New here and need some input
I am a second time Albin owner previously owning a 31 and unfortunately circumstances made me give up the 31 and I now have the 28. I love my Albins. This one does not have air-conditioning or generator and I am first looking to install a C with a small portable generator and not really sure where the unit would go. The manufacture of the AC states I need to know whether it’s left right or an up configuration of the discharge. Any thoughts and/or pictures would be helpful

The stock 6000 BTU AC unit goes below the V-berth.
Not sure where you would instal a genset, but heard about a few 28TEs with generators.
Perhaps a Honda 2000 on the swim platform would do the trick.?
A diesel generator installed, or shoehorned in, would likely be $12k or more.
I rather enjoy the piece and quite at anchor without no stinking generator.
The only times we needed A/C was at Marinas and no generator needed as 30 amp shore power was widely available.
