The
AE 38 Proves That
Good Looks Run In The Family
This is the long limbed big sister to all the Alerion Express models and a
strong family resemblance is evident in the balanced overhangs, delicate
sheer and proportionate cabin. A combination of modern underwater lines and
a new deck, cockpit, cabin and topside by the Pearson design Group has
produced a yacht that lives up to the Herreshoff legacy of classic beauty.
The amazing strength of a modern carbon fiber mast by Hall Spars safely
allows the elimination of the backstay, which in turn frees the mainsail for
significantly larger size and better aerodynamic shape-proven by record
setting windsurfers, multihulls and America's Cup contenders. Sail control
by electric winches enables one person to hoist, reef, trim and lower sail,
all from the wheel station. With the patented Hoyt Jib Boom adding offwind
power, this is a 2 sail, self tacking rig that projects more sail area than
any ordinary rig with a 150% genoa. The payoff is excellent light wind and
offwind speed-all easily single-handed. Sail tests indicate speed superior
to the competition and all for more reasonable price. |
