Aphrodite 33 (Najad) with a Volvo Penta engine for 31 900 euros!

Friends, today we have an Aphrodite 33 (Najad) with a Volvo Penta engine for 31 900 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 10.35 m
Beam: 3.30 m
Draft: 1.58 m
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

Aphrodite 33 was built at the same shipyard and standards as the more famous Najad. In fact, it’s the same manufacturer. It was a subsidiary first, later it merged into Najad.

Build quality is equally high – these are real Swedish cruising yachts, made by hand and with great attention to detail.

The boat is well-maintained, with many upgrades, and ready for the season. In spring 2025, the hull was polished and received fresh antifouling.

An Eberspacher diesel heater, an electric toilet, a refrigerator, a stove with an oven, and a water heater provide comfortable everyday living.

There is a TV, an audio system with Bluetooth, LED lighting, soft mattresses with new upholstery.

Separate toilet with shower and a shower in the cockpit.

Volvo Penta 2003 engine (approx 4000 hours) with a new generator and a three-bladed folding propeller.

Sails: a mainsail with a lazy bag and genoa on a furling.

There is a new tent and a sprayhood in the cockpit, and an anchor winch and a davit at the stern.

The teak is original, the owner says it’s still thick enough (12 mm). Such thickness is good, you can update the wood by sanding, but I don’t like that it is screwed to the deck. Nobody does that way anymore.

Equipment: a Furuno radar, Raymarine autopilot with remote control, TackTick instruments, Garmin GPS, VHF and compass. A solar panel, an inverter, AGM batteries and a Mastervolt charging system ensure autonomy.

The incredible beauty of Hallberg-Rassy 312 Scandinavia. The interior is almost in the same condition as when the boat left the shipyard.

Teak deck and cockpit. The steering wheel is covered with moose leather.

Draft: 1.95 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes

Jeanneau Sun Liberty 34 is a cruising sailing yacht of the famous French shipyard. The hull is built with kevlar reinforcement, which makes it lightweight and durable.

The version with two separate cabins, each with its own bathroom and shower, which is rare for boats of this size.

There is a lot of natural light in the cabins, a fully equipped galley and a nav table, as well as a good headroom throughout the boat (182-200 cm) make staying inside really comfortable.

A complete set of sails: a mainsail with a furling in the mast, a genoa on a furling, and a gennaker.

Reliable Yanmar 3YM30 engine with 27 hp and almost 100 liters of fuel tank. The engine is fully serviced.

Webasto is installed with deflectors in all cabins, including toilets, which is especially important for cold nights.
Electrics: a solar panel, a shore power, a 220/12V converter and two batteries (separate for start-up and consumption).

Anchor winch with remote control. It’s very convenient, and allows you to drop or lift the anchor even alone. Although I recommend having an assistant anyway, if possible.

Navigation equipment includes a set of Tacktick (current Raymarine): echo sounder, log, wind, VHF radio station.

An interesting boat with lots of updates from our subscriber. The boat is located in a good location — Mediterranean, Greece.

The interior is in good condition. The interior paneling has been updated in the galley and in the saloon. All the tanks were cleaned this year.

Comfortina 38CR with a new engine for 40 400 euros!

Friends, today we have a Comfortina 38CR with a new engine for 40 400 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 11.65 meters
Beam: 3.51 meters
Draft: 1.95 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

A gorgeous and reliable Swedish-made cruiser. The owner was preparing the boat for a trip around the world, but is selling her because he have became a co-owner of a larger boat.

The standing rigging was replaced with a new one in 2021. The halyards have been replaced with Dyneema. All the lines are out in the cockpit.

There is a photo of the keel bolts. It looks like they’ve been replaced too.

At the same time, a new Volvo Penta D1-30 engine was installed. The engine was built in 2008 and since then has worked only 1,100 engine hours. A new sale drive, filters, hoses, and more were installed with the engine.

The interior is in excellent condition. Two large cabins and a separate toilet. Cockpit shower. Water is heated by the engine or shore power supply.

New starter and house batteries (lithium). There is a separate battery for the anchor winch. I recommend doing exactly that setup. If you drain all the batteries while anchored, then you can always lift the anchor if something goes wrong.

All the upgrades in recent years cost about 25,000 euros.

The sails are not new, but they are in working shape: 2 genoas, mainsail, staysail, spinnaker, and a full set of sails for bad weather – a storm staysail and a trysail. Having storm sails is important if you are going to circumnavigate.

The complete Raymarine + B&G navigation package. Autopilot, chartplotter, AIS, VHF, Echo sounder and more.
