Maxi 84 with a Volvo Penta engine for only 4998 euros!

Friends, today we have a Maxi 84 with a Volvo Penta engine for only 4998 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 8.54 meters
Beam: 2.95 meters
Draft: 1.50 meters
Sleeps: 5
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet (head): available

A very beautiful and well-maintained Maxi 84 with a lot of upgrades and equipment.

The interior has been redone, and now it is in very good condition. New cushions were sewn.

The galley is equipped on the port side with a new 3-burner stove, an oven with a grill on a gimbal and a sink. A spacious refrigerator is installed on the starboard side. There is a tank with fresh water for 90 liters.

The boat is roomy enough for 28 feet. 8 seats, width of almost 3 meters, the length of the bunks in the forward cabin is 210 cm.

The boat is equipped with a mainsail with a cover and a staysail on a furling. The sails are in good working condition.

The boat has an original Volvo Penta MD7 diesel engine with a power of 13 hp. The ad does not say about its condition, but I think it was carried well the same way as the whole boat.

The boat is well-equipped: a sprayhood with awning, nets on the rails, solar panel, bathing platform, cockpit cushions, etc.

Also, there is a dinghy and the outboard motor in the photos. They are not mentioned in the ad, but perhaps the owner simply forgot to specify them.

This sailboat, in my opinion, is an excellent example of how even a small and inexpensive boat can be made comfortable and autonomous. A great option for the first boat for little money.

Nessy 94 with a tandem keel, a kevlar hull and fresh eggs for 14,300 euro!

Friends, today we have a Nessy 94 with a tandem keel, a kevlar hull and fresh eggs for 14,300 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.4 meters
Beam: 3.28 meters
Draft: 1.35 meters
Sleeps: 8
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

An unusual and interesting boat. The fin keel was replaced with a tandem one, which reduced the draft to 135 cm instead of 180 cm, as on the rest of the Nessy 94. I am sure this decision will be sharply criticized, but anyway, the boat is pretty interesting.

The hull with the addition of kevlar. It’s a very durable kind of plastic, which makes the hull extremely tough and shockproof. There is an opinion that it’s even bulletproof, but I wouldn’t check it 🙂

The interior and upholstery are in excellent condition. The cushions look like new. The boat has hot water and a fresh water tank.

A complete set of sails: an almost new mainsail, a laminate genoa with UV protection and a jib. The sails are in excellent shape.

The Nanni 14 hp engine is in good condition: starts easily, runs quietly, develops a cruising speed of up to 6 knots and consumes about 2 liters per hour.

One of the reasons I couldn’t get past this boat is the chicken coop on board. Why not? Having a fresh eggs omelette for breakfast, being far out at sea, is a good option. And for a special day, you can cook noodle soup 🙂

In addition to all the exotics, there is a lot of useful equipment on board: a Standard Horizon chartplotter with a 7-inch screen and a map of the Northern region, a Raymarine autopilot, an echo sounder, a wind strength and direction meter, two anchors, etc.

An almost new Zodiac Cadet 230 dinghy is given with the boat.

I like this boat because she’s really the owner’s boat and she was well cared for. This can be seen from the photos and videos that can be viewed on the owner’s Instagram account (I can share the link, DM for that).

Very clean and well-maintained Dufour. The boat has been totally upgraded in recent years. All maintenance work was carried out by professionals.

The galley is equipped with a 2-burner stove, oven, sink and refrigerator. There is hot and cold water. A fresh water tank for 180 liters and a hot water tank for 30 liters are installed. The toilet with hot shower is located in a separate room. A heater is installed in the salon and bathroom.

Maxi 95 with a new 2012 Vetus engine for just 7,250 euros!

Friends, today we have a Maxi 95 with a new 2012 Vetus engine for just 7,250 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.50 meters
Beam: 3.20 meters
Draft: 1.55 meters
Sleeps: 6
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet (head): available

Looks like one of the best offers in recent times. The market price for these boats in Scandinavia is usually 2-3 times higher.

The Maxi 95 is perhaps one of the most spacious 31-foot boats. Large cockpit that can comfortably accommodate up to eight people. Double aft-cabin with an entrance through the cockpit. Separate spacious toilet.

Full set of sails: mainsail with a cover and a genoa on a furling with a cover. The photo shows a spinnaker boom, perhaps there is also a spinnaker.

A new Vetus 2012 diesel engine is installed on the boat. The total cost of the engine with the installation is almost 15k euros! By the way, another “kicker” of the Maxi 95 is the engine located under the table in the salon. This way you have access to the engine from all sides in case of repair or maintenance. Also, this arrangement of the engine shifts the center of gravity and the boat drags less water with its stern.

There is also a lot of useful equipment on the boat: chartplotter, autopilot, Wallas heater in the salon and aft-cabin, echo sounder, VHF, anchor with anchor winch at the bow, second anchor at the stern, new sprayhood and bimini and much more.

Of course, there are some disadvantages on a boat with such a big discount. The owner speaks honestly about them in the ad.

Firstly, I would make cosmetic repairs in the salon and update the wooden elements. You also need to paint the underwater part. There is a small leak in one of the portholes, you need to put it back on the sealant. In general, there is nothing complicated, you just need to invest a little time and love 🙂

The owner honestly says that the boat has a small problem: two portholes leak a little. It is necessary to put it on a new sealant. Nothing complicated, but you will need to dig deeper.
