Welcome bhofler! You are in the right place to find one. BC that is. Well, AOG as well. I know of a couple of folks who may be “maturing out”…aging out seems cruel to say. How about moving to the next adventure?

Tell us more about yourself, your boating adventures, I see you name Secret Cove as home port. We were there two summers ago and hope to return next year.

Keep your eyes and ears open. Check into Albineers of BC, too. There’s a great group of folks and a passel of A25s. You could even make your way to one of their monthly rendezvouses (is that the right spelling?) You might even get hit up for joining. Took them several years of us attending their rallies before we thought we should join. Ha!

Good luck! Keep us posted. Check local ads. Some folks don’t know what treasures they have.

Thanks Willie..,

I’m older too..,lots of boats beginning with Albin Vega. We currently own a Fisher NE 30 which is for sale. Just getting too big to handle. Would consider an albin 25 as part trade.
We always liked the Albin 25 and it would be our last boat if we can find one that fits our needs.
I do watch the Albineers as well so we’ll see what comes up.

Cheers
Brian

The WillieC probably should have been our last boat, but we thought (think?) we have one more boat in us. I'm currently trying to bring our new(er) boat up to where we got the WillieC over the course of ten years. Only this time I'm hoping to accomplish it in one year, thus we are not in BC now.

The Fisher is one of those boats we have always been intrigued by. But yes, bigger, all those pesky sails, not exactly trailerable...You'll find an A25. I'll let you know if I hear of any...(Steve, are you listening?)

Brian,

If you haven't found an Albin 25 by next spring (2024) keep a weather eye out for my La Dolce Vita. It's currently in Arizona, but next season we'll be back up to Washington in late May/early June for one last Puget Sound/San Juans/Gulf Islands cruise before putting ours up for sale on consignment in Olympia. Comes with trailer, 8 ft Gig Harbor Nisqually hard shell dinghy on lift davits & 2.5 HP 2 stroke Tohatsu outboard. I'm sure the broker could help with the import/export red tape. Also comes with mast & sail rig (not shown)

Thanks for the reply...I will keep an eye out for sure. Questions.
How may hours on the engine, do you have a composting head, are electronics fairly up to date, is fridge in good condition?

Thanks,
Brian

Fisher NE 30.
If anyone is interested, I have a 1974 Fisher NE 30 Motorsailer for sale. It is in good condition with new tan bark sails, electronics, compositing head, Kubota 44 HP engine in excellent condition.
I would consider an Albin 25 as part trade. Contact me off line for details.

Hi, I have a 1975 A25 deluxe that has been converted to a fisherman model with enclosed pilot house and back fishing deck. It was brought down ironically from the sunshine coast to Newport Oregon. I have been restoring it for the last 5 years. It is about 90% complete with the cabin remodel to finish. I have built the new cabinets but they are not yet finished and installed. The boat has been repowered with a Yanmar 2qm20 and lots of new parts. It has a double axle galvanized trailer with rollers. Included is the full sail rig and full Raymarine C120 navigation package as well as a Tohatsu 5 hp backup motor. I am making a full post with pics. I am asking around $18,000. The motor runs like a clock and has about 700 hours I was told.
