Noob Hello

Post by Veprjack »

Selling my Pearson303 to buy a motorboat. Albin is a possibility. With a $30K :roll: budget, this live aboard guy is prob looking at the 27' or even a 25'. Kinda small? But... Plan to start looking at them next week.

After becoming frustrated with The quality, etc. of 34'-40' Mainship, Marine Traders, etc, someone suggested going small, but quality and put Albin at the top. I plan to USE my boat, not just live on it. I am single and don't mind tight quarters so...

Looking forward to learning and meeting you, even if I don't end up an Albin owner!

Welcome aboard!

Quite a difference between a 40 Mainship and a 25 Albin! :-)

Good luck with your search. I'm sure you'll get plenty of good information from the AOG crew.

Wow. That will be a huge size change for you. However, maintenance and costs to keep up the smalle boat should be helpful.
The one forsale here in red trim interior looks like a nice one.
Welcome and best of luck in your search.
