Albatross Badges
« on: May 25, 2019, 06:31:22 PM »
Hi Everyone,

I have just acquired Albatross number 600 a MK3 two seater with the 100e engine.

My boat is missing the side mounted Albatross badges and the Bullfrog navigation light. Can anyone help please ?.

Regards,

Peter.

The light is as a rare as can be. Have you tried John at:

fildesjohn@gmail.com

because he did (I think) make a few. Whilst they are not original, they were good. He also made some badges as he teamed up with the sons of Archie Peice, the designer and builder of these great boats.

Hi Brian,

I have contacted Albatross Marine. I am waiting for an answer on whether they could supply me with a casting for the light.

They don't have any badges at the moment.

I submitted a post on the site years ago when I had two boats for sale. I always regret selling them so I bought number 600 as a project.

I will try to email John directly, thanks for the reply.

Regards,

Peter.
