Albin Ballad with a stationary Volvo Penta 2002 engine for only 2950 euro!

Friends! Today I will show you what the autumn sale of boats is. This is Albin Ballad with a stationary Volvo Penta 2002 engine for only 2950 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.14 meters
Width: 2.96 meters
Draft: 1.55 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Kitchen (galley):
Toilet: available
Ceiling height: 1.9 meters

The boat has been on land for the last 2 years. No one has used it and therefore they are selling it. Most likely there’s some kind of dirt that has accumulated during this time and it will need to be thoroughly washed.

Volvo Penta 2002 engine, installed sometime in the 90s, new shaft in 2012, new exhaust system in 2015.

Fresh genoa (2016) with a twist. There’s an old staysail, a spinnaker, mainsail, 4 Lewmar winches. All the ropes go to the cockpit, everything is done very conveniently.

There is a GPS navigator, a VHF radio station, an autopilot, an electric compass, an ordinary compass, 220 volt sockets, lithium batteries, an ordinary starting, a charger.

Wallas heater, toilet was replaced in 2013, boiler (service required), a Bruce anchor, teak cockpit, mooring equipment, etc.

All this for only 2950 euro! This is a very good proposal if there are no significant problems there. The usual price for such a boat will be at least 2 times more expensive, i.e. about 6000 euro.

Of course, you have to look at life and evaluate the real state, but the offer is really very interesting.

Leisure 22 with bilge keels and a Mercury 10 h.p. outboard engine for only 900 euro!

Friends! Today we have Leisure 22 with bilge keels and a Mercury 10 h.p. outboard engine for only 900 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 6.71 meters
Width: 2.39 meters
Draft: 0.81 meters
Berths: 5
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available
Ceiling height: 1.73 meters

It’s a big little boat. There’s a lot of space inside for a boat of this size. It feels like almost 30 feet.

The length is less than 7 meters. This is the most inexpensive category regarding the mooring fees, it has bilge keels and the draft of only 0.8 meters. You can also put a boat on them without any stands, you can stand in tidal zones without any problems.

Round the world trips were made on such boats, they are sturdy enough. For example, the rudder blade is protected by a powerful skeg.

Mercury engine 10 h.p. is in good condition. That’s more than enough for this boat.

The condition is good enough. Of course you should put your hands to it, but this is a boat with an engine, with an excellent interior space and only for 900 euro!

I was not mistaken, nine hundred euro!

There’s a full set of sails. The boat, in my opinion, is not very cosy right now but this is easy to fix by adding your own decor elements + altering the cushions. I would also polish the wood. It’s not difficult and not for long, you just need a sander and a couple of free evenings.

Friends! Today we have a Bavaria 30 Cruiser (2006) with an inboard Volvo Penta D1-20 motor for only 38000 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.47 meters
Width: 3.28 meters
Draft: 1.4 meters
Berths: 6
Ceiling height: 1.85 meters
Kitchen (galley): available

A fairly fresh Bavaria with a lot of updates. The price of 38,000 euro for such a boat is quite small.

Norwegians don’t sail a lot so most likely there are no more than 1000 hours on the engine. The boat itself has never been used either in racing or in charter.

This year they sewed a new genoa and made a lazy jack. There’s an anchor winch with 50 meters of chain, navigator, autopilot, Wallas heater, hot water from both 220V and engine cooling system, septic tank, rescue equipment, mooring equipment, etc.

The boat looks very fresh. Plastic and wood are in perfect condition.

It’s perfect for easy trips around Europe, in the Mediterranean, etc.

Comfortable, modern and inexpensive boat.

In 7 years it will be easy to sell it for the same money and it will still be a good offer.

Storfidra 25 with an updated 21 h.p. Yanmar motor (400 hours, 2016) for only 8400 euro!

Friends! Today we have a Storfidra 25 with an updated 21 h.p. Yanmar motor (400 hours, 2016) for only 8400 euro!

Location: Sweden

Length: 7.7 meters
Width: 2.48 meters
Draft: 1.3 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Height in the cabin: 1.86 meters
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available (separate)

Guys, this is amazing! The boat was prepared for a voyage around the world, there’s a huge amount of new and expensive equipment.

The engine is new, 2016 and 400 hours. This is less than 5% of its resource, it means that you get 95% of the resource.

A full set of sails. There’s a baby stay with a furler (this is also very cool). There’s a wind autopilot (a new one costs several thousand euro), there’s an electric autopilot, a navigator, a lazy jack, batteries, a VHF radio station, a new water tank, a new diesel tank, etc.

Most of the equipment was bought in 2020, it is almost brand new!

Storfidra is a very strong and reliable boat, round the world trips were made on it. It crossed the oceans and it is considered a real offshore mini cruiser.

The ceiling height is 1.86 meters. It is very comfortable for a boat of this size. The boat falls into the category of up to 8 meters, which means that mooring fees will be quite inexpensive.

The toilet is made as a separate room, which is also a plus for comfort.

Albin Vega with a 5hp Mercury Sailpower outboard engine (2017) for only 1000 euros!

Friends! Today we will have an Albin Vega with a 5hp Mercury Sailpower outboard engine (2017) for only 1000 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.25 meters
Width: 2.46 meters
Draft: 1.2 meters
Berths: 4
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

Now is the time for inexpensive boats and the sellers who do not want to pay for winter mooring.

As I already said, Albin Vega is a legendary sailboat, I had 2 of them. Many interesting voyages were made on them, including round the world.

What do we have here?

Albin Q21 inboard motor, but it’s out of order. I think there is a chance that it can be fixed, but you have to figure it out.

The previous owner didn’t want to deal with this and installed a new outboard motor with a long leg, but it is only 5 hp. This is enough only for mooring and for moving during the calm weather.

Judging by the photos, plastic and wood look good, there is a full set of sails, there is a jib furler, there are covers for the sails, all the ropes go to the cockpit.

Two service batteries, a solar panel, radar reflector, an anchor gear, an Origo alcohol stove, mooring equipment, etc.

The boat can be bought for 1000 euros with an engine, or without an engine for token money. I think it will be 100-500 euros.

If the boat is disassembled for parts and sold, then it will cost at least 3000 euros: D

A boat can be moored for winter in Estonia for 250 euros for the whole winter (not a month, but the whole season!).

Who asked me, where are the sailboats for 1000 euros? Here it is, it is not perfect, you need to put your hands somewhere, but this is a real ocean cruiser for 1000 euros!

Friends! Today we have a Maxi 68 with a 5 h.p. YAMAHA 4-stroke outboard engine for only 1500 euro!

Location: Sweden

Length: 6.8 meters
Width: 2.4 meters
Draft: 1.29 meters
Cabin height: 1.6 meters
Berths: 4
Kitchen (galley): available

It is a small boat for those looking to start on a minimal budget. There’s a fresh 4-stroke engine. It means fuel consumption will not be very high.

There’s a jib furler, the sails are in good condition, the running rigging is also in good condition. All the ropes go to the cockpit (which is quite convenient and rare for such a budget).

The wood is in good condition inside. The pillows could be altered to make the interior look more interesting.

There’s also an anchoring device, a navigator, mooring equipment, etc.

For the winter, you can moor it in Estonia. The price will be 250 euro for the whole season (not a month, but all winter).

You won’t go to the ocean on such a boat but it’s quite possible to sail around the Baltic, find out what yachting is and then sell it for 2000-3000 euro.

Hallberg Rassy Monsun with a Volvo Penta MD 2030 D engine for only 13600 euro!

Friends! Today we have another legend, Hallberg Rassy Monsun with a fresh and powerful Volvo Penta MD 2030 D engine for only 13600 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.37 meters
Width: 2.87 meters
Draft: 1.4 meters
Ceiling height: 1.9 meters
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

In my opinion, Hallberg Rassy Monsun is the perfect Vega, it has everything that I lacked in the last boat.

A good boat for two but it is bigger than Vega and there’s already a passage in front of the table. There’s a chart table that can be used as a workplace. You can install a shower on this boat. There’s an anchor chamber.

In this case, the engine was updated and a powerful Volvo Penta MD 2030 D was installed. There’s also a stern and bow platform (this is also very convenient). The sails are in good condition, there’s a jib furler, there’s a lazy jack, an inflatable boat with an outboard engine, there’s a heater, solar panels , mooring equipment, etc.

You need to buy a new stove, most likely there are some other little things. I would have pledged at least another 2000-3000 euro.

Additionally, a new set of sails is offered for 2900 euro.

There’s a brand new unmounted anchor winch.

This is a good option for those looking for a reliable long keel boat from the legendary Hallberg Rassy brand but for relatively little money.
