DAVE: An Albin Salvage yard would be nice to hold the older boats together. We are all going to get there. Happy to see you are doing the motorsailer. Wish you lots of success and hope that their are members with information on your 1972 25 Albin. Most things can be built or rebuilt if you have the time, patience and do we dare save "money". When i was redoing the Luhrs the most expensive single problem was the Yanmar parts. They could be found but the price was always factory set high - the Yanmar dealer claimed. Who made your particular engne? I keep being surprised at how many Albin boats and members are out west. Seems like San Fran. is doing well these days.

Boathog,
Take a look around Ebay. I seem to remember some parts up for sale.
