Albin 24 (27) Getaway was a 70's 25 Deluxe

Post by allante »

So in my search for the perfect 28TE I stumbled across a 24 Getaway. Dont know much yet but Im told brand new Yanmar engine and on an aluminum trailer. Needs restoration $10k

Looking for info/thoughts on the 24 Getaway. I believe less than 50 were made.
thanx

My first result on Google brought me back to this forum. This post has some helpful info if you haven't already seen it:

New motor and the trailer both sound promising. The asking price is probably less than those two alone.

I saw one in person at a neighboring marina. I liked the looks of it.

It looks like a 4/5 scale version of a 28TE. Even the interior layout is similar.

The downside I heard is the weight. Supposedly, very heavy for its size. A Yanmar diesel is a plus. And a trailer too? Double plus.

I always said my third Albin would be a Getaway.

Hmmm....
