Shipman 28 with a fresh Ferryman Diesel engine for 4400 euros!

Friends, today we have a well-maintained Shipman 28 with a fresh Ferryman Diesel engine for 4400 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.86 meters
Beam: 2.60 meters
Draft: 1.55 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

Nice and very well-maintained Shipman. Many people like this model for its layout.

The interior is in very good condition. New cushions. The saloon is clean and cozy.

There is a galley with a stove, sink and refrigerator.

The Shipman 28 has a fin keel, but it’s molded with the hull and has no bolts, which means there is nothing to rot. The rudder is protected with a skeg.

The old engine was replaced with a newer Ferryman Diesel with 12 hp with a reliable straight shaft.

I see in the photo a transom for mounting an outboard motor. It worries me. Usually, if you hang a transom «just in case», then most likely this case has already happened. It may have been installed before the purchase of a new engine. You have to be careful.

There is a mainsail with a cover and a staysail on a furling. New Lewmar winches have been installed.

It’s said that the deck is covered with teak, but this is not visible in the photo. There is an anchor at the stern.

The photo shows that there is a spray hood, but the owner says it needs to be repaired (something with a zipper).

There is no information about the equipment, but there may be some minimal set, for example, VHF or log. I’ve already seen this before, I came to see an «empty» boat, but in fact it turned out that everything was there, and even an autopilot.

Comfort 30 with a teak deck and autopilot for only 5000 euros!

Friends, today we have a well-maintained Comfort 30 with a teak deck and autopilot for only 5000 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 9.09 meters
Beam: 3.03 meters
Draft: 1.70 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

Very neat and well-maintained Comfort 30.

A nice Swedish sailboat with a nice interior and a beautiful teak deck.

The boat is ashore now. Parking is paid till the end of summer of 2025. It’s very good. There’s probably something on the boat that can be fixed or improved, and you won’t be pressed for time.

Two new batteries, purchased in 2024. New batteries are always a good thing. I would definitely check how it’s connected and in what condition the electrical wiring is.

The galley has a two-burner stove, sink and Isotherm refrigerator with freezer.

A new spray hood and cockpit tent have been sewn. There are cushions in the cockpit.

The deck is covered with teak. The wood looks great in the photo. Teak is expensive and difficult. It’s better trying to keep it in good condition than fixing it later.

Complete set of sails: a mainsail in a cover, a self-tacking jib on a furler and a genoa. The sheets and halyards are brought into the cockpit.

The boat has an inboard Volvo Penta MD7A engine, which was overhauled by professionals last year.

There is also an autopilot on the boat. It’s great. Especially in combination with the lines in the cockpit, as well as the self-tacking jib on the furler, it’s easy to cope with such a setup alone.

Albin Accent sailboat for 3160 EUR!

Friends, today we’re reviewing an Albin Accent sailboat for 3160 EUR!

📍Location: Sweden, Haninge

Length: 8 meters
Beam: 2.8 meters
Draft: 1.54 meters
Berths: 4–5 (depending on height)
Toilet: yes
Galley: yes

The price is slightly above average for Swedish listings, but that’s due to the many upgrades and the overall great condition of the boat.

One family has owned it for the past 8 years. Based on the announcement, they’ve had many adventures and explored the Baltic Sea thoroughly 🙂 Now their family is growing, so they need a bigger boat.

You can clearly see the boat was well-loved and had money invested into upgrades — probably worth more than the boat herself.

The mainsail (dacron) was purchased in 2019. It has lazy bag and lazy jacks (not mentioned in the ad but visible in the photos), a Genoa 1 on a Furlex, a symmetrical spinnaker in good condition.

The sprayhood was updated in 2024.

Other great features:
Simrad TP10 autopilot (2023), depth sounder, compass, GPS plotter with Stockholm archipelago charts, 2 x 25W solar panels (2023), 10A MPPT solar regulator (2020), charging station with USB and cigarette lighter socket, 2 x Bruce anchors, etc.

In the galley, there’s a fresh energy-efficient compressor fridge (2022) and a gas stove. Electric sea and freshwater pumps.

Toilet has a holding tank and deck pump-out fitting.

The boat comes with 4 struts and a winter storage tent.

I’d say this boat is fully loaded. Not many owners are willing to invest so much in a budget-friendly sailboat.

I’d probably refresh the cushions and do some light woodwork inside to make it look newer. Other than that, this is a dream — especially for one just starting sailing.

Tur 84 with new sails for only 4500 euros!

Friends, today we have a well-maintained Tur 84 with new sails for only 4500 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.35 meters
Beam: 2.60 meters
Draft: 1.35 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

A safe and well-maintained family boat with a lot of storage space. There are only three owners in the entire history.

Two house batteries and one starter battery. There are solar panels and shore power. This setup is enough for all consumers and even a refrigerator.

The original Yanmar YSB-8 engine has been maintained well throughout its ownership history and runs like clockwork with low consumption.

The sails are quite fresh: the 2019 mainsail with a cover, the 2020 staysail with a furler and a gennaker with a sock. There is also a spare older genoa.

Sunwind 26 with an inboard engine for only 4300 euros!

Friends, today we have a well-maintained Sunwind 26 with an inboard engine for only 4300 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 7.80 meters
Beam: 2.60 meters
Draft: 1.50 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

A very well-looked-after boat with everything you need to sail.

The boat has been owned by one family for the last 20 years. The interior is clean and tidy. The cushions look good.

There is a galley with a gas stove and a sink with fresh and seawater. The water supply is 76 liters, which is quite good for a small boat.

The diesel heater panel is visible in the photo. Even if it doesn’t work, the fact that it has already been installed is half the work. You can always simply replace the module itself, which is not so expensive.

Good sailing inventory: mainsail, genoa, staysail and spinnaker with boom. The sails look like new in the photo.

The boat has an original Volvo Penta MD5A inboard engine. This is a fairly reliable unit if it is properly maintained.

The sprayhood has been sewn. There is a swimming ladder at the stern.

There is no information about the devices. The photo shows a display in the cockpit, perhaps there is an echo sounder. There is also a new Silva compass and VHF.

You can pick up shore storage cradles with the boat. People usually don’t think about their availability until it’s time to lift the boat.

The history of Hiddensee is quite fascinating. Hiddensee never positioned itself as a shipyard, but offered those who dreamed of sailing the opportunity to build their own boat. Thanks to the shipyard’s equipment, high-quality DIY boats were created 🙂

The boat is currently in winter storage on land with the mast removed. The owner has booked a crane for March 4, so on that date, it can be picked up by trailer. Boat weight: 2 tons.

The yacht is in good condition, well-maintained, compact, yet cozy and equipped with everything needed for comfortable cruising.

Trio 80 with a fresh Solé Mini engine for only 4400 euros!

Friends, today we have a very well-maintained Trio 80 with a fresh Solé Mini engine for only 4400 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.05 meters
Beam: 2.80 meters
Draft: 1.50 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

A very interesting boat. In the entire history of ownership, there have been only two owners who both took very good care of the boat.

The last owner used the boat for only one week a year.

Cushions, lines, sails, batteries and other equipment have always been stored in closed heated rooms.

The hull was cleaned and polished every year. New antifouling before each season (except this one).

The teak interior is in good condition. The spacious U-shaped dining area and the galley along the side create the feeling of a larger boat.

The galley has a good alcohol stove, sink and an ice-box.

The sails look very good. The staysail is on a furling. The sheets and halyards are brought into the cockpit.

The boat has a fresh 14 hp Sole Mini engine. The fact that the boat has a fresh engine is very good, because such an upgrade costs twice as much as the boat itself (from 7K).

There is no information about any equipment on the boat, it’s possible that there is only a manual VHF. This is normal for such a price. The photo also shows a solar panel and a compass.

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.25 meters
Beam: 2.56 meters
Draft: 1.12 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

Albin Vega is a very reliable and durable boat. I used this model to make the passage from Sweden to Tunisia, and the boat performed its best.

This #yacht has been slightly upgraded — the rudder is shifted aft, which gives the boat better handling, including in reverse.

New eco-friendly antifouling. Teak in the cockpit and artificial teak on the deck.

The boat was used in fresh water, which is good.

This yacht has an inboard Yanmar 2GM engine. The engine is serviced and preserved after each season.

New 2024 service battery.

The original #sails are in working order, but the sailing inventory may need to be updated in the future. There is a roller furler.

Well-maintained interior with new mattresses.

There is also a Raymarine chartplotter, vindex, compass, a new bilge pump and more.

Very well-maintained Albin Accent. The interior cushions and upholstery are in very good condition. The boat is clean and cozy.

Let me remind you that the same model sailboat is waiting for one of you as a prize in the drawing among those who subscribed to my video course.

Galley with two-burner stove, refrigerator and sink with fresh and seawater.

The toilet is located between the main salon and the forward cabin. There is a septic tank.

Separate starter battery and house batteries. There is a 100W solar panel. There are 220V outlets and a shore power cable.

The original mast and boom were replaced with Selden ones.

The sails are in good condition: an almost new staysail on a furler, a mainsail with a cover, a genoa in good condition and an almost new spinnaker.

The boat has a Yanmar YSG8 engine. The engine starts and works well. There is a 25 liter fuel tank.

There is a spray hood. An anchor with a few meters of chain and a rope at the stern.

There is also some equipment: an echo sounder, a windex, an anemometer and a lag (speedometer).

The offer includes shore props and a cover. This is also very important, especially at the end of the season. Often people do not think about how they will store the boat on the shore and have to look for a keel block or props at the last moment.
