Operational history In a review Michael McGoldrick wrote, "this full keel boat has the proportions of a classic sailboat.

The Alberg 22 heels over fairly easily at first, but it reaches a point where it locks in and goes. The full keel and high ballast displacement ratio (almost 50%) suggests that this boat should be able to handle some rough conditions." In a 2010 review Steve Henkel wrote, "This shippy little craft is almost indistinguishable from a number of similar Alberg designs ... The boat is very good for weekend cruising, though you may find she will get a bit crowded if you bring the kids along ... Best features: The high B/D ratio and long keel provide easy steering and relatively good comfort in cruising mode. The outboard well in the lazarette makes engine access easier and avoids prop cavitation in all but
