Albin 36 Stratus
Description
The Albin Stratus 36 (also known as the Stratus 36 or 107 Stratus) is a Swedish-designed racer-cruiser sailboat that evolved from the winning 'Regnbågen' prototype in the 1979 3/4 Ton Cup held in Hundested, Denmark. Crafted by naval architect Peter Norlin, it was produced by Albin Marine in Kristinehamn, Sweden, from 1980 to 1984, with about 130 units built before production shifted briefly to South Korea (1984–1986) for a few more hulls. This fractional-rigged sloop features a fin keel and spade rudder for spirited performance, blending IOR racing heritage with practical cruising amenities.
