Owner NOTES:

Tunica” is an extremely well maintained yacht, masterfully refit by Cruising yacht services in 2016. Since its refit there are signs of normal wear and tear. The Alberg 30 is a wonderful example of a do it all pocket cruiser. With simple systems and elegant lines this boat sails like a dream. Set up currently it is nearly a turnkey yacht ready to be put in the water at your convenience. Located at Amelia Island Marina
