Overview

Second Wind is an excellent example of what is arguably one of the very best all-around boats in the world, the Alden 45.

Originally built for a highly detailed and experienced sailor, she is well suited for either coastal cruising or extended passage making.

She has two large private cabins, one head, separate large stall shower, and U-shaped galley with excellent counter space and storage.

Sail handling is made easy with a Leisurefurl boom and electric halyard winch. 

Inside stored in the off season and lightly used in the northeast's relatively short season, she does not show her age and will impress.

"Simply a gorgeous sailing yacht in excellent condition built by one of America's finest boat yards." Well worth consideration.
