Unfortunately I am going to Europe tomorrow for 14 days. But I would like to look at the boat when I return if it is still available. I had an Albin 27 FC which I sold last year and now wish I didn't.

Boat is now out of the water in Warwick RI.
Had it out for a couple of days a few weeks ago. Paid closer attention to the speed and rpms.
1800 rpm - 7.5 knts.
2000 rpm - 8 knts.
1.1 gals./hr. at 2000 rpm

I shortened the width of the bench seat a year ago. It allows the boat owner to open up both doors to the engine room without removing the seat. Makes access much easier.

Back on the market. Survey and sea trial done. Surveyor found a little water in the floor around the rear railings and a little around the bow pulpit. Fix those issues in the off-season and you will have an almost perfect boat. Engine and everything else check out great. She is a nice boat.

She is currently in a slip in Cranston RI. for little while longer. It would a great time to take a look at her and take it for a spin.
