The Allegro 27 is an award-winning classic canoe stern design, a capable compact bluewater cruiser built in Sweden to the high standard we have come to expect from Scandinavian manufacturers. ‘Papalagui’ is a delightful solidly built boat, fitted with wind vane self-steering ideal for long passages, and she is well-proven, having sailed across the Atlantic and cruised in the Caribbean.
