Friends, today we have a Dehler Duetta with a Farymann engine for 23 499 euros!

Location: Canary Islands

Length: 8.60 meters
Beam: 2.95 meters
Draft: 1.60 meters
Sleeping places: 4
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes
Shower: in the cockpit

A very well–maintained small ocean A-class boat. The offer is interesting for its location. The yacht is located in the marina on the island of Gran Canaria. The docking place is owned by the yacht owner, and he is ready to provide it for the new captain. A great opportunity to get a place to stay in the Canary Islands all year round.

Over the past 5 years, the boat has been well equipped: a new refrigerator with a freezer, a new toilet with an electric flush, new cushions in the cabins. There is a TV in the salon.

A complete set of sails: a mainsail with a cover and a staysail on a furling with UV protection. The sails are in good working order. The sheets and halyards are brought into the cockpit.

The boat has a 20 hp Farymann engine. The engine has a running time of 3,000 hours. There is no information in the ad about any problems with the engine, but judging by the general condition of the boat, it’s most likely serviced and working properly.

A teak is laid in the cockpit. There is a shower and a bathing platform. There is a steering wheel with autopilot. The textiles look new: the spray hood and cockpit tent are red in the color of the hull. It looks beautiful.

A brand new anchor winch has also been installed.

Length: 10.90 meters
Beam: 3.49 meters

An interesting boat on the French Riviera. The price for such a ketch looks very attractive considering the region.

The boat originally had two bathrooms, but the current owner has converted one of the toilets into a storage room.

The Yanmar engine was completely repaired this year and is working well.

There are also dinghy with a 2.5 hp Yamaha engine.

The boat has some additional equipment: autopilot, chartplotter, VHF, echo sounder, anemometer, GPS, compass, anchor winch, solar panels and much more.

The interior is in excellent condition. There are new mattresses in the cabins. This year, the cabins received new upholstery.

Friends, today we have a Comfortina 38 with a Volvo Penta engine for €20 000!

Location: Netherlands

Length: 11.65 meters
Beam: 3.52 meters
Draft: 1.95 meters
Sleeps: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

Comfortina 38 is a high-quality and quite seaworthy boat. The price for this model can reach 60K depending on the region. 

The offer looks very interesting. Externally, the boat is well-maintained.

In 2001, the teak deck was re-laid. It’s important that the boards are planted on a sealant, and not as all used to do before — screwed through. The wood still looks quite good.

The interior is in good condition. A galley with a stove and oven on a gimbal. There are two sinks and a refrigerator. All cookware and kitchen utensils are included in the price.

Separate toilet with shower. There is also a cockpit shower.

Sails: mainsail with a cover and a staysail on a furler with a UV cover. The sails look good. The photo shows a spinnaker boom, perhaps there is a spinnaker itself. 
The running rigging is new and has been brought to the cockpit.

The boat is equipped with a Volvo Penta 2000 diesel engine. Unfortunately, there is no information about its condition in the ad.

A lot of equipment. There is even a radar. It’s not new, but if it fulfills its task, then it is good. There is also a relatively new Raymarine autopilot.

There is an anchor winch on the bow. There is a life raft, but the date of service is unknown.

Overall, the offer looks very interesting. Surely there is something to fix or finish on the boat.

Friends, today we have a Finngulf 34RC with a fresh Craftsman engine for € 28 000!

Location: Germany

Length: 10.43 meters
Beam: 3.26 meters
Draft: 1.88 meters
Sleeps: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

A good and seaworthy boat made in Finland. The model was created to participate in regattas, but at the same time it has everything you need for comfortable cruising.

The boat looks well-kept. Beautiful interior. It looks like the cushions have been updated. There are good new mattresses on the berths.

A galley with a stove with an oven, two sinks and a refrigerator.

The electrics have been updated. New lithium house batteries, new starter battery. Separate lithium battery for the anchor winch. There is a solar panel.

There is a hydro generator on the boat, the owner wants an additional fee for it (a new one costs about € 2500). I would try to bargain and pick it up for free.

The standing rigging has been partially replaced (a very important update).

A complete set of sails: a new mainsail 2024 with a lazy bag, a new genoa 2021 on a furling, a spinnaker with a carbon spinnaker boom and older spare sails. New Dyneema running rigging. All the ropes are out in the cockpit.

The boat has a fresh 2014 Craftsman CM 2.16 engine with 1400 hours, which runs well.

The cockpit is covered with teak. There is a spray hood and a swimming ladder at the stern. The anchor winch with a 50 meter chain on the bow.

There are some useful electronics on board: TackTick devices (the current Raymarine), autopilot, VHF with AIS. Judging by the photo, there is no chartplotter, instead they used a phone with Navionics maps. I sailed this way from Sweden to Tunisia.

Friends, today we have a Hallberg-Rassy Monsun with a Volvo Penta engine for 31 100 euros!

Location: Greece

Length: 9.37 meters
Beam: 2.87 meters
Draft: 1.40 meters
Sleeps: 5
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes
Shower: yes

A reliable and safe boat from the legendary Swedish shipyard. The hull is made of thick plastic and has a long keel.

The market price range for this model is about 30-35K, and taking into account the region, the offer looks very interesting.

The classic interior is in excellent condition. All the wooden elements look good.

There is a Webasto in the salon. There is hot water in the galley and in the shower. There is a BBQ grill on the stern.

A complete set of sails: a mainsail with a cover, a staysail on a furler and a blister (asymmetric spinnaker). The halyards are carried in the cockpit, which allows you to set sails even alone.

The Volvo Penta MD11C engine is serviced and works perfectly.

Teak deck and teak cockpit. The wood looks good.

There is a fairly powerful anchor winch with an anchor and 50 meters of anchor chain on the bow.

The new sprayhood and bimini are very good for the Middle—Earth.

A dinghy (inflatable boat) with a Honda outboard motor is given with the boat. This is undoubtedly a big advantage.

There is also a lot of useful equipment on the boat: chartplotter, autopilot, echo sounder, VHF, anemometer, GPS tracker, compass and much more.

Location: Denmark

Length: 10.52 meters
Beam: 3.05 meters
Draft: 1.83 meters
Sleeps: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes
Shower: yes

A good boat after refit. The interior was updated, the wooden elements were sanded and varnished.

In 2016, the boat received a new teak deck. The teak looks good, has sufficient thickness and a pleasant warm shade.

New 330 Ah lithium batteries. The electric wiring was also updated. There is a solar panel.

There is a new stove with an oven in the galley. The gas hoses were also replaced. It’s good. Often the hoses on old boats are old, and this can cause a gas leak.

Separate toilet with shower.

The photo shows genoa on a furling. The sail looks good. An in-mast mainsail. The running rigging looks fresh.

There is no information about the engine or any problems with it in the ad. I recommend checking all the information about the engine before buying.

There is a bow thruster, that’s good.

The boat has a lot of useful equipment on the boat: chartplotter, autopilot, radar, VHF, echo sounder, EPIRB and much more.

There is also a life raft for 6 people, but it’s required for checking.
