Friends, today we have a Maxi 95 with a dead engine for only 2500 euros!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Location: Norway<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Length: 9.50 meters
Beam: 3.20 meters
Draft: 1.55 meters
Sleeping places: 6
Toilet (head): yes
Kitchen (galley): yes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my opinion, this is a very interesting offer. A fully functional and well-maintained boat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The interior has been slightly renovated. New cushions. The galley has been updated. A new faucet is installed \u2014 looks nice. New stove with oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sails look great: a mainsail with a lazy bag and genoa on a furling. All the lines are out in the cockpit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a spray hood. The boom traveler is made so that you can install a bimini. In general, it\u2019s clear that the boat is in the hands of an experienced sailor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The low price is due to the fact that the engine is not running. It\u2019s actually not that scary. You can find an inexpensive refurbished engine or buy a new one (approx cost 7-10K). To be honest, I even see advantages in this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s do the math. The market price for such a Maxi 95 starts from 13-15K. It will be a more \u00abtired\u00bb boat with an old engine. Most likely without equipment. People buy such a boat and, most likely, will sail on it and constantly fix the engine, which will often break down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here you can also buy a good boat with autopilot and put a brand-new engine on it, and it will cost less than 10K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
