Kievit 27 now in the online auction. Everyone can bid until April 20, 2026. Kievit 27 (1987) - classic polyester cruising yacht with fin keel, 4 fixed berths, and diesel engine The Kievit 27 from 1987 is a compact and sturdy cruising yacht that feels at home on inland waters and sheltered coastal areas, with a design that focuses on comfort and predictable sailing behavior. With a length of 8.35 meters, a beam of 2.70 meters, and a draft of 1.45 meters, this vessel offers a pleasant balance between stability, space, and accessibility. The polyester S-shaped hull gives the boat a classic look and a sailing character that many sailors appreciate: calm, course-stable, and without nervous reactions. This makes the Kievit 27 interesting for beginners, as well as for sailors looking for a relaxed cruising yacht for weekends away, holidays, or solo sailing. Kievit 27 now in the online auction. Everyone can bid until April 20, 2026. Hull, keel, and sailing characteristics: course-stable and comfortable cruising yacht This Kievit 27 is equipped with a fin keel, contributing to a stable position in the water and a pleasant feeling at the helm. Steering is done with a tiller from the cockpit, providing direct contact with the boat and making sailing intuitive. On broader courses, the boat maintains a nice heading and retains speed neatly. Close-hauled, it sails reasonably well, although the character is more oriented towards cruising than racing; do not expect extremely high windward performance like modern, lightweight designs, but rather a steady progress with a relaxed trim. In gusts, the boat reacts gradually and predictably. The heel builds up slowly and decreases in a controlled manner, enhancing a comfortable sailing experience for crew and passengers. In waves, the hull cuts through the water well; at this length and hull shape, some pounding may occur at times, but the behavior remains manageable and fitting for a classic 27-foot sailing yacht. Rigging and sail plan: straightforward and suitable for relaxed sailing The aluminum mast carries a simple and practical sail plan with mainsail and jib. With two sails, the operation remains clear, which is convenient for solo sailors or couples who prefer to sail without many maneuvers. The condition of the sails is described as fair; a cleaning for sails and sheets is advisable to freshen up the whole system and make it work smoothly again. For buyers who like to optimize step by step, this offers a clear and manageable first improvement without turning the boat into a complex project right away. Propulsion and maneuvering: Solé diesel inboard engine and bow thruster For harbor maneuvers and motoring, the boat is equipped with a Solé 14 mini inboard diesel engine of 13 hp with manual start. This engine is operational and suits the size and purpose of the Kievit 27 well: cruising calmly, docking, and maneuvering controlled on inland waters. Onboard, there are gauges such as a fuel tank gauge, oil pressure gauge, and temperature gauge, providing basic information readily available while sailing. Additionally, a bow thruster is present, which can noticeably simplify turning and docking in tight berths or in crosswinds. Interior and comfort: headroom, fixed berths, and practical amenities Inside, the Kievit 27 offers a headroom of approximately 1.78 meters, a useful size for this length class, making the stay on board more comfortable during longer weekends. There are four fixed berths, making the boat suitable for a family or for two people who prefer extra space. The accommodation is furnished with a dining area and mattresses; the woodwork in the interior is considered neat, while the cushions could use some attention to make everything to your liking again. For longer stays, practical amenities are available, including a 100-liter water tank and a 40-liter holding tank. The manual toilet does not discharge directly into open water, aligning with use on many inland waters. For cooler days, there is a heater on board, extending the sailing season and keeping it pleasant even in the evenings. Deck and cockpit equipment: teak, cockpit table, and swim ladder Outside, the boat is equipped with a teak deck, a cockpit table, and exterior cushions, making the cockpit a pleasant spot for lunch at anchor or a long evening in the harbor. Fenders and lines are present, as well as a swim ladder for comfortable swimming or easy boarding. The sprayhood and cover are due for replacement. Electrical installation, navigation, and safety: basic equipment for inland waters The electrical installation includes shore power and a battery charger, with one battery on board. For navigation, a depth sounder and compass are available, suitable for use on lakes, ponds, and canals. In terms of safety, there is a lifebuoy on board. The boat was last out of the water for maintenance in 2025, and there are no reports of osmosis, which is an important consideration for a polyester sailboat. This Kievit 27 is thus an attractive classic cruising yacht for those seeking a course-stable, comfortable, and straightforward sailboat with practical amenities, a diesel inboard engine, and extra maneuvering assistance thanks to the bow thruster. Ideal for relaxed trips, weekend getaways, and holidays on inland waters, with room to refresh the boat to your taste in several aspects.
