I am a new member so that I can research Albin boats. Specifically the Tournament Express models. My family and I are looking for something we can cruise extended weekends and an occasional week long adventure. We currently have a fabulous Duckworth Pacific Navigator, but is a fishing only boat for our PNW waters. The Admiral has advised a bed, toilet, and cooking equipment will be required on the next vessel.

Welcome: Your choice is an excellent. I am former owner of the 35te Sportfisher Flybridge 2006. Made a stupid decision and sold it. What I can say is all the TE's are very fine performance boats. I like 31te for fishing and ample room. The 28te is a nice small family cruise and fish boat. I know lots of folks who love the model for both purposes and it is less expensive. Our PNW member has his own the market although I think it is going through survey now.
It is well equipped with new touch screen electronics and the fine Cummins power plant. Check the sale section for status. Howard

Thanks for the welcome. So far my search has been around engines. And the historical information about different engine packages and manufacturers has been invaluable. I like the 31 but the 28 has a lot more availability and is a bit friendlier for trailering. Much to ponder....
