Hello, I have an Albin 27' FC (1980) down in Turks and Caicos Islands. I live in Vancouver BC. Between the two places I am on the water a lot of the time. My only regret is that I don't have an Albin 27 up here in Pacific NW as well! I have enjoy my vessel " Salt Chuck" down in the Islands and have been re-fitting it as I can. A fresh Izuzu engine and good hull makes a great moveable get-a-way, yet a few years ( before I bought it, and since) of UV and salty trade winds blowin' has deterioated the wiring and the plastic ports. I have refit just about eveything and added a few pieces, and I am very happy with my Albin. I have owned a number of craft before, wooden vintage, fiberglas, power and sail and am glad to own my 27 FC. Any wiring harness schematics out there? Love to see one or I will redo to my specs I guess. I will post some pics of my vessel soon. Glad to find this forum ( first one for me) thanks and happy and safe boating!

Hello TCI. Welcome to AOG. I moved your other post to the A-27 forum. I think you will get better answers there.

Thanks for joining.
