Alberg 30 Keel Dimensions

Post by Cruiser2B »

Looking for some help. I am building a trailer for my Alberg 30 and I am working on keel support. Can anyone tell me the length of the keel from just forward of the rudder shoe to the front of the keel? And also the keel width? My best guess from looking at pictures is about 9-10" wide and about 8ft long. Been driving around local boat yards, No Albergs... closest one I know of is about 2hrs away.

Thank you for any and all help.

thank you, looked at that link earlier in my search. it has great info but does not specifically list keel width that i could see...(i am blind or so my wife says) so it may be there. From those drawings is where I guessed about keel being about 8 ft.

Thank you for help.

Thanks to everyone who offered up help. James Baldwin of Atomvoyage.com was a great help. He not only provided dimensions but also pictures and a sketch. I will be posting pictures and measurements on my blog as I go.

Hoping this rain will clear out so I can get started this weekend
