Refrigerator
A refrigerator with a capacity of 42 litres can be installed in the stowage compartment
on the port side fig. 29. The electrical power needed is maximum 25 watts (4.5 amps.)
but used normally the mean current is about 2 amps. This means that a fully charged
battery has a capacity of running
that the battery has to be charged. If a refrigerator is installed it is advisable to add
still another battery as a spare or coupled in parallel with the lighting battery. The
refrigerator is switched on with a switch placed just aft of the refrigerator. A warning
lamp near the switch shines when the current is on.In earlier installations the switch
was at the helmsmans seat without a warning lamp.

Cockpit cover
The cover is made from a type of synthetic canvas. It is colourfast and treated t o
make waterproof while allowing air to pass through. This has the advantage that
it
the formation of condensation under the cover is kept to a minimum. Wet covers
should be dried in a stretched position. When new they shrink a little and they can
form a poor fit if they are not dried in their right form.Do not store the cover while
it is damp as mildew can form and damage the material. The cover canvas should
be brushed ocassionally. Salt, dirt, etc., can be brushed off and washed away with
clean water. Detergents and solutions wash away the waterproofing. If it is necessary
to wash away oil stains, etc., a soap detergent must be used and not strong solvents.
After washing the canvas must be impregnated with new waterproofing. Water-
proofing for tent canvas can be bought in paint shops and is available in spray
containers. Leaks i n covers can be made water tight with a rubber solution or par-
affin.
Equipment
The Albin 25 has fairly complete equipment but certain extra equipment is necessary
for instance: anchor and anchor line, fenders, stove, compass, etc. In these cases
personal preference for different types make it difficult to include this equipment as
standard. Different use of the boat and personal taste can influence what is needed
for the boat. A price list from Albin Marin A 6 on extra equipment can give some
ideas regarding the optional equipment that is available for the Albin 25. The following
list may also help.
