Friends, today we have a Trapper 28 with a new BMW engine for just 2200 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.61meters
Beam: 2.80 meters
Draft: 1.45 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Toilet (head): yes

Perhaps one of the most interesting offers in recent times for those who are looking for an inexpensive and well-maintained boat.

The interior is clean and neat. There is a galley with an alcohol stove. The toilet is located in the space between the saloon and the forward cabin.

The full set of sails includes a mainsail, a genoa on a furling with UV protection and a spinnaker. The sheets and halyards are brought in the cockpit, for the simplicity of setting sails even alone.

The old engine was replaced with a newer 7 hp BMW engine. To be honest, I didn’t face this engine model, but I think there is nothing unusual about it.

There is a small solar panel for charging the batteries. A new spray hood and a ladder for swimming in the stern.

The boat has a Raymarine chartplotter. There is no more information about the equipment.

You can also pick up props for winter storage with the boat.

A very good inexpensive boat. An interesting offer for those who are looking for their first boat with a small budget.

The boat looks clean and well maintained. The interior and cushions are in good condition.

There is an electric heater.

Partially dedicated head with bio toilet.

Two house batteries and a separate starter battery. The ad doesn’t say when they were installed. It’s possible that they will need to be replaced.

There is a small solar panel.

A new sprayhood has been sewn (the value is approx 500 euros).

A new trailer was also recently purchased for 500 euros.

A complete set of sails with a cover and a furling. The ropes are out in the cockpit.

There is no information about the equipment in the ad, but the photo shows some kind of displays in the cockpit. Perhaps it’s an echo sounder or an anemometer.

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.27 meters
Beam: 2.82 meters
Draft: 1.55 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

Nice and well maintained boat. There is a large sailing inventory: a mainsail, a staysail, two genoas, a storm jib and a spinnaker. There is no furling, this may be a reason for a bargain, but, most likely, it’s already included in the price.

The interior looks very good. There is a galley with a stove, sink and refrigerator. There is a freshwater tank.

All dishes and kitchen utensils are included.

There is a Wallas heater.

A partially dedicated toilet (between the salon and the forward cabin) with a new toilet bowl.

The boat has an inboard Yanmar YSE engine with a power of 8 hp. The ad does not mention any problems with the engine, but it’s a fairly old engine, and I would check it carefully.

There is a solar panel on the rack.

There is also a chartplotter and a VHF on the boat.

Albin Vega with a Volvo Penta engine for 2100 euros!

Friends, today we have a very interesting Albin Vega with a Volvo Penta engine for 2100 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.25 meters
Beam: 2.46 meters
Draft: 1.12 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes
Shower: in the cockpit

A very updated Albin Vega. The boat looks well maintained. The owner made a lot of cool upgrades.

First of all, the rudder is shifted back for better steering. So the tiller takes up less space in the cockpit.

A good anchor winch with a 40-meter chain has been installed. The hull was polished and additionally insulated.

A davit is installed. This solution allows you to conveniently store the dinghy and not hold it on the bow or carry it behind. This is a fairly rare and good solution for a boat of this size.

The interior and furniture, including the galley, have been updated. There is hot water under pressure.

Another cool solution is the built-in vacuum cleaner in the cockpit with a 10-meter hose. There is also a hot shower in the cockpit.

Among other things — a new starting battery and shore power.

The boat has an inboard Volvo Penta engine. The engine has been repaired, but the cylinder block gasket needs to be replaced (everything necessary for this has been purchased).

There is no information about sails in the ad, but the photo shows that all sails are available, including the spinnaker.

The boat clearly requires some investments, but nevertheless, the offer looks very interesting.

Maxi 95 at an incredibly low price, only 2977 euros!

Friends, today we have a Maxi 95 at an incredibly low price, only 2977 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.50 meters
Beam: 3.20 meters
Draft: 1.60 meters
Sleeps: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

I don’t usually post projects, but this boat isn’t really a project.

The boat is fully ready to go to sea, except for some cosmetic work.

The boat has been standing on the shore for the last 3 years. The owner was going to make a refit, but he doesn’t have time for it anymore. It remains to sew new cushion covers and assemble a new kitchen (now there is not even a countertop in the galley). One of the hatches also needs to be replaced.

There is an impact mark on the stem. You need to look at the place.

Otherwise, the boat has working sails. Standing rigging was checked a few years ago.

Relatively new batteries: 4 house batteries and a separate starter battery. A new charger.

There is a heater in the cabins. There is also a Garmin chartplotter on the boat.

The Yanmar 3GM engine has always been serviced on time and is now starting at half turn.

Maxi 95 is a boat with two separate cabins, a dedicated toilet and a spacious cockpit. If you put it in order, you can get a good reliable boat for a small investment.

The price of these boats in Scandinavia can reach up to 20K, and it seems to me that this could be a very interesting offer.

Friends, today we have a Maxi 77 with new sails and a lot of upgrades for 2200 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 7.70 meters
Width: 2.50 meters
Draft: 1.45 meters
Sleeps: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes
Shower: no

An interesting offer for those who are just about to start sailing.

On such a boat you will understand all the basic principles, but it will forgive you more mistakes.

Due to the fact that all the ropes are placed in the cockpit, the boat can be operated even alone. There is also an autopilot.

Despite its small size, the boat is quite autonomous: there is an 85-liter fresh water tank, there are two solar panels and a good battery pack.

The teak interior is in good condition. There is a stove and a sink with an electric pump. There is also a refrigerator and a TV.

The toilet is in the forward cabin.

A good sailing set: genoa 1, new genoa 2, new mainsail, staysail and spinnaker. All the running rigging is also new.

The boat has a new Mercury 8 hp outboard motor.

There is also a spray hood, a teak in the cockpit, fenders, mooring lines, a fire extinguisher, a radar reflector and much more.

Columbie 66 with an inboard Yanmar engine for only 1700 euros!

Friends, today we have a Columbie 66 with an inboard Yanmar engine for only 1700 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 6.60 meters
Beam: 2.50 meters
Draft: 1.50 meters
Sleeps: 4
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): no

Perhaps the «biggest little boat» in recent times. The boat is Norwegian-made and has the classification of an offshore cruiser.

It was possible to place a separate toilet with a sink at 22 feet. Spacious interior. There is no galley in the project, but you can buy a good alcohol stove. The supply of freshwater is 40 liters.

A large double bed in the forepeak.

Full set of sails: mainsail and staysail on a furler. The sails look good.

An inboard Yanmar 1GM10 diesel engine is installed on the boat. The ad does not say what condition it is in. I also see an outboard motor. This may be a «ring call» that the main engine may sometimes have problems. It’s better to check with the owner.

There is an anchor with a roller on the bow. There is a spray hood. There is no information about the equipment, but there is an echo sounder in the photo.

Friends, today we have a Jaguar 25 with an inboard Yanmar engine for only 1700 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 7.62 meters
Beam: 2.51 meters
Draft: 1.73 meters
Sleeps: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

An interesting small and inexpensive yacht.

There is quite a lot of space inside, despite the small length. Good standing height.

This offer may be an ideal option for the first boat.

The hull was repainted and polished. New antifouling. New cushions in the salon.

A galley with a sink and a roomy refrigerator, like on a large yacht. I don’t see the stove in the photo, perhaps it’s unavailable, or it was removed.

The toilet is located between the salon and the forward cabin.

The sails are in good shape: the mainsail with a cover and the staysail with a classic setting with a bag.

The big advantage of this offer is the presence of a working inboard Yanmar 1GM10 engine on the boat, which starts the first time and works like a clock.

There is also an autopilot on the boat, which makes this offer even more interesting.
