2016 Alerion Express 28

The Alerion Express 28 combines traditional styling above the waterline with a modern hull design below, delivering both classic lines and strong sailing performance. At 28 feet with an 8-foot 2-inch beam, this fiberglass sloop balances elegance with practical capability.

The cockpit and cabin are laid out to maximize usable space, making the boat well suited for overnight passages for two or weekend cruising. The open cockpit comfortably seats four to six. The self-tacking jib boom simplifies handling and allows for easy single-handed sailing. A single 14-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine provides auxiliary power. The boat features one head.

The Alerion Express 28 is known for its balanced helm and responsive sailing characteristics, equally appealing to those seeking relaxed cruising or spirited performance. This 2016 model is a late-year production example and has been well maintained.
