New to me boat, old owner

Post by nan1rik1 »

First year in an 2001 Albin 32+2, brought down from Port Judith, RI to Norwalk Ct. in the beginning of December. A step up from our previous boat, a Rosborough 246 which was a great boat but we needed something larger with more amenities. First time for a diesel and rudder, have always had OB or IO, lots to learn.

Enjoy the 32+2. Really nice boats, especially after adding the extended hull under the platform. Great cruising boat for two.

While I really, really, love my 28TE as a fishing boat that is comfortable for a weekend away from home, for extended cruising for a couple, I don't think you can beat the 32+2 or 35 CB. We are starting to think about the next step, and I just can't find anything that fills all those needs for less money. When you start out with the rudder & inboard it's like waking up on a different planet. A year later you can't imagine going back, and those idiots with the pod drives should just buy an RV. Keep us informed as you go forward....

Welcome to AOG. That is a great boat. I looked seriously at one last summer. Just couldn't give up my 28.
