I was asked for a long time to post something without a mast, finally I found an interesting option and decided to share it with you.

The vessel has two cabins with separate entrances. Plastic, wood, and the general condition is good. There is a swimming platform, a cockpit tent, a GPS navigator, an echo sounder, a headlight, a steering wheel (!), a compass, an anchor, mooring ropes and other equipment.

The boat is perfect for canals, rivers and the sea.

I certainly prefer sailing yachts, but if you choose a vessel for rivers, or canals, or maybe for business, then this one is for you.

Albin Alpha. It is equipped with a renewed inboard engine Yanmar 10 h.p. for only 12 000 euro!

Hey guys! We have Albin Alpha today. It is equipped with a renewed inboard engine Yanmar 10 h.p. for only 12 000 euro!

Location: Norway

Hull length: 8.93 meters.
Width: 2.84 meters.
Draft: 1.65 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Galley (kitchen): available
Toilet: available

This sailboat looks just great. It is colored very neatly, the wood looks well-conditioned. The owner says he repaired the hull and the keel, so I would advise to ask what exactly did he improve.

There’s an inboard motor Yanmar 10 h.p., it works properly and what is more you can easily find any details and spare parts for this model at a cheap price. This engine is not original, it is the new one (replaced in 2010).

Mainsail and genoa with a furler is included, most likely there is also a spinnaker (look, there’s a spinnaker boom on the photo).

Apart from the usual equipment like the mooring ropes, fenders and anchor there’s also the new GPS Simrad and autopilot.

Cool offer in my opinion, especially if the owner made good-quality repair. The renewed motor and good layout will raise the price of this boat a lot in the Med if you just sail it there to resell 🙂

Bavaria Cruiser 30 with a Volvo Penta MD 2020D 18 h.p. engine for only 32 000 euro!

Hey guys! Today we have a Bavaria Cruiser 30 with a Volvo Penta MD 2020D 18 h.p. engine for only 32 000 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.45 meters
Width: 3.29 meters
Draft: 1.85 meters
Motor: inboard
Sleeping places: 6
Galley (kitchen): available
Toilet: available
Shower: available

A modern yacht with a lot of expensive equipment. It’s well-maintained, there are many updates and additions, and this all costs 32 000 euro only.

The Volvo Penta MD 2020D engine is 18 h.p., as the seller said it doesn’t have a motor hour meter, but it’s still in good condition.

There were a lot of updates in 2019, such as replacing the entire cooling system, replacing the thermostat, replacing the entire exhaust system. In the spring of 2020, all filters were replaced, and the anodes were also replaced.

All the sails have furler, the mainsail can be retracted into the mast, there is a genoa furler but protection from ultraviolet radiation should be made.

I used to be skeptical about furl into the mast, but I recently talked to several owners of such yachts and they said there were no problems with seizing and it was very convenient.

The yacht has a full-fledged large chartplotter where everything can be brought out, an autopilot, a life raft, a wind meter, an echo sounder, a radar, a stationary radio station, a diesel heater, a shower, a 100W solar panel, an anchor with a chain, a stern anchor, speakers inside and outside, USB sockets, TV antenna on the mast, new 2018 propeller, new spray hood, and winter awning that has not yet been used.

A lot of equipment, a lot of comfort, 2 bedrooms, a separate toilet with a shower (but most likely it is worth putting additional tanks with water)

Unique 10.3 meter motor-sailer with motor Volvo Penta MD19 (68 h.p.) for only 750 euro.

Friends! Today we have a unique 10.3 meter motor-sailer with motor Volvo Penta MD19 (68 h.p.) for only 750 euro (yes! Seven hundred and fifty euro!)

Location: Sweden

Length: 10.3 meters
Width: 3.00 meters
Engine: inboard
Galley (kitchen): available
Toilet: available

This is the very offer when after making an effort and investing some money into repairs and equipment you will receive a yacht for a round-the-world trip.

There is a central cockpit and a ketch rig. The deck is mahogany and the hull is plastic! In good condition they would cost from 30 000 euro minimum.

For the last 7 years it has been on the shore, that’s why it is in such a condition. The Swedes are neat people, the yacht was under the tent and on crutch all this time.

Volvo Penta MD19 engine (68 h.p.) is working properly but at the moment it doesn’t start. The oil, oil filter, fuel filter and starter battery were recently changed.

Most likely there is a problem with the low pressure pump as it is indicated in the ad. I think this can be fixed, including picking up one from a car (as some yachtsmen do even with modern engines).

The sails are all in good condition, but it might be worth making new ones, for example, in Tunisia, Estonia or Latvia.

It is necessary to varnish the superstructure, and clean it from dirt and mold.

The family has two yachts, this one has been with the owner for 16 years.

The owner realized he had no time for it, the yacht had been standing for 8 years, now they needed to make room and therefore they set such a price.

It is more of a project, there is a lot to do, but if you restore everything needed then it will be an excellent offshore yacht.

Usually I consider it inexpedient to invest in a yacht that much, but here everything can be the other way around, by investing 5000-10000 euros and your time you can get a very good yacht.

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.56 meters
Width: 2.84 meters
Draft: 1.51 meters
Motor: inboard
Sleeping places: 5
Galley (kitchen): available

The motor is equipped with an old engine, so it needs more attention while checking the boat’s condition. Besides, it’s 8 h.p. only, it’s rather low-power. But if doesn’t confuse you — go ahead 🙂

Plastic and wood look perfect, obviously this yacht was cared for a lot.

Sails are in good condition, there’s a lazy jack, a genoa furler, solar panel, baby stay, sprayhood covers in good condition, portative radio station, GPS navigator, batteries (were bought in 2018), spirit oven and some more equipment that wasn’t mentioned in the ad. It is also said there are plenty of ropes.

The seller wrote that he already paid for winter mooring, so you can easily leave the boat there till the spring.

Marieholm 32 with a Volvo Penta MD11 engine for only 6 000 euros!

Friends! Today we are going to have a Marieholm 32 with a Volvo Penta MD11 engine for only 6 000 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 9.56 meters
Width: 3 meters
Draft: 1.55 meters
Keel type: long, full
Sleeping places: 6
Galley (kitchen): available
Toilet: available

First of all, I would like to say that this is already a full-fledged long-keel cruiser for long-distance travel.

On such a yacht, you can go on a round-the-world trip without any problems, of course it will require some preparation but this is no longer a gamble, but a completely reasonable plan.

The Volvo Penta MD11 engine has been repaired and judging by the announcement it is in good condition. There is an autopilot, GPS navigator, a staysail twist, sails with UV protection, a bow platform with a stationary anchor on the bow (this is very convenient), mooring ropes and other equipment.

The only thing that confuses me is the old engine but if that doesn’t bother you, then 6000 euros for such a yacht is a very cool offer!

This yacht is a good choice for those who are looking for an inexpensive yet seaworthy and reliable offshore cruiser.
