The Albin Cumulus is a stylish and well-built Scandinavian cruising yacht offering sparkling performance and a comfortable cruising interior. 'Poco Loco' is a very good example which was imported into the UK from Sweden in June 2022, and has clearly benefitted from the many years of short seasons and undercover storage that she was until recently used to! If you are looking for a capable performance cruising yacht or occasional club racer she could make a great alternative to a Contessa 28, Sadler 29, or Oyster 26.
