I'm not familiar with this layout, looks to be a 27FC platform from the outside, but a totally different floor plan from any I've seen. I admit, I'm fairly new to the Albin boats, but have never run across one like this, yet.

I think that is a 30 FC, but I could be wrong?

This is listed as a 1986, and I think the 30FC was introduced in 2004?
Side windows and high sides full length are vastly different, among other subtle differences I've found.

At first I thought is was a heavily reworked 27FC, but the center scuttle to the galley looks original.

That's a puzzler, it could be a 27, but the deck and liner molds would have to have been completely different. I not real familiar with the 30 FC, but the deck house on that one is also different than anyone of those that I've seen.
