1989 Alden 50'15m

S/Y SHADOW is a very well maintained and equipped Alden 50' that was designed and built by one of New England's highest quality semi custom builders. The successive owners have made ongoing upgrades and proper service. Her classic profile with aft cockpit is a standout wherever she cruises. 

This exceptionally strong, sea kindly performance cruising yacht has an exquisite two stateroom varnished teak interior and is very well equipped for extended shorthanded offshore cruising. Her shoal draft keel with hydraulic centerboard allows access to many more sailing areas and harbors.
