Thanks, she is a great boat and we hope to find a good home for her. The Odyssey is similar to the Alberg 30 but is a different boat. Designed for the SF Bay, with lead ballast (Alberg 30 has iron) and slightly higher displacement. About 20 were built in the SF Bay, not by Whitby like the A30.

Re: Alberg Odyssey 30 Yawl For Sale

A friend of mine has had one for well over 25 years. "Jotimo" has been to Mexico from San Fran about a dozen times and Hawaii, I think twice. A no nonsense, practical, inexpensive cruiser. Unlike the bar of soap looking plastic boats, these stand the test of time.

Re: Alberg Odyssey 30 Yawl For Sale

Alright CS, Not one of those links measure air draft. And, since the odyssey were made to Alberg's original plans and not the commercial Alberg 30, the air draft would be different than a A30 anyway. Since I have a bridge to go under to park my boat, the air draft is a important consideration before I explore further buying this boat.
BTW, the water draft is different too.
I found this all out by a couple of google searches.

Water Draft is 5'2", varying slightly depending on load.
Air draft is a bit under 40'. I may be able to get a more precise number if it is critical but not an issue for us. Only bridges we crossed were on the Napa River, which open, and the Bay and Golden Gate bridges.

Will be showing the the boat Saturday 6/11. Please contact me through the Craigslist ad/phone if you are interested.

We have been in contact with the owners of Jatimo, who have cruised her extensively with great success.

As far as I can tell 18 hulls were built. I've come across 8 of these, and 6 of them cruised internationally. At least one circumnavigated (Ben Wells on Dawntreader in the 80s). Pretty good portion of a small fleet.

Re: Alberg Odyssey 30 Yawl For Sale

Someone is going to get a great boat! Rare classic! BTW there are a few slips available in Channel Islands harbor if a buyer can't afford SB and wants to keep it local. It would be a great island boat.

Re: Alberg Odyssey 30 Yawl For Sale

Thanks Don, but this is still not the ketch. (Its not as easy as it looks :/) I was hoping the ketch would be low enough.
