Friends, today we have a one-of-a-kind boat – Rocky Ocean 36 for 25 700 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 11.00 meters
Beam: 3.45 meters
Draft: 2.17 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

The boat was built in 2005 by an experienced shipbuilder who owned it until 2019.

The only boat with well-thought-out solutions.

There are some cosmetic flaws and small leaks on deck. Otherwise, the hull is solid and dry below the waterline.

There are many smart solutions in the cockpit for operating a boat alone with good access to winches and navigation equipment. The steering wheel was replaced with the tiller for better handling. A new autopilot with the drive at rudder stock was also installed.

Large sailing inventory: 5 staysails, 2 mainsails and a spinnaker.

The interior is in average condition, there are traces of leaks. It’s necessary to check these places carefully, preferably with good water pressure (for example, using a Karcher) and update the sealant, if necessary.

There is a wood-burning stove. There is a new compressor refrigerator in the galley.

The engine model is not mentioned in the ad, but the owner says it’s fully serviced.

Equipment: chartplotter, autopilot, VHF with AIS, anemometer (faulty), radar (faulty), echo sounder and more.

Cool and very well maintained Hallberg-Rassy with lots of updates.

The teak deck and all teak elements were updated in 2025. This is a very expensive upgrade. I’ve seen a lot of Hallberg-Rassy where the teak deck is in very poor condition, which is a really time-consuming process.

All canvases are also new. New spray hood, new cockpit tent and sail covers.

The standing rigging was inspected by professionals in 2015.

The interior is in very good condition. The galley has everything: pressurized water, a compressor refrigerator, a stove with an oven.

A Volvo Penta MD11C diesel engine is installed. There is no information about the engine condition in the ad.

Well-maintained owner’s Bavaria from 2005. The interior is in excellent condition. The boat has been in the hands of one owner since 2008.

The photo shows that the interior is clean and well maintained. Three cabins and a large bathroom with a shower.

In 2020, a new anchor winch was installed, but the owner says it needs to be reinstalled higher. Apparently the chain is coming in at the incorrect angle.

Latitude Tofinou 8.0 with a large sailing inventory for 59 000 euros!

Friends, today we have an exclusive daysailer — Latitude Tofinou 8.0 with a large sailing inventory for 59 000 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 8.00 meters
Beam: 2.53 meters
Draft: 1.07 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): ?

The boat is out of a usual format that we are used to seeing here, but it’s so attractive that I decided to show it to you.

The boat is designed for racing, but at the same time it has everything for a comfortable sailing, and it has an offshore «B» class classification.

There is even a shower in the cockpit, which is not found on cruise boats of this size.

I was also pleasantly surprised by the presence of an inboard Nanni engine. Usually, such boats are equipped with an outboard.

Perhaps, there is no galley. You can use an alcohol stove or a camping stove. The toilet is located under the forward bunk, as in private super jets 🙂

The boat is covered with teak. The wood is well maintained and looks great.

All the rigging looks new and can be neatly stowed away in special pockets. This is very convenient when the ropes are not tangled and lying underfoot.

A complete set of sails: a mainsail and a jib are made of laminate, and there is also a gennaker and a code zero (both on the furling).

The boat also has an autopilot, wind strength and direction meter, echo sounder, VHF and more.

Location: The Netherlands

Length: 10.28 meters
Beam: 3.33 meters
Draft: 1.60 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

A very stylish classic. The boat is literally «stuffed» with additional equipment.

Many improvements and upgrades have been made.

On boats of 70-80ss, the original teak on the deck is usually a “headache”. On this boat, the old teak has been completely removed, all holes are sealed, and the deck is painted with non-slip paint.

In the cockpit, the teak was cleaned and coated with oil.

In addition, all windows and seacocks were reinstalled.

A completely new plumbing system with hot water, filters, new taps, new hoses and a new pump. The plumbing in the toilet is also new.

The Volvo Penta engine has only 60 operating hours after its overhaul in 2016. There is a bow thruster.

New sails: staysail on a furling with white UV protection and a mainsail in a cover.

There are USB sockets in the salon and cabins. New 2 service batteries and one starter battery. Powerful 4000 Watt inverter, allows you to make coffee in a coffee machine while sailing.

The boat also has an autopilot, GPS, compass, a VHF radio station with cockpit mic, AIS, Raymarine instruments and much more.

By the way, in the original ad the price is 45K, but the owner makes a discount for our community.

Malö 40H with a Volvo Penta engine and all the necessary equipment for 21 900 euros!

Friends, today we have a Malö 40H with a Volvo Penta engine and all the necessary equipment for 21 900 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 9.55 meters
Width: 3.05 meters
Draft: 1.35 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

A very good and reliable boat made in Sweden. Malö boats were made at the same shipyard where the Hallberg-Rassy boats were manufactured.

These brands are often compared, and they really have a lot in common.

Two separate cabins + a spacious saloon. Separate toilet with shower. The woodwork looks great. It’s clear that the boat is being watched. It’s stored in a heated room every winter.

All seacocks and thru-hulls were replaced in 2018.

The sails look good. There is a mainsail with a cover and a staysail on a furler. There is no wiring of the halyards to the cockpit. This means that you will have to go to the mast to set up the mainsail. It’s not very convenient, but it’s generally ok.

The Volvo Penta 2003 engine is always serviced on time.

The boat has a Garmin chartplotter, autopilot, echo sounder, VHF radio station and more.

Location: Sweden

Length: 9.75 meters
Beam: 3.00 meters
Draft: 1.55 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Toilet (head): yes

I couldn’t get past that boat. This model is confidently included in my personal top boats up to 10 meters. My friend Alex had such a boat, and we used it to record some of the videos for the «Captain of Your Own Sailboat» video course.

These boats are quite rare in ads because people are not in a hurry to sell them. It’s a relatively durable and safe boat of incredible quality.

The new Volvo Penta D1-30 engine is installed on this boat. This is a very good and reliable engine.

The sails look good.

There is hot water in the galley and a new Isotherm refrigerator.

Fully dedicated electric toilet.

New solar panels with new battery charging. The condition of the batteries themselves is unknown, but I think that if there are so many consumers, then the batteries should work well.

All electrical wiring is new. It’s important.

There is a shower in the cockpit and a bathing platform.

There is also some equipment on the boat: Garmin chartplotter, VHF, Raymarine autopilot, heater and more.

This is a relatively compact but well-upgraded boat, ready for extended cruising. The current owner crossed the Atlantic solo in December, and the boat was thoroughly prepared for the journey.

The boat features new solar panels and a strong battery system with both AGM and lithium batteries. A powerful inverter allows for the use of a microwave, coffee maker, induction cooker, and even an electric grill.
