Cirrus 78 albin


21 / 228 - score 73%

The Cirrus 78 albin is a 25.59ft fractional sloop designed by Peter Norlin and built in fiberglass by Albin Marine between 1979 and 1984.

The Cirrus 78 albin is a moderate weight sailboat which is under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.

This boat has a reasonable score and ranks in the top quarter. It is a good choice.
