""I've owned my Alerion Express 28 for over 15 years and I still enjoy sailing her as much as I did when I first purchased her. Despite this boats' popularity in recent years, I still receive compliments on her beauty, style and grace each time I sail her! I've owned several boats of all shapes and size but this boat will hold it's place in our family for years to come." "
