Nova is a 33 foot yacht
designed by Peter Norlin for Albin Marine.
The idea was to attract Albin Ballad owners,
who was very happy with their boats,
switching to Albin Nova. The boat was
made 1981-1987 and 1988-1990 in Visby on
Bianca Shipyard in Denmark.
Today, there's no new production.
There is not much that separates the
different vintages, suggesting a good basic
design.
Albin Nova has more volume
in the hull than other boats of the same
length, despite a relatively narrow hull. It
has a spacious lounge with good height.
The forward
cabin is spacious and big enough for two
adults.
On the port side is a
kitchenette with Cooker with oven,
refrigerator, sink and vanity surfaces.
Albin Nova
33 is a
very nice boat to sail.
Slow movements and
moderately stiff but not dumb.
Albin Nova is well
represented at the club regattas around the
country.
