Friends, today we have a Dufour 2800 with a Yanmar engine for just 5800 euros!

Location: Greece

Length: 8.25 meters
Beam: 2.93 meters
Draft: 1.46 meters
Sleeps: 4
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet (head): available

The boat was sent to me by a subscriber. The most attractive is that the boat is located in Greece. The owner always used the boat for only two months a year, and the rest of the time the boat was on the dry dock.

The boat is simple, but quite autonomous. There is a solar panel and a 1000W inverter. An electric anchor winch with a chain is installed, which is very rare on boats of this length.

The interior and cushions are in good condition. There is a two-burner stove and a sink for cooking. A large folding table in the salon.

A full set of sails: a mainsail with a lazy bag and a staysail on a furling.

A Yanmar diesel engine is installed on the boat. There is no information about its condition in the ad, but judging by the photo, the engine is clean, without traces of oil and smudges. I recommend checking with the owner for information about the model and condition of the engine.

Also on the boat there is an autopilot, VHF, wind strength and direction meter and more.

Location: Norway

Length: 9.55 meters

A nice boat from the French shipyard. I’m sure that there will be many fans of this brand.

The boat was in the hands of one owner for 8 years.

The headroom in the cabin is more than 180 cm. There is a galley with a sink, a gimballed stove and an ice-box. There is a lot of space in the salon. The interior and cushions are in good condition. There is a heater on the boat.

A complete set of sails: mainsail with a cover, a staysail on a furling and a spinnaker. The sails are not new, but in good working condition.

The original Volvo Penta 18 hp engine was totally overhauled 8 years ago, immediately after the owners had purchased the boat. In 2020, the shaft was replaced and a new folding propeller was installed. New batteries and a starter were also installed.

The portholes on the boat were replaced 3 years ago. All leaks have been eliminated.

New sprayhood and awning are installed in the cockpit. There is a bathing ladder at the stern.

Also, the autopilot is given with the boat.

The photo shows a dingy (inflatable boat). The ad doesn’t mention it, but maybe the owner just forgot. I would try to pick it up with the boat.

Length: 9.07 meters

A beautiful, cozy and well-maintained sailing yacht. The boat was designed by the famous designer Peter Norlin, who had a hand in many Swedish yacht masterpieces.

The galley is equipped with a stove, oven and Isotherm refrigerator. There is hot water and a heater in the salon.

The interior and cushions are in very good condition. It’s clear that the boat was in caring hands.

A large sailing inventory: a fresh mainsail, a fresh genoa on a furling, a storm staysail and a new spinnaker 2018. All the sails are in excellent condition.

The boat has a Yanmar YSB 12 hp diesel engine. The engine runs quietly and it’s very economical. Consumption at a cruising speed of 5-6 knots is only 1 liter per hour. The engine was serviced annually by Marincenter Loftahammar professionals.

Friends, today we have a Maxi 95 with a new 2012 Vetus engine for just 7,250 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.50 meters
Beam: 3.20 meters
Draft: 1.55 meters
Sleeps: 6
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet (head): available

Looks like one of the best offers in recent times. The market price for these boats in Scandinavia is usually 2-3 times higher.

The Maxi 95 is perhaps one of the most spacious 31-foot boats. Large cockpit that can comfortably accommodate up to eight people. Double aft-cabin with an entrance through the cockpit. Separate spacious toilet.

Full set of sails: mainsail with a cover and a genoa on a furling with a cover. The photo shows a spinnaker boom, perhaps there is also a spinnaker.

A new Vetus 2012 diesel engine is installed on the boat. The total cost of the engine with the installation is almost 15k euros! By the way, another “kicker” of the Maxi 95 is the engine located under the table in the salon. This way you have access to the engine from all sides in case of repair or maintenance. Also, this arrangement of the engine shifts the center of gravity and the boat drags less water with its stern.

There is also a lot of useful equipment on the boat: chartplotter, autopilot, Wallas heater in the salon and aft-cabin, echo sounder, VHF, anchor with anchor winch at the bow, second anchor at the stern, new sprayhood and bimini and much more.

Of course, there are some disadvantages on a boat with such a big discount. The owner speaks honestly about them in the ad.

Firstly, I would make cosmetic repairs in the salon and update the wooden elements. You also need to paint the underwater part. There is a small leak in one of the portholes, you need to put it back on the sealant. In general, there is nothing complicated, you just need to invest a little time and love 🙂

There is a bowsprit with an anchor on the bow. The second anchor is at the stern. The sprayhood and cockpit awning are in good condition. A teak is laid in the cockpit. A bathing ladder and fender holders are installed on the stern.

Also there is a chartplotter, a Tacktick anemometer, a VHF, an echo sounder, fenders with covers and much more.

The owner honestly says that the boat has a small problem: two portholes leak a little. It is necessary to put it on a new sealant. Nothing complicated, but you will need to dig deeper.
