Interesting that you narrowed the model years to a fairly tight window. Reasoning?

I came up with those years after looking at the market and my price range $50-$65k. I favor the engine box model. I'm really just looking for the right used albin. I just missed two in my area by a week but I'm hopeful something will come up.

Welcome Jokerhigh: Your's is a good choice. Some very nice 28te's out there. Your price range may be a bit low, but it all depends upon engines, hours and desire to sell. Best luck to you. Stay in touch.

Thanks. Let the search begin !!!

It also depends on the deal you can find. I got a boat that needed some freshening up and was being sold because of health issues. It was very well optioned (genny, ac, outriggers, etc) I got it for about 1/2 your budget and out another 8-9k into it and some sweat equity. Just keep your eyes out and the right boat will find you!

I want to thank everyone for there encouragement I was able to find a great deal on a 1997 Albin 28 "Salty dogs"
She was delivered last week. I been working all weekend cleaning her up and running her around the bay.
Thanks again
Two questions:
If anybody has any info on solar power it would be appreciated I keep her on mooring and I need to keep one battery charge for bilge pump.
I'm also looking for a diesel mechanic in the Annapolis area that can work on the beast for regular /preventive maintenance. Until I can learn the basics.

Thanks again
Eric
