Hello, friends! Today we have an Etap 28 with a fresh Volvo Penta engine for 8,500 euro only!

Location: France

Length: 7.80 meters
Width: 2.92 meters
Draft: 1.65 meters
Sleeps: 5
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

The boat is well-maintained, clean, spacious and has a huge amount of useful and expensive upgrades.

It’s probably easier to write what isn’t there than to describe all the useful equipment)

The galley is equipped with a gimballed stove, sink and new refrigerator. The width of the salon is almost 3 meters. The light has been replaced with LED. There is a TV, a stereo system with a 600W amplifier and 4 speakers.

The sails are in good condition: genoa on the furling and a mainsail on the twist in the mast. The running rigging has been recently updated. There is a spray hood and even a bimini (which is quite rare on boats of this size), there is a deck shower and a bath ladder.

There is an anchor with a chain on the bow and a new electric anchor winch. There is a solar panel, 3 batteries and a shore charger.

All the necessary equipment for sea travel is also included: GPS navigator, chartplotter, new VHF radio station, autopilot autohelm ST2000 and much more.

The boat has a Volvo Penta engine with an operating time of only 500 hours.

Also, a dinghy (inflatable boat) with a four-stroke engine and a paid place in the marina are given with the boat.

Probably, this is one of the most interesting offers in recent times at such a small price. The boat really looks well-groomed, both technically and externally.

Friends! Today we have a Neptun 26 with a 14hp Nanni 2.50HE inboard diesel engine for only 8500 euro!

Location: Germany

Length: 7.8 meters
Width: 2.5 meters
Draft: 1.4 meters
Number of berths: 5
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available
Headroom: 1.8 meters

This sailboat is attractive due to the fresh engine and a lot of renovations.
Engine Nanni 2.50HE 14 hp 2007 with running time of 270 hours/ It’s almost new, so it should be in perfect condition.

Sails: a genoa, a spinnaker, a genaker and a storm staysail. Nothing is said about the mainsail, but I think it is there and the owner just forgot to specify.

A standard set of equipment is included: compass, GPS, NASA marine lag and echo sounder, wind indicator, VHF radio, navigation lights, shore power connection, charger and audio system, etc. As a minimum, there should still be service and starting batteries (a complete list of equipment should be requested from the seller).

Water tank – 90 liters, fuel tank – 20 liters.

There’s also a new sea toilet.

Kitchen: a two-burners gas stove, sink with tap and refrigerator. Everything is new!

There should be also mooring equipment, there may be a spray hood, a lazy bag and much more.

The interior (wood and plastic), floor, sofa upholstery, bilge pump, water supply system, outboard water filter were updated.

The price of the yacht also includes a port trailer. If it is not needed, then by selling or refusing from it, you can reduce the price by about 500 euros.

Perhaps the boat was restored, so it is necessary to examine the hull and keel very carefully. Ask what works were completed and when. Inspect the mast, rigging and sails (why is the mainsail not specified?), ask for documents for all renovations.

Judging by the description, the boat fully justifies its cost, but everything needs to be surveyed and checked!

Friends, today we have an Alo 28 with a fresh 13 hp Vetus engine for 5400 euro!

Location: Norway

Length: 8.76 meters
Width: 2.55 meters
Draft: 1.52 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

This boat had only two owners. It looks clean and tidy.

The boat is equipped with a fresh Vetus engine (2010) with an operating time of only 300 motor hours. Recently, a major engine maintenance was performed, oil and filters were replaced.

A full set of sails: a 2010 staysail on a furler and a brand new mainsail, although the mainsail is from the smaller boat, but it works very well.

New cushions have been sewn for all the seats and sleeping places.

The galley is equipped with a spirit stove, a refrigerator and a sink with a pressurized water supply.

A solar panel is installed on the boat. The owner says that he didn’t charge from the shore in a two-week passage.

There is teak on the floor and seats in the cockpit, there is also a teak table.

The ad says that the engine sometimes loses revs, and after 5 seconds it picks it up again. I think it will be easy to fix it on a fresh 2010 engine. Perhaps there is a problem in the fuel system, for example, some kind of pump is leaking or something like that.

There is an autopilot on the boat, but the owner wants to give it away for an additional fee. I think that with a reasonable bargain about the engine, it will be possible to pick it up with the boat.

Friends, today we have a Kirie 23 with a 27hp Solé Diesel MINI-29 engine for just 5000 euro!

Location: France

Length: 7.0 meters
Width: 2.5 meters
Draft: 1.05 meters
Beds: 5
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available (bio)

This boat is a motorsailer, that is, a motor vessel on which a mast and sails are installed. A quite powerful 27hp diesel engine is installed. For convenience, there is a stationary hard spray hood (possibly complete with a closed aft tent), where you will feel more comfortable in bad weather.

Engine: spanish Solé Diesel MINI-29 27hp has an operating time of only 10 hours. This is a new diesel that you can rely on and with which you will not have any problems in the foreseeable future, you only need to carry out service once a season.

The set of sails is small: a mainsail and a genoa on a furler, but they says nothing about its condition.

Equipment: compass, VHF radio, shore power, navigation lights, start and service batteries, battery charger. Control of the yacht by means of the helm.

The mooring equipment includes an anchor, a manual anchor winch, fenders, mooring lines and a mooring hook.

Fuel and water tanks, septic tank, bilge pump and a small swim platform.
The kitchen has a gas stove and sink with a tap.

Despite the fact that the boat has a brand new engine, and the interior looks neat in the photo, the description says that the boat needs repair. I would contact the owner and specify which units require repair, as well as detailed photos of problem areas. Then, when buying, it will be possible to bargain in detail!

Friends, today we have a Carter 30 with a 20 hp Volvo D120 engine (2007) for only 6000 euro!

Location: Great Britain

Length: 9.0 meters
Width: 3.0 meters
Draft: 1.68 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available
Ceiling height: 1.80 meters

This yacht is attractive due to the presence of expensive equipment and an almost new engine, while it is sold at a relatively low price!

The owner explained that the price is low because the boat requires some cosmetic job (in my opinion, this work will take 3 or 4days: seal up and cover cracks with gelcoat in some places, change the deck hatch gaskets).

The 2007 Volvo D120 has an operating time of only 400 hours!

Sails and rigging: mainsail and genoa with the furler, two new winches, updated running rigging.

Equipment: GPS-plotter, compass, depth sounder, tiller pilot, VHF radio, barometer, passive reflector (radar reflector), lazy bag and sprayhood.

Electrics: solar panel, 12v alternator charging, shore power, lead navigation and interior lights.

Mooring equipment: Danforth anchor with a manual windlass deck mounted, chain 40 meters, fenders, mooring lines and so on.

Galley: a gas stove with 2 burners and an oven, water tap (supplied by foot pump).

A separate toilet with sink, it is quite spacious.

A 57-liters water tank, a 38-liters fuel tank.

The sailboat is on the shore currently, and the mast is stored separately – it is convenient for inspection, repair and preparation of the boat.

They were definitely engaged in the boat and invested money, because they will not put a new engine on a bad boat!

Friends, today we have a Trident 80 with a fresh 15hp NANNI engine for 9500 euro!

Location: France

Length: 8 meters
Width: 2.92 meters
Precipitation: 1.6 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

The yacht is in very good condition both externally and technically. A big plus is that it’s already in the Mediterranean with a pre-paid docking place.

The galley has a large sink with fresh water under pressure and a 120-liter tank, a gas stove with four hotplates and a microwave.

Genoa with the furler and the mainsail are in good condition. There is a bimini in the cockpit, which is quite rare for boats with a length of 8 meters. There is a swim ladder at the stern.

In 2020, the underwater part was cleaned. Navigation lights have been replaced with LED lights, which has a positive effect on electricity consumption. Two new batteries (starting and service) with a 3-year warranty and two generators that allow you to quickly replenish their stock.

The NANNI 2.60H 15 hp engine was completely rebuilt in 2021 and has an operating time of only 1140 engine hours.

The boat also has all the necessary equipment: a VHF radio station, a new echo sounder 2021, an autopilot 2020, a new anchor of 10 kg, 25 meters of anchor chain and much more.

I guess that this is a very profitable offer, which is called “turnkey”, because of the location, a large amount of updates and the condition of the boat in general.

Friends! Today we have a Custom Baltic Navigator with a 10hp SAAB GG inboard engine for only 6900 euro!

Location: Netherlands

Length: 8.3 meters
Width: 2.65 meters
Number of beds: 4
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet: available

The Custom Baltic Navigator is a sturdy 8.3 m long steel vessel with an excellent hull and a well-maintained interior.

The boat has a 10hp SAAB outboard engine, which in most cases is quite enough for such a length.

The staysail has a furler. The set includes at least a mainsail and a staysail, the availability of other sails should be checked. The sails are in excellent condition and both have UV protection covers.

The boat is well-equipped. There’s a Raymarine GPS navigator, VHF radio station, log and echo sounder, battery chargers, Waeco refrigerator, Wallas Marin heater. The owner has invested in the equipment, which will be a plus for both ownership and subsequent sale.

New cushions for sitting, updated cushions and mattresses in the interior, two new detachable tables for the mess room and cockpit, spray hood, pumping latrine, 100 l water tank, 60 l fuel tank.

The main plus of this boat is that the owner handled the boat with care. The hull and the interior are in excellent, tidy condition. The wood is as good as new. The covers are on the sails, the photo shows the respect for every little thing. The boat, with this attitude, is most likely really in excellent condition. In addition, the owner sells it because of emigration to another country. The price is 6900 euro and most likely it can be reduced even more due to the need to sell it quickly.
