Hi everyone, I am now the proud owner of Time Out, a 2005 28 TE with Yanmar 6lpa, 1200 hr but still sounding very sweet. We are berthed in Dartmouth UK and already getting lots of interest and good comments from both sail and motor owners. Some small works to do as with any older boat but really looking forward to some fishing and cruising

Welcome aboard. 28 TE is perfect for your local waters and ready to fish. Have fond memories of breaking my arm playing rugby against BRNC about a hundred years ago; a good run ashore followed after application of a cast.
Enjoy your Albin. There are other UK-based Albineers.

There are indeed and i know Time Out like the back of my hand. She even made it on the February Page of the 2015 Albin Owners calendar despite having the wrong name!


Any questions about the boat, just shout and I can fill in the gaps

come to think of it - I did your wiper conversion and made your handrails around the cockpit!

I do know it very well. I know both of the first two owners. Time Out was the reason I imported my Albin. The second owner is my best mate - he must be because he was under my engine tonight fitting my drip less shaft seal! It’s good to know she’s back on AOG albeit she was briefly on here before. Anything you need to know about the boat - I’m sure I can fill in the gaps.
