Description

The Alpa 42 is a Sparkman and Stephens design built in 1979 by Alpa Shipyard in Milano, Italy. This solidly built centre cockpit makes a comfortable cruising boat. Her ketch rig and windlass controls in the cockpit make her easy to sail shorthanded. 'Last Lady' has been nicely looked after and has only had three owners.
