1974 Albin Ballad 'Summertime' 

Free to a New Home

Afloat in Plymouth

Summertime has been co-owned and then owned fully by the current owners for over 20 years. She is in good condition for her age and was raced regularly in Plymouth Sound until September 2024. Her engine is a 2GM20 Yanmar and it was serviced in May 2025. She has multiple genoas (Light No 1, Heavy No 1, No 2, No 3,) three spinnakers, Main (serviced April 2025). She had a new mast and rigging in 2011. She has mast head Raymarine windex and Tacktick readout in the cockpit. Garmin GPS and ICON IC-M411 radio. Two batteries new in April 2024. Spinnaker pole. Fenders. 

Being aware that there are two other Ballads already on the market in the area, the current owners are offering the boat for free to a new home. They would dearly like to see Summertime continue to be sailed as she has been well maintained.
