A 1966 Alberg 35 is walked through in detail by its owner, with Mark examining the boat as a prospective buyer or advisor. The hull is original gel coat over a dark blue layer blown into the mold to block light transmission — not as thin as it appears.1:21 A loose deck fitting at the stern pulpit has a failed custom stainless-stud backer the owner fabricated; the deck otherwise feels solid, with no known delamination.2:01 Chainplates show surface rust and may need replacement, but are not glassed in, making the job straightforward on this stick-built hull.7:18 The keel is a glassed-in lead weight with no keel bolts.8:07 Water tanks are two Monnell units — one aft, one under the cabin sole.8:22 The engine heat exchanger has been boiled out; filters, oil, and thermostat are current.5:46 Sail inventory includes a mainsail with slab reefing, working jib, storm jib, and two genoas (a 197 and a 194), plus a spinnaker.9:22 The boom carries a screw-roller sail-furling system.8:28 Winches are Merriman classics.10:05 The owner recommends a survey before purchase to protect both parties and satisfy lenders and insurers.2:27 Brightwork maintenance runs every six months: tape off, sand, two to three coats of varnish.0:30
