A brand-new D1 costs close to €12,000—here you’re paying barely a third of that, so in effect you’re buying the motor at a huge discount and the boat comes as a gift.
The Dixie 27 is a practical, fin-keel cruiser kept at Karlstad Segelsällskap. Fresh Lewmar winches in the cockpit make sail handling crisp and direct, and the furling jib simplifies life when the breeze changes.
Interior cushions are clean and supportive, and the forward hatch floods the single cabin with natural light—perfect for a restful night after coastal exploring. Hull and deck are well-kept, showing careful ownership, and a road trailer is included for hassle-free transport and winter storage.
This balanced rig and manageable size suit solo sailors or small crews touring local waters. More photos and details on request.
