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 🙂

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)
