Hi,
We are considering purchasing a 1981 Albin 36 aft cabin. Does anyone know whether these boats have a manual back up emergency bilge pump? I looked at several other trawlers and they all have manual pumps. I didn't see one in the boat we are considering. Any input is appreciated...
Thanks,
Mark

Re: Albin 36 manual bilge pump
In my 40, the pump is mounted inside the step at the helm entry door.

Re: Albin 36 manual bilge pump
I'm too old to work a manual pump. My 36 DC had a nasty leak at the rudder post, I just added 2 extra bilge pumps with floats and bought an electric (110 V) sump pump for if things got really bad. I didn't have time to fix the leak, which incidentally fixed itself after about a week. Anyway..my 36 did not come with or have a manual pump.
