1990 Alden 50- Price Reduction $229,000

Rarely does a classic of this pedigree come on the market in such upgraded and well-maintained condition and at such a bargain price.

'Agape' was hauled out and in storage in a Lloyds approved cradle in Nanny Cay Marine in the British Virgin islands during hurricane Irma in 2017 and received minor damages. In December of 2018, a well-known cruiser and very experienced marine surveyor who is also an experienced yachtsman, undertook a four month, $100k refit which included not just replacing the mast with a factory original Hood in-mast furling spar and re-rigging the boat, but encompassed a complete renovation of the majority of her systems and an updating of the vessels' DC systems to contemporary standards which included a large solar array, all new batteries and a modern wireless monitoring system.

Also completed was a faring and some non-hurricane related renovations to her bottom as deemed appropriate and a major servicing of the drive train and engine and bow thruster undertaken, and the port side of the hull was touched up and clear coated, and so that the flag blue hull looks fabulous.

With her powerful engine and efficient, easy to handle sail plan, 'Agape' is a joy to experience underway. Below decks she is sumptuous and elegant with private accommodations for six to eight and a galley that is both easy to work in underway and is well out of the traffic flow with more than adequate counterspace and storage.

Re: 1990 Alden 50- Price Reduction $229,000

I am curious as to the extent of the damage to the vessel. It must have fallen over to have the mast irrevocably damaged. There also must have been damage to the hull. I would be most curious to learn of the procedure to repair the boat. I'd be interested in a photo journal of the damage and repair process. This is the kind of boat I'm looking for to serve as a live-aboard. I am self funded.

Please provide additional information.

Re: 1990 Alden 50- Price Reduction $229,000

Old threae, boat likely long since sold...

But I note with some curiosity that nowhere in the post is the hull construction or underwater shape mentioned. They list every small item of inventory but fail to specify the important stuff.

Strange way to promote a cruising boat IMO.
