Review of Acnno Dalit 35?

[seamonk]

Anyone know anything specific about the Accno Dalite 35? I’m fairly up to speed on French aluminum centerboard cruising boats in general. But I’m not familiar with this specific model and can’t find much about them here or elsewhere on the net.

Any info on their build quality or sailing quirks would be much appreciated. There’s one for sail here in Ireland and I’m currently without a boat…so…

I think this is the boat in question:

First off, the builder is ACNNO. A knowledge of French would be helpful: https://www.bateaux.com/plaisance/vo...REF6dTVM5g-dJQ,
It would not seem that ACNNO is still in business, though they were apparently located on the island of Noirmoutier, in France. Looks like the boat is a fairly heavy, hard-chined centerboarder built for cruising. At least one of the ones for sale has suffered from electrolysis and needed repairs because of it. If construction of them stopped in 1988, as the link suggests, that would be something to watch out for. Having the marketing department pick a different name than dalite - the lowest Hindu caste - might have been a better choice.
