A very good and durable boat made in Sweden. Many consider the boats of this shipyard to be an alternative to the Hallberg-Rassy or Najad boats. I think this is true: the thick plastic hull, reliable long keel, central cockpit, furniture and fittings are made of high-quality materials.

The boat complies with Lloyd’s Register standards. 

The mahogany interior looks good. There is a galley with a stove with an oven and a gas leak detector. Hot and cold water under pressure. There is a compressor refrigerator.

Aft cabin with a separate entrance through the cockpit.

The deck and cockpit are covered with teak. It looks like the wood is in good condition and properly glued with a minimum of deck drilling.

Beam: 3.76 meters

Sleeping places: 8
Toilet (head): 2
Kitchen (galley): yes

A beautiful and very well maintained boat located almost in the heart of the Mediterranean.

Despite the marking, the boat is more than 41 feet. Grand Soleil boats are famous for their quality, seaworthiness and high performance.

The big refit was made in 2021. The engine was replaced, the standing rigging was replaced, and new sails were bought.

These are the most basic components that you should pay attention to when buying a yacht.

The boat also received a new teak deck. This is a very expensive upgrade, considering the coverage area. Now the boat looks very beautiful, and the wood has a nice warm shade.

The classic mahogany interior is also in good condition.

A complete set of sails: a new genoa on a furler, a good mainsail with a new cover, a new unused gennaker, as well as a spare and storm staysails. The entire running is new.

Scanmar 31 with a Volvo Penta engine for only 8200 euros!

Friends, today we have a Scanmar 31 with a Volvo Penta engine for only 8200 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 9.40 meters
Beam: 3.00 meters
Draft: 1.65 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

This model gives the feeling of a much larger boat than it actually is, due to a 3-meter width and separate bathroom.

For winter, the yacht is preserved and stored on shore. Since the boat has a fin keel, it’s very important to check the keel and the bottom for damage. It’s convenient to do this while the boat is on shore.

There are very few photos in the ad, but those that are available show that the boat is very well-maintained and in good condition.

The mahogany interior looks good. The hatches look new. Good cushions.

There is a table in the saloon that can be folded into a double bed.

Good sails: a new mainsail and self-tacking staysail on a furling. In winter, the sails are taken out for storage in a warm place.

The boat is equipped with a Volvo Penta 18 hp engine. The ad doesn’t contain information about any engine problems. I recommend checking with the owner when the last service was done.

There is a chartplotter, autopilot and anemometer. There is also a solar panel.

At the stern there is a swimming platform with a telescopic ladder.

The Scanmar is a very high—quality boat, and even on a 31-foot boat, you can feel more confident in harsh weather.

Length: 9.98 meters

A very interesting and well-equipped boat. The owner was preparing the boat for a trip around the world, but had to sell it.

Nice and well-maintained interior. New cushions all over the boat.

The galley has a large refrigerator, induction hob and sink. There is also a watermaker, which is a rather expensive device that is necessary for circumnavigation.

The entire electrical system has been updated and redesigned. A new electric engine, new 5 kWh lithium batteries, new 660W solar panels, and a 48V/3000W Victron EasySolar controller have been installed.

All appliances and devices are powered by solar panels and batteries.

A good set of sails: mainsail, staysail, spinnaker and storm staysail.

New steps have been made on the mast.

For long ocean crossings, a wind autopilot is simply necessary, and it’s available. The value is 3-5K.

Sweden Yachts C34 with a bow-thruster and a lot of upgrades for 22 400 euros!

Friends, today we have Sweden Yachts C34 with a bow-thruster and a lot of upgrades for 22 400 euros!

Location: Sweden

Length: 10.20 meters
Beam: 3.48 meters
Draft: 1.82 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes

Very nice and well-maintained Swedish classics. The boats of this shipyard are highly appreciated by yachtsmen, along with the more famous Hallberg-Rassy or Malö, but they are considered more budget-friendly.

Nevertheless, they are reliable and durable yachts with good sailing characteristics.

The boat looks well-maintained. The interior is in excellent condition. The cushions look like new.

Now the boat is standing on the shore in a warm, heated place.

U-shaped dining area in the saloon. There is a galley along the starboard side with a stove with an oven, a sink with pressurized water and a refrigerator. Plenty of storage space.

The ad does not contain information about the condition of the sails. It can be seen that the staysail has UV-protection, and a lazy bag has been sewn for the mainsail. Almost all the running rigging is new, which is good.

There is also no information about the engine in the ad, but the owner says that everything is working properly. I recommend you to check the recent engine maintenance receipts, if they are available.

The deck is covered with teak. Most likely, this is an original coating, but the teak looks good in the photos.

There is a spray hood.

The boat also has a new echo sounder, autopilot, anemometer, bow-thruster and more.

This small boat is in good condition and is perfect for those who plan to start their first sailing journey without big investments.

Last year, the owner updated the sprayhood and the cushion covers in the cabin.

The galley is equipped with an alcohol stove.

The head is fitted with a bio toilet.

The owner provided very little information in the original listing; there may be some equipment, like a chart plotter and compass, but it needs to be confirmed.
