This shippy little craft is almost indistinguishable from a number of similar Alberg designs. For example, the South Coast 23, a foot longer on deck but pretty much the same in her proportions, comes to mind. (We owned a South Coast 23 for nine years; see page 255 for details.) There are a dozen Alberg designs represented in this book, and at least half of them have close to the same silhouette as the "22" shown here. The boat is very good for weekend cruising, though you may find she will get a bit crowded if you bring the kids along. She was built in Canada, first, from about 1967 to 1969, by Douglas Marine Craft of
Port Stanley, Ontario. When that firm closed shop, Nye Yachts, also in Ontario, acquired the molds and continued production from about 1970 to 1987. Best features: The high B/D ratio and long keel provide easy steering and relatively good comfort in cruising mode. The outboard well in the lazarette makes engine access easier and avoids prop cavitation in all but the choppiest seas. Worst features: Unless you are planning to challenge other Albergs of similar size, forget racing. The keel isn't deep enough to take a big enough bite for good close-hauled performance.
