Friends, today we have a Hero 101 after a full refit — just €18 700!

Location: Norway

Length: 10.10 meters
Beam: 3.20 meters
Draft: 1.80 meters
Berths: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

This sailing yacht underwent a full refit in 2023–2024 and is well-suited for both long-distance passages and short coastal cruises.

Over the past year, it was also partially used as temporary housing. It’s being sold simply because the family now owns two boats.

The hull was completely sanded and repainted, with new antifouling below the waterline. The deck was also refurbished, with EVA synthetic teak laid in the cockpit.

This type of decking is much more practical and easier to maintain than natural teak.

The sails appear to be in like-new condition. The winches and most of the deck hardware have been replaced. All halyards and sheets are new. The standing rigging was inspected in autumn 2023.

The interior has also been fully refreshed: the bulkheads have been painted and varnished, all hatches and windows replaced, new floorboards installed, new cushions and mattresses added (except for the aft cabin, which was used for storage).

New toilet with completely renewed plumbing. Freshwater tank has been removed and cleaned. New automatic pump, faucets, freshwater pump, and hoses installed.

The electrical system has been completely replaced: new wiring, batteries, lighting, shore power system, and charger.

The boat is equipped with a Sole Mini engine (26 HP). New starter, filters, and injectors.

Also on board: B&G chartplotter, VHF radio, dehumidifier, gas stove, fire extinguisher, and about 30 meters of shore power cable. Some tools and spare parts are included as well.

Friends, today we have a rare Swedish cruiser with a new engine and a lot of upgrades for 11 900 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 10.97 meters
Beam: ?
Draft: 1.50 meters
Sleeping places: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

I haven’t found any information about the model, but the boat looks attractive. Good price for 36 ft.

This is very similar to the skerry cruisers that used to be popular in Sweden.

Beautiful and well-maintained interior. There are all modern features: heating, hot water, LED lighting.

The galley has a stove, sink and refrigerator with a freezer.

The sails look new. A self-tacking staysail. The sails are stored in covers. There is a roller furler. All the lines are out in the cockpit.

The new Sole Mini 17 hp engine with a new three-bladed propeller. There is also a 5 kW Lewmar bow thruster. Since this boat has a long keel and the rudder is in front of the propeller, it’s very useful to have a bow thruster.

The starting and house AGM batteries are new. There are also 2 separate batteries for the thruster.

There is a lot of useful equipment on the boat: autopilot with baller drive and remote control, Garmin chartplotter with maps, Raymarine wind instruments, solar panel and more.

Vindö 50 with a Perkins engine for 44 000 euros!

Friends, today we have a Vindö 50 with a Perkins engine for 44 000 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 10.65 meters
Beam: 3.10 meters
Draft: 1.58 meters
Sleeping places: 7
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

Beautiful and very well-maintained boat. Only two owners in the entire history. As it says in the original ad: the current owner has owned the boat since 2000 and has left nothing to chance during these 24 years. I think that I know this approach. Over the past 4 years, about 40,000 euros have been invested in the boat, and now it’s being sold at almost the price of these investments!

Thick fiberglass hull with mahogany and teak deck. The wooden elements are in excellent condition.

Every winter, the boat was stored in a warm, heated room.

The interior and cushions are in excellent condition. The underwater part has been cleaned and painted with a new antifouling.

The batteries and charger are new.

New standing rigging and a new furling mast. Genoa is also on the furling. This allows you to handle the setting of sails even alone. By the way, in this model, the marking «50» it’s not the length of the boat, but a sum of the areas of the staysail and mainsail.

The Perkins 54 hp engine was purchased in 2001 and still works as new.

The hull and main components have been checked and are in perfect order. A new antifouling. New seacocks.

The 2006 Volvo Penta D1-30 engine is fully functional and serviced. The engine mounts are new, and it’s running very smoothly now.

The sails are in good working order. There is a furling.

In general, the list of completed works and improvements is very long. The boat was getting ready for a big passage. I consider such offers as «turn key» to be the most successful.

Colin Archer 42 with an updated interior for 29 500 euros!

Friends, today we have an incredibly beautiful Colin Archer 42 with an updated interior for 29 500 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 12.80 meters
Beam: 4.25 meters
Draft: 2.60 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

For lovers of classics — beautiful and durable Colin Archer 42 ft.

The hull is cast from ferrocement, and the deck is made of ship pine.

Personally, I am delighted to look at such boats, but I prefer to look from the outside 🙂 But surely there are fans of such boats among you.

I have seen many times when a similar vessel comes into port, and all eyes are on it, including those who have to take mooring lines of other boats. 😁

The boat looks quite modern inside. The updated and cozy interior. Large kitchen with lots of kitchen appliances.

Plenty of deck space. The owner says that he could easily accommodate 20 guests, and everyone felt comfortable, and the table in the saloon accommodates 12 people. At the same time, you can stand tall in the saloon.

Complete set of sails: 5 sails with matching ropes and blocks.

The boat is equipped with a fresh Vetus engine with a power of 65 hp. The exhaust system was replaced in 2023. A 400-liter diesel tank.

The boat also has a relatively new Lewmar anchor winch with a chain.

All seacocks and new anodes have recently been replaced.

There is a crack on the rudder. It must either be repaired or a new rudder must be made (all drawings are available).

The boat is classic, but it has modern navigation electronics: Garmin wind instruments, depth meter, VHF, a life raft, a new compass, and more.

Friends, today we have a boat for circumnavigation — Jeanneau Sun Magic 44 with a new engine for 41 200 euros!

Location: Norway

Length: 13.34 meters
Beam: 4.24 meters
Draft: 2.12 meters

The boat was made in the years when the French shipyard Jeanneau paid more attention to the quality of boats. The model was produced with the expectation of long-term usage in harsh conditions.

The hull is reinforced with kevlar, which gives it extra durability. There is still a «hunt» for these boats among those who are going to circumnavigate.

The interior is a bit «tired», but there is some charm of it.

There are 4 cabins and 9 berths in total. One of the cabins has been converted into a warehouse, you can return it back. 2 bathrooms with showers.

The keel bolts have been replaced by professionals — this is a very important update for such a boat.

The second important and expensive upgrade is the new Volvo Penta D2-55 engine.

Seacocks were also replaced with composite Truedesign.

The supply of fresh water is almost 500 liters. The diesel tank (220 liters) has recently been cleaned.

A new heater with deflectors in all cabins has been installed.

Also, a dinghy with a Suzuki 4 hp outboard is given with the boat.
