1977 ALAJUELA YACHT CORP

Acerca de SIR TUFFY

Built by Alajuela Yacht Corp in 1977, Sir Tuffy is an 11.58-metre sailing yacht of the Alajuela 38 model — a vessel designed from the outset for serious offshore and bluewater cruising. She reflects a construction philosophy that prioritised substance, conservative engineering and proven hull forms, with the expectation that she would perform reliably across long ocean passages. She is a factory-finished example that has remained close to her original configuration, without the kind of cumulative modifications that can complicate a buyer's assessment of an older vessel.

Sir Tuffy offers two cabins, providing a practical and comfortable layout for a couple or a small group of experienced sailors. Her traditional proportions and bluewater-oriented design give her a purposeful character that distinguishes her from lighter production sailboats of the same era. As an intact, factory-finished Alajuela 38, she represents a straightforward and honest example of what this builder set out to achieve.

Sir Tuffy is well suited to buyers looking for a capable and seaworthy bluewater cruising sailboat with a clear, uncluttered history. She appeals particularly to experienced sailors who appreciate traditional offshore construction and are seeking a yacht that remains true to its original design intent — without the uncertainty that often comes with heavily modified vessels of similar age.
