Friends, today we have an Iroquois 30 MKII catamaran with a Yamaha outboard engine for 16 600 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 9.14 meters
Beam: 4.11 meters
Draft: 0.38 meters
Sleeps: 8
Kitchen (galley): available
Toilet (head): available

You have been asking me for a long time to show you catamarans, but it was very difficult to find a decent and inexpensive one.

I won’t talk much about the advantages and disadvantages of twinhulls in general, but let’s talk about this particular boat.

Iroquois 30 is a pretty high–quality boats. In total, about 200 hulls were produced, and, according to some sources, 160-180 of them are still being exploited.

The boat is very seaworthy. You can go up to 15 knots, which is about 3 times more than mono-hull cruisers of a similar size.

Keel (not to be confused with false keel) was reinforced. The hull was repainted in 2017. A new mast from the Maxi 900, a new boom. The portholes have been updated.

There is a galley with a new Dometic stove and oven on a gimbal. The cushions look good. I would update the interior a little and add coziness to the cabin, but this is a matter of taste. There is also a heater in the cabin.

Sails: a mainsail with a cover, a staysail on a furling and an old, but working gennaker. The sheets and halyards are brought into the cockpit.

A Yamaha 9.9 hp outboard engine is installed on the boat. The engine was serviced annually, works well and can keep the speed of up to 6 knots even against the wind. There is a fuel tank for 60 liters.

Also, the boat has an autopilot, a VHF, an awning in the cockpit, an anchor with a chain, two bathing platforms, fenders, mooring lines and much more.

The Volvo Penta MD 11C engine is serviced and preserved every year. The Maxi 95 boats have an unusual place of the engine room: it’s located under the table in the salon, so you have easy access to the engine from all sides, and this also has a positive effect on sail performance, thanks to the shift of the center of gravity closer to the middle.
