Thanks for the link. I looked it over and found a lot of information to go over. I am worried that I might quickly want more room than the Vega offers, but I am not worried about the seaworthiness of her.
Thanks again
Dan

will take a look
I will go by and take a look on Saturday. I'd planned to get a Cape Dory, and was even looking at the larger sizes, 27-31, but the price on the Albin Vega seems to be tough to pass by, especially for a newer sailor. By the way, and I may need to post this in a separate thread, any thought as to the ...

Albin Vega
Ok, the plan was to research this fall and winter and buy a Cape Dory 27 in winter-early spring. WEll... I have found a deal on a 1972 Albin Vega reported to be in decent shape for less than $7000. It has a 2 cylinder Universal diesel with under 1000 hours on it. I explained to the boat yard selling...

Tons of pictures/ no "in person" visits yet
I have looked over photos on places such as Yachtworld and Boattrader frequently, in fact it probably borders on needing a support group, but I have not been on a Cape Dory yet. I haven't reached out to any boats for sale yet because I want to know exactly which model I am looking for, 27-31, the ge...

Thanks again
From all the helpful information provided, I am pretty sure that once I get the Cape Dory, I'll have the answer to the V-berth worked out. Now there's only about a thousand other questions I need to work through before making the purchase.
Thanks

Thanks
Thanks for all the information. I live about 40 minutes from the Chesapeake so there are boats around, I just wanted to know that I am on the right track with the 27. I've taken a 5 Day ASA 101 Basic Keelboat class and went out with friends a few times, but I am looking at the Cape Dory 27 to really...

Cape Dory 27 Accomodations
I am beginning the search for my first boat. I plan to buy in the winter/early spring so I am trying to do my research now. I am wondering how large is the v-berth in the 27 and 28. I believe that some of the 28's and 30's have the settee that converts to a double berth, but not the 27. I was wonder...
