Albin 57
The Albin 57 is a Swedish sailboat that was designed by Rolf Magnusson as a coastal cruiser and first built in 1977.
The boat's designation is its metric length overall in decimetres.
The design was built by Albin Marine in Sweden between 1977 and 1981, with about 400 boats completed, but it is now out of production.
The Albin 57 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig with aluminum spars, wire standing rigging and a single set of swept spreaders. The hull has a raked stem, a plumb transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a swing keel. It displaces 1,764 lb (800 kg) and carries 562 lb (255 kg) of ballast.
The boat has a draft of 4.26 ft (1.30 m) with the swing keel extended and 1.97 ft (0.60 m) with it retracted, allowing ground transportation on a trailer.
The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and manoeuvring.
The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and two straight settees in the main cabin. The galley is located at the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove. There are hull-mounted rectangular ports on both sides of the boat.
For sailing the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker of 269 sq ft (25.0 m2). It has a hull speed of 5.43 kn (10.06 km/h).
