A 1965 Alberg 30, purchased for $2,500 in 2017, underwent a $46,000 mid-circumnavigation refit to address structural and mechanical deficiencies.0:48 The owner prioritized a solid, non-cored fiberglass hull and an encapsulated keel to ensure blue-water capability, rejecting modern thin-laminate hulls and bolt-on keels.2:51 Initial refit efforts in Langkawi, Malaysia, cost $6,000 and included repainting all exterior surfaces, installing a used electric windlass, replacing running rigging, and varnishing interior woodwork.12:27 Despite these upgrades, the vessel lacked reliable propulsion and a functional dinghy.15:44 A subsequent $60,000 crowdfunding campaign allowed for a second refit phase in Phuket, Thailand, which included hauling the boat to build a new rudder and installing a new diesel engine.21:18 The owner argues that purchasing a $30,000 boat would have required similar expenditures to reach blue-water standards, as most vessels in that price range still require extensive rigging, sail, and equipment upgrades.11:41
