Hi all, today is a sad day for me because I found out that my job is requiring me to relocate from Florida to Seattle! Unfortunately, there is no way I can justify the cost of transporting my 28 TE to the other side of the country and I won't be traveling home enough to justify keeping it either.

I bought this boat from Norseman about a year ago and he did an amazing job at detailing all the work he did, please review here: https://www.albinowners.net/aog/viewtop ... =5&t=10612

When I bought this boat I looked for several years before I pulled the trigger, I saw a lot of 28s in various different conditions but this was one of only 2 that I found that was this well maintained. This boat is 100% turnkey and has excellent maintenance history / records.

Good luck with the sale! I purchased my 28 in Stuart FL and had it shipped to Seattle - the transport cost isn't as bad as you may think if you shop around. If you are thinking of purchasing another after your move - there are a lot fewer Albins to choose from in the northwest, and they tend to have a price premium on them out here compared to the east coast. The Alaska bulkhead is a nice option to have in the PNW if you can find one.

All good feedback, I have shopped it quite a bit and I just can’t justify it. That plus not being familiar with the boating scene there makes me very hesitant to drag her that far. I’d be eternally frustrated if I did the transport then found out I wanted something different for the area (which is what I think would happen) . I imagine my PNW boat will be fully enclosed as you mentioned, I may even switch to a sailboat for a while once I get settled in!

We’ll see what happens in time but for now, this is a stellar boat for anyone looking in the East Coast!

Congrats! A bunch of us have followed this boat on these forums. Great purchase, enjoy it. Are you moving it out west?

Thank you!

Not permanently relocating it. Bought it to do “The Great Loop” starting likely in April. I honestly have no idea if I’ll keep it beyond that voyage.

I wanted a solid vessel under 30’ with a shallow draft that I could solo thru locks, and putter along at 1 gal/hr fuel consumption (or thereabouts). No interest in going fast. Just me and the dog. Other than getting on/off, I’m certain he’ll love it.

I like having the small cabin, absolutely love the classy style, and with a few deck chairs and my verrry lovable dog, I expect I’ll meet many a new friend over however long the trip takes.

Boating in AZ is almost non-existent so it’ll likely never come here. If I do keep it, it’ll have to reside in FL or I’ll move it to CA.

Good looking boat, for sure! I am in Palatka, my boat is currently in Jax, on the Ortega River, Sadler Point Marina for maintenance.
