The helmsman’s seat’s leather was quite badly worn and stained so we decided to replace it. We bought 1,5m of blue synthetic leather and due to a small measurement error made it a bit of a tight fit but the end result was good.
This blog is about the adventures and maintenance of a motorboat of the model Albin 25. The boat in question is built in 1970 with the serial number 465 and came to us in 2018 and was renamed to Skumpan. The engine is a dieseldriven Perkins Perama M20 with 18 horsepowers. The cruising speed is about 6 knots, the max speed is not much more than that, about 6,5 knots.
We have basically no experience in boating nor maintenance of a boat but hopefully we’ll learn while doing.
