I have my eyes set on an Albin Tornament Express 28, but they are rather
pricey. I want a seaworthy downeaster-type fishing boat that I can take
it out for a week or two-weeks in the open sea in the northeast. I'm new
to modern powerboats and am wondering if there are other alternatives to
the Albin, maybe a trawler that would fit my needs better. TIA.


What engine does it have?

We looked at an Albin double cabin many years ago. The engine was built
by Renault.
I just didn't know enough about them, so we passed.

The new ones have a single 300hp Yanmar diesel w/ a bow thruster. I
believe they used to have Volvo engine in the past.


That's better. I misread your post - I was thinking more of a slow trawler.
I think the one we looked at was an early '80s or even late '70s - it was a
long time ago.
