2002Albin28 Tournament Express

Rare Cummins 370 HP! This is a 20 knot cruise boat. Chesapeake Bay, Second owner since 2006. Come see. 

Accommodations below are compact but more complete than typical of fishing boats of this size. There is a U-shaped dinette forward, an enclosed head with shower to starboard, an efficiency galley to port and small-ish double berth to port tucked under the bridgedeck. 

There have been more than 1,000 Albin 28s built to date. Her length is 28' 4" on deck, beam is 10' even, draft is 3' 2" and displacement is 7,500 lbs.

She is solidly constructed utilizing conservative, time proven construction techniques and quality materials. Core materials are used in the construction of both the hull and deck structures although care is taken to use non-absorbent materials at through-hull fittings and attachments. Vinylester resin is used in outer laminates and osmotic blistering has not been a problem.

Structural strength is provided by two fiberglass-encapsulated longitudinal stringers and plywood bulkheads all securely and neatly attached with fiberglass tabbing. The hull and deck are joined in a shoebox fashion with adhesive sealant as well as nuts, bolts and washers. The quality of construction, fit and finish is at the level of upscale productions builders.

Although some will find the Albin 28 a comfortable weekend or pocket cruiser, I think it is safe to assume that most people interested in this boat will have some fishing in mind. The 75 sq. ft. cockpit has padded bolsters around the 28' high sides, a live baitwell, rod racks under the cockpit combing on both sides and several lined deck boxes that can be used for storage of iced and used for fish boxes. The cockpit has a raised engine box which, on the plus side, can be used for extra seating or as a table. A transom door allows easy boarding as well as access to the swim platform.

The configuration of the bridgedeck includes a starboard helm and a mate's seat to port. Side decks are nearly a foot wide with stainless steel handrails on the hardtop and a welded stainless life steel rail along the deck edge for security. At the bow there is a pulpit for storage of the primary anchor as well as a locker for storage of anchor rode and an extra anchor.
