Thanks for the replies.....bought some 291 and will be taking care of the issue next week

Good Morning....I need to re-caulk the seam on the outside of my 36' Albin ET where the flybridge meets the house under the stainless trim. May I get a suggestion on the best sealant to use? Thanks! Guy

We used Steve Berg for the general survey....very thorough. Berg Marine Surveys For the engines we used Northwest Diesel Power. https://www.nwdieselpower.com/ We did end up buying the boat. Good Luck!

This certainly is “tip of the iceberg” stuff…..going to take awhile to go through everything….funny thing is the first owner of this boat was Blue Sea Systems….it has some very nice equipment but subsequent owners seem to have added a lot of wiring and not removed any of the old stuff.

Similar….I’m going to pull it all apart tomorrow and I’ll find out….I do have some gremlins I have to figure out

Thank you….I will certainly count how many are on there and use boeshield….PO had some sort of red goop on a lot of the connections on the boat that had some sort of inhibitor but it’s all hard and nasty now.

Hi there everyone….Recently repaired by crane hoist and in the process I noticed a negative bus that has one bolt with multiple negative leads stacked on it. Is this normal practice or should it be an actual bus bar? There is some corrosion on it that I need to take care of but not sure if I...

That is an excellent idea Jim. I am going to try the fuse angle but if that does not work I will definitely pull everything apart and take the motor to a starter/alternator shop. (which I suspect I'll end up doing) The guy I talked to at A&H told me they are using Warn now.

A little update....not fixed yet. The person I spoke with at A&H suggested finding the fuse and checking that out. Traced the wires and they go directly to the house bank through a fuse holder that has a 30 amp maxi fuse. Tried pulling the fuse out and it was STUCK! Had to use pliers and the...

Actually just did.....they are a Canadian company and open today....he gave me some good tips.

Hello folks.....having an issue with my dinghy crane. It's an Atkins & Hoyle 650 lb capacity I believe, (haven't found a model number anywhere). Anyways....I plug the remote in and hit the switch and all it does is click the solenoids. I replace the solenoids and it still does the same thing. I...

Thanks for the input…..sounds like it may be time to replace along with replacing the inverter/charger that doesn’t seem to be inverting.

We think PO replaced them about 2 years ago....we've had the boat for about 6 months.

Hello all....We've had our 36' Albin at a boatyard for the past month or so....bottom paint, prop shafts etc. Problem is apparently the house bank of batteries (8 ea 6v LA) were completely drained. They have them on a charger now, but is there a way I can test them for future use? Or just pay...

That makes sense.....may be an issue with the pass through......I will be getting a marine electrician to go through the system.

this is the inverter/charger we have TruePower Combi 2500W QS - 110V AC/12V DC

I will go down later today and take a couple of pictures of what we have.

Good Morning.....I have a couple of questions...thought someone with more experience may be able to help out. Newer to us Albin 36' express trawler. We have a Pro-Mariner 2500w inverter/charger and a 7.6kw Westerbeke genset. Spent the night at anchor the other night for the first time and we...

We have the Wolverine pan heaters on our recently purchased boat with twin 6BTA Cummins. Also in the Seattle area....when the cold started, to start the engines took about 30 sec of cranking. Turned on the pan heaters and next day engines started immediately. We leave them on 24/7 and they are...

Thanks for all the replies. Ended up just sharing portions of the survey that we needed price adjustments on. Adjusted price has been accepted and we're in the title phase so things are moving along nicely albeit slowly.

Hello Group....Just had an out of the water survey done and they came up with a few issues....one of which, if not handled by the seller, would most likely preclude us from buying the boat. I've sent the seller (broker) a couple of pictures of the issue and have told him that this would be the...

Good Day All! Name is Guy and we are in the process of purchasing an Albin 36' Express Trawler. If all surveys go well we're hoping to close by the end of the month. Thought I'd get a head start and start lurking for awhile. We are based in the Pacific Northwest and are looking forward to some...
