Albina was first registered in 1971 at Cowes on the Isle of Wight. When we bought her in 1997, she was based on the River Thames.
During the time that we have owned her, she has taken us up the Thames to Lechlade and down to the sea. We have also cruised the River Medway up to Tonbridge, the limit of navigation.
We especially enjoy our regular cruises into London and have visited almost all of the London docks.
