- "The Alden
Design Office was founded by John G. Alden in 1909 and he and
his office was, by 1932, known worldwide in part due to his "Malabar"
design's success on the offshore racing scene between 1923 and 1932.
John Alden is best known for his fast and seaworthy offshore boats but
he designed a broad range of exceptional boats and most of his designs
have become true classics and many still turn heads, as do their contemporaries
that bear his name. For although different in hull form, keel and rig
from their predecessors, today's Alden Designs reflect the same philosophy
John bestowed on his original designs. Our Design Office is located
in Boston, not far from where John Alden started out. Boston, with its
highly developed infrastructure, an international airport only minutes
away, and extensive technical support, is ideally suited for a company
soon to celebrate its 100 years in business."
