Albin 28 storage/upgrades

[Matthew]

Please share your upgrades or storage ideas. I'm looking for a 28 but coming from a 38 so I'll have to get creative!! What's in the captains pedistal? Could there be more/ longer drawers in both pedestals? I was thinking of a short Bimini aft of the hard top with a net to store all my life jackets and abandon ship bag.

Welcome aboard, Matthew, if I haven't said so already.

We had the same challenge coming from a 32. Here's a thread to get you started: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5921&p=35039&hilit=storage#p35039.

Happy to help you find stuff in the forum, but the search function works well if you're so inclined.

there is nothing in the captains pedestal, so yes you can put a larger storage system in there - its on my short list right after I put in new (comfier) helm seats. if you contact Tagteam I know his boat (which is currently for sale) has a larger storage system under the helm seat. you could potentially put SLIGHTLY bigger drawers under the port side seat but you have to be careful as you run into the 1/4 berth. Honestly on a flush deck I would just use that area as storage as its pretty tight, on a engine box model its a larger area. There are plently of areas as highlighted in nancy's link above to create more storage in the 28te
