The Alberg 22 is a recreational keelboat designed by Swedish-American naval architect Carl Alberg and first built in 1970.[1][2][3]
The design was built by Nye Yachts in Belleville, Ontario, later located in Bloomfield, Ontario, Canada. A total of 180 boats were produced.[1][4]
Design
The Alberg 22 is built predominantly of fiberglass, with teak wooden handrails and toe rails, plus other trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a raised transom, a keel-mounted rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed long keel. It displaces 3,200 lb (1,451 kg) and carries 1,540 lb (699 kg) of ballast. Due to its weight and full keel it has been noted as handling like a larger boat.[1][3]
The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor of up to 6 hp (4 kW) for docking and maneuvering. The outboard motor is fitted to a transom well and the lazarette has space for the fuel tank.[1][3]
Accommodations are provided for four people in a forward "V"-berth and two quarter berths. The galley is equipped with a sink with a water pump and a removable icebox.[3]
Fitted equipment includes genoa tracks and winches, as well as a halyard winch.[3]
The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 282 with a high of 276 and low of 288. It has a hull speed of 5.36 kn (9.93 km/h).[5]
