Today we have a 120 year old wooden sailboat with a new 50 h.p. Yanmar inboard engine for only 5 500 euro!
Location: Norway
Hull length: 10.97 meters
Width: 4.00 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Galley (kitchen): available
Toilet: available
A very unusual offer and an interesting project. If you transform the appearance of the yacht then it will be a wonderful classic sailboat.
The yacht is equipped with a 50 h.p. Yanmar engine but it’s indicated that the engine must be powered.
Nothing is said about the sails and it’s also difficult to define their condition, so it’s better to ask the seller. Most likely the sails are in order as it can be seen that the yacht was equipped before, but not all the work was completed.
Of the disadvantages, of course, wood care. You should understand that on such a yacht, unlike a plastic one, you have to carry out a lot of work every year. Wood in poor condition is replaced with a new one and this process is done every year (so the yacht is 120 years old, and it’s still afloat).
The seller says that they have done a lot of work on the yacht’s hull over the past year and a half, but they have done nothing for the exterior. The previous owner has lived on the yacht for many years, so the interior is prepared for a comfortable life.
An excellent option for those who love unusual yachts, who know how to work with wood, and are interested in getting their hands on it. The cost of such a yacht in excellent condition will be 10-20 times higher!
