Description

A great boat for the avid fisherman or cruising adventurer.

A large aft cockpit with generous storage makes for excellent safe family boating, fishing, and enjoyment. The pilot house opens with a set of large solid doors allowing the space to be completely enclosed and benefit from the reverse cycle heat of the main cabin on those cold winter days.

The helm has excellent visibility and electronics at your fingertips. Along with the helm station the pilothouse features a refrigerator sink, storage and large port side seating area. The side glass slides open and a vent window forward allows plenty of air flow when needed.

Below decks the Albin 31 has an enclosed head with separate shower stall to starboard. Forward is a large dinette which converts to a double berth. The galley is to Port with another refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, built-in coffee maker, 2 hot plates, a large sink and plenty of storage.

Aft of the galley under the pilothouse is a large double berth, the companionway steps can be raised allowing easy access to the berth.

This versatile vessel has twin 300hp Peninsular diesel engines giving a top speed of 23 knots and an 18 knot cruise at 1 mile per gallon. A Northern lights generator provides at rest power for the vessel systems.

Dry stored in Anacortes and ready for her next adventure! Recent work completed 2023.
