excluded / 9 - score 0%
The Alpa a8 is a 26.25ft masthead sloop designed by John H. Illingworth and built in fiberglass by Alpa Yachts (ITA) since 1974.
The Alpa a8 is a moderate weight sailboat which is slightly under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
