The engine has been completely renewed with new old parts at kristinehamn by former Albin factory..Now works perfectly for the next 50 years! We use the boat daily since 1978 in summer for commuting, fishing, small trips.
Boat was made in Söderköping area in the 50's but I have no information regarding boatyard / builder unfortunately (if anyone has clues..?). The smooth wake seen at the end is showing how a neatly designed hull will just displace water without creating cavitation or disturbance, and pretty hypnotic to watch! (Propeller is brass 3 blades)
There is many boats like this ( called Snipa in swedish) for sale in the swedish list sites, for a range of 3-6 K € with engines, because no one seems to want to care for them anymore.
Since this video was taken in 2013, we have undergone much work: cleaning of the tar inside the boat ( in favor of linseed oil), cleaning the bottom that showed much weakness in the keel that lead us to glass the underside. The budget for keel replacement beeing unsustainable, same goes with the few broken ribs near the motor.
Winter 2017-18: the boat has seen more change: replacing of the 041 control panel for a 021 control panel, refurb of the propeller shaft brass rings ( there was too much play and vibrations), rework on the magneto that is sensible to heat changes.
Winter 2018-19: removing all the tar/dirt inside replaced by linseed oil
Winter 2019-20: will see the work on the outside varnish that will be totally redone, + rebuilding the bow seat ( that hold the gas tank).

When I began working as a marine mechanic in 2000, I had the pleasure of working with these engines a few times a year. Now I never see them. I really miss them a lot. I'm going to buy myself an oil filler cap and a reverse gear cover plate as a memory of those happy days.

+Kevin Romas (“Number 1 Detroit Red Neck”) thnx...the last part of vid was more at 7-8 knots...10 - 10.5 is really the max you can achieve. The hull pushes water after 8-9 knots but does not go really faster, and the frame starts to vibrate...

Actually it was 10-11 kilometers per hour (KPH/KMH), which is 5-5,5 knots. Anyway not bad! I think the boat is probably 5-6 meters long, which makes it quite hard to get it up to more than 6 knots. Nice video and good work on the overhaul!

the quiet and smoothness of a gas engine is highlighted here... the advantages are high power to weight ratio, simple fuel system, low compression . lower fuel use and freedom from explosive fuel.. ( with a diesel) are traded for these other attributes, we see how pleasant that can be, here - where a light weight hull is married to a "light weight" gas engine.. which is still plenty heavy enough to satisfy those of us who love longevity !
@loftalofta8423
@loftalofta8423 4 жыл бұрын
thnx that is an interesting angle...Indeed the engine is so light and simple compare to it's diesel variant..! I will try to pass her to the next generation and hopefully they will grab on that longevity thing..Fiberglass / aluminium boats we have are just for utility and could be replaced / gone without any feelings..

What is the crank behind the engine? It it for a variable pitch prop?
@loftalofta8423
@loftalofta8423 7 жыл бұрын
Noell Wilson nope it is a fixed prop. it's just the manual crank start..it was a rare option some people had. Usually you start it manually from front of engine with removable handle that is connected directly on the flywheel. It is not so easy to manual start because the flywheel is very heavy anyway...am glad it has electric start!

The wood engine box is pine wood that is varnished ( the same kind that the hull is made of)..It has so many layers of varnish that it is almost waterproof...But the boat sleeps under a roof , and I have a vinyl cover for rainy days so not really an issue. The inside of the wood box is saturated with linolja ( lineseed oil) and some engine oil that got there over the years. This summer i have a new control panel, new start engine, new sparks so it should be more reliable!

Is this engine in first Albin Vegas?
@loftalofta8423
@loftalofta8423 4 жыл бұрын
Hello, I believe the first engine in the Albin Vega was a 5hp albin engine ( likely the mono cylinder) then switched to this 021/022 engine for more torque and power, before switching to Volvo Penta when or before Volvo Penta took over Albin motor and killed it...From what I heard Volvo could not get people to switch to their engines while people used Albin, and the best way to win over competition is to purchase it and kill it...

+kingmaster1231 Top cruise speed around 9 kn, can reach 11 at full speed but the engine is a bit too strong for the hull/ frame, and vibrations get very high. Over 9 knots the hull pushes too much water and the speed gain vs noise/vibration makes it unbearable.

@loftalofta8423
@loftalofta8423 8 жыл бұрын
+kingmaster1231 no planning at all its a full displacement hull..yes the hull is overpowered, regular cruise speed is more like 7 kn..It would work well with an albin 1 cylinder too I guess..what is nice is the stern seats very low on water like 15cm above water, typical of the swedish traditional hulls. You can barely see where you go the front beeing so high above water!
