Friends, today we have a steel Ansö 42 with a Yanmar engine for 59 500 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 12.80 meters
Beam: 3.99 meters
Draft: 1.80 meters
Sleeps: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Shower: ?
Kitchen (galley): yes

You asked me to show you what offers there are with steel boats now. Here, in my opinion, is an interesting boat.

Having a steel boat, you can think about navigation in high latitudes. You are not as afraid of ice fragments as if you were on a fiberglass boat.

The steel boat may not be lifted out of the water for winter storage. But you need to understand that a steel boat also requires special care, along with wooden boats. It needs to be painted often and make sure that there is no rust.

This yacht has recently been painted and the hull has been additionally insulated. A cozy refit is made inside.

The galley is equipped with a stove with an oven, two sinks, two refrigerators and a coffee maker. There is also a grill in the cockpit.

There is a TV in the cabin. There is a heater.

Solar panels with 380 watts are installed.

A separate spacious electric toilet with a septic tank.

A complete set of sails: an in-mast mainsail and a staysail on a furler.

The boat has a fairly powerful Yanmar 55 hp engine. There is a bow thruster with a separate battery.

The boat is well-equipped with various equipment: there is a chartplotter, an echo sounder, a wind force and direction meter, radar, VHF, a life raft and more.

An inflatable boat with an outboard is also visible in the photo. It’s good if it is also included in the price.

A nice and very well-maintained Swedish-made boat.

The interior and cushions look like new. There is a galley along the port side with everything you need, including a stove with an oven on a gimbal.

A dedicated toilet with a septic tank. There is a diesel heater on the boat.

The sails look good. There is a mainsail with a cover, a staysail on a furler and some additional sails. There is a self-tacking staysail on the boat, it’s very convenient – you don’t need to pull the sheet when changing tack, and the sail itself moves from side to side. All ropes are brought into the cockpit, so you can control the sails even alone.

A fresh 2006 Lombardini engine has been installed. This is a good and reliable engine and it’s easy enough to find spare parts for maintenance.

There is an anchor box on the bow, but no winch. There is also an anchor at the stern with a chain and an anchor line.

A spray hood and a cockpit tent are sewn.

There is little information about the equipment in the ad. The owner says there is a lot of various stuff on the boat and he is ready to tell you personally. The photo shows the Garmin chartplotter and the presence of an echo sounder. There is also a solar panel.
