13-metres mortary ketch with an updated inboard motor Solé 45 h.p. (2010) for only 25000 euro!

Hey guys! Today we have a 13-metres mortary ketch with an updated inboard motor Solé 45 h.p. (2010) for only 25000 euro!

Location: France

Hull length: 13,20 meters

Unfortunately all the other dimensions are not mentioned in the original ad but you can specify it with the owner if required.

You asked for smth bigger, right? This is a unique option 🙂

This yacht is made of reinforced cement, this material is rather specific but it is used for yacht building indeed.

The engine Solé 45 h.p. was installed in 2010, the haulage is less than 900 hours.

The sails were in usage for 2 seasons only! Genoa and jib have the furler and UV protection. Mainsail and mizzen sail have lazy bag and there are also stairs on the mast.

There’s a huge amount of equipment: 2 solar panels installed on the arc, Очень много оборудования: 2 солнечные панели, установленные на арке, wind generator, water generator, 4 service batteries, 1 starter battery, radar, radio station, echo sounder, life raft, speed meter, GPS navigator, kitchen with a baking oven, 80-litres fridge and other equipment.

The owner is planning to do the antifouling, the hull and the desk need to be painted as well.

The sailboat is very big and has a very spacious interior, it is the whole ship. You can see the photos: the condition of the interior is rather good.

Lots of equipment, long keel, different electricity sources, stairs on the mast, radar – I think all these markers mean that the yacht was prepared for a world cruise or other serious passages.

DJINN 26 QUILLAAD with a Volvo Penta 18 h.p. inboard motor from 2004 for only 2 800 euro!

Friends! Today we have DJINN 26 QUILLAAD with a Volvo Penta 18 h.p. inboard motor from 2004 for only 2 800 euro!

Location: France

Hull length: 7.95 meters
Width: 2.95 meters
Draft: 1.35 meters
Sleeping places: 7
Kitchen (galley): yes
Toilet: yes

The sailboat is located between Nice and Cannes so you can sail almost directly to Tunisia 🙂

The engine was replaced with Volvo Penta 18 h.p. in 2004.

The announcement doesn’t say anything about the sails but the photo shows that there’s a mainsail, a genoa with genoa furler and UV protection.

The description is quite short. Guess the seller isn’t very versed in this matter. There’s said the reason for the sale is the death of the owner.

The length of the yacht is 7.95 meters which means that mooring fee will be in the up to 8 meters category. This is usually the cheapest mooring.

The sofas don’t look good and the boat itself is also dirty. But if you clean it and purchase new pillows then it will look much better.

Apparently the owner got sick and no one looked after the sailboat for a long time and the heirs decided to sell it cheap as it was (they didn’t even put it in order).

Such offers are extremely rare. It is clear the boat needs some work but there’s an updated inboard engine, 2 cabins, a separate toilet, and even a convenient size. What could be better? For only 2 800 euro someone will get really lucky!

Westerly Centaur with an inboard engine Volvo Penta MD 2010 C BT for only 5 790 euro!

Hey guys! Meet Westerly Centaur with an inboard engine Volvo Penta MD 2010 C BT for only 5 790 euro!

Location: Netherlands

Hull length: 7.92 meters
Width: 2.57 meters
Cabin height: 1.8 meters
Draft: 0,90 meters (bilge keel)
Sleeping place: 5
Galley (kitchen): available
Toilet: available

A legendary sailboat, a lot of people like it a lot. The length is under 8 meters, so it falls under the category “up to 8 meters” which means that the mooring fee will be one of the cheapest.

The motor Volvo Penta MD 2010 C Bt (1998) powered 10 h.p. is installed. The consumption is about 1.5 litres per hour, cruise speed is 5 knots.

The sails were replaced in 2017, the jib is with the furler but the UV protection has to be made if your final destination is the Mediterranean sea.

There’s a lot of equipment: autopilot Raymarine ST2001, chartplotter Humminbird 2019, echo sounder, stationary vhf radio station, 2 batteries, anchor, anchor winch and anchor chamber (quite a rare thing for this size!), baby stay, life-saving jear, mooring equipment and so on.

Cabin height is 1.8 meters, most people can stay full length here and avoid bumping up the ceiling, the yacht is rather spacious for its size, you can see it in the photos.

A great option as I see it, the motor was renewed, the sails are fresh, there’s a lot of equipment, besides, it is already in the Netherlands (it is much closer to the Mediterranean in comparison with Sweden)).

Sun Odyssey 29.2 with a Yanmar 18 h.p. Diesel inboard motor for only 29 900 euro!

Friends! Meet Sun Odyssey 29.2 with a Yanmar 18 h.p. Diesel inboard motor for only 29 900 euro!

Location: France, Mediterranean Sea

Hull length: 8.8 meters
Width: 3.0 meters
Draft: 1.4 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Galley (kitchen): available
Toilet: available

That’s an example of a relatively modern sailboat in good condition (built in 1998). It’s a spacious, beautiful and small yacht.

Yanmar 2GM20 engine 18 h.p. is properly functioning and was regularly serviced by specialists. Engine mileage is 820 motorhours which is very good (almost new).

The sails are in excellent condition. It’s also said they were regularly checked and kept at home out of season. Standing rigging is fully tested!

There’s a lot of equipment and it has been updated. For example, the refrigerator was changed in 2018, the electric pump in the toilet was replaced in 2020. There’s also a deck shower, a ladder for getting out of the water, bimini, spray hood and awning which were changed in 2017.

Electric anchor winch has a bow and stern control. The anchor chain is 50 meters.

There’s a complete set of rescue equipment for 4 people (life raft, life line, horseshoe preserver, pyrotechnics, walkie-talkie, etc.). Emergency pump was replaced in 2017. There’s a wind meter, wind indicator, speedometer, an echo sounder, GPS navigator, portable GPS navigator, autopilot, shore powered fresh batteries (2018 and 2019).

The antifouling was done in June 2020 so you can definitely keep the antifouling coating for a year.

The yacht is in a great location. The seller offers mooring near Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Nice. In my opinion, it’s quite expensive there (most likely from 3000 euro per year). I would rather moor the yacht in Tunisia, Turkey or Greece.

In Tunisia, the mooring fee for this size is about 1000 euros per year, including electricity, water and taxes 🙂
