Dufour Gib’Sea 33 with an 18hp Volvo Penta 2020 engine for 44700 €

Friends, meet a Dufour Gib’Sea 33 with an 18hp Volvo Penta 2020 engine for 44700 €

Location: Norway

Length: 9.98 meters
Width: 3.45 meters
Draft: 1.50 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

This 2000 Gib’Sea 33 is a well-groomed and very spacious sailboat. Due to the width of almost 3.5 meters it can be compared with 2-cabin versions of 36-37 feet boats.

The boat is very autonomous and has a lot of expensive upgrades. In 2021, the standing rigging was replaced, a new toilet with a waste disposal and a new septic tank were installed. 2 large freshwater tanks with a total volume of 270 liters, a hot water tank, an Eber D4 diesel heater with deflectors in both cabins, toilet and in the cockpit.

The spray hood and tent in the cockpit are in perfect condition and keep warm even in cold weather.

A set of sails: a 2021 staysail on a Furlex 2021, a mainsail with a lazy bag, a gennaker in a cover.

The cabin with width of 3.45 meters allows you to feel comfortable even in a large company. The galley has a 2-burner stove, a refrigerator, a sink with hot and cold water. All cushions are in very good condition.

A Volvo Penta 2020 diesel engine with a capacity of 18 HP is installed. The engine starts with a half-turn and works like clockwork. The owner says there’s an oil leak, it’s insignificant, there’s no need to top it up until replacement. Guess it’s not difficult to fix it.

There is a Raymarine autopilot with a chartplotter, an echo sounder, a VHF radio station, a TV, a stern anchor with remote control, a bow anchor with a manual winch, mooring lines, fenders and much more.

A dinghy with a 2.5 hp Honda is given with the boat.

I guess that this is a very good offer. Try to bargain about the engine to drop the price to 40,000 euro.

Neptun 26 with a 14hp Nanni 2.50HE inboard diesel engine for only 8500 euro!

Friends! Today we have a Neptun 26 with a 14hp Nanni 2.50HE inboard diesel engine for only 8500 euro!

Location: Germany

Length: 7.8 meters
Width: 2.5 meters
Draft: 1.4 meters
Number of berths: 5
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available
Headroom: 1.8 meters

This sailboat is attractive due to the fresh engine and a lot of renovations.
Engine Nanni 2.50HE 14 hp 2007 with running time of 270 hours/ It’s almost new, so it should be in perfect condition.

Sails: a genoa, a spinnaker, a genaker and a storm staysail. Nothing is said about the mainsail, but I think it is there and the owner just forgot to specify.

A standard set of equipment is included: compass, GPS, NASA marine lag and echo sounder, wind indicator, VHF radio, navigation lights, shore power connection, charger and audio system, etc. As a minimum, there should still be service and starting batteries (a complete list of equipment should be requested from the seller).

Water tank – 90 liters, fuel tank – 20 liters.

There’s also a new sea toilet.

Kitchen: a two-burners gas stove, sink with tap and refrigerator. Everything is new!

There should be also mooring equipment, there may be a spray hood, a lazy bag and much more.

The interior (wood and plastic), floor, sofa upholstery, bilge pump, water supply system, outboard water filter were updated.

The price of the yacht also includes a port trailer. If it is not needed, then by selling or refusing from it, you can reduce the price by about 500 euros.

Perhaps the boat was restored, so it is necessary to examine the hull and keel very carefully. Ask what works were completed and when. Inspect the mast, rigging and sails (why is the mainsail not specified?), ask for documents for all renovations.

Judging by the description, the boat fully justifies its cost, but everything needs to be surveyed and checked!

Alo 28 with a fresh 13 hp Vetus engine for 5400 euro!

Friends, today we have an Alo 28 with a fresh 13 hp Vetus engine for 5400 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 8.76 meters
Width: 2.55 meters
Draft: 1.52 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

This boat had only two owners. It looks clean and tidy.

The boat is equipped with a fresh Vetus engine (2010) with an operating time of only 300 motor hours. Recently, a major engine maintenance was performed, oil and filters were replaced.

A full set of sails: a 2010 staysail on a furler and a brand new mainsail, although the mainsail is from the smaller boat, but it works very well.

New cushions have been sewn for all the seats and sleeping places.

The galley is equipped with a spirit stove, a refrigerator and a sink with a pressurized water supply.

A solar panel is installed on the boat. The owner says that he didn’t charge from the shore in a two-week passage.

There is teak on the floor and seats in the cockpit, there is also a teak table.

The ad says that the engine sometimes loses revs, and after 5 seconds it picks it up again. I think it will be easy to fix it on a fresh 2010 engine. Perhaps there is a problem in the fuel system, for example, some kind of pump is leaking or something like that.

There is an autopilot on the boat, but the owner wants to give it away for an additional fee. I think that with a reasonable bargain about the engine, it will be possible to pick it up with the boat.
