About the ALPA 6.7
van de Stadt #197. (Shown here is actually the ALPA 6. The 6.7 has a slightly different coach roof)
The Alpa 6.7 is a compact, lightweight masthead sloop designed by E. G. van de Stadt and built by Alpa (ITA) in 1968. With a displacement of 1900.0 lb and a LOA of 21.82 ft, it represents a specific era of Italian small-craft production, though the exact number of hulls built remains unverified in available data.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for coastal day sailing and light weekend cruising due to its shallow 3.28 ft draft and low displacement, making it ideal for owners with limited storage or trailerability requirements.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 2.23 and a comfort ratio of 11.84, the Alpa 6.7 is not recommended for extended offshore passages, as its light displacement and small size limit its seakeeping ability in heavy weather.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include other late-1960s European 21-footers like the O'Day 21 or early Catalina 22, sharing similar masthead sloop rigs and fin keel configurations aimed at the entry-level cruising market.
