Waarschip 28 LD now in the online auction. Everyone can bid until May 18, 2026. Waarschip 28 LD (1998) – sporty wooden sailboat with racing DNA and comfortable weekend layout This Waarschip 28 LD from 1998 is a charismatic, sporty sailboat from the renowned Waarschip shipyard, designed by Kremer. With a length of 8.95 meters and a beam of 3.05 meters, this model offers an attractive combination of speed, directional stability, and practical living space. The multi-chine hull concept and the relatively deep draft of 1.85 meters make the boat appealing to sailors who enjoy sailing close to the wind and value immediate steering response. At the same time, it is a vessel that allows you to comfortably spend a weekend with family or friends, thanks to five fixed berths and an interior headroom of approximately 1.85 meters. The boat has been used on lakes for day trips, recreational sailing, and sporty sailing. The owner describes it as competitive in races, with notable achievements such as winning the Schuttevaerrace (2011). This aligns with the character of the Waarschip 28 LD: a fast sailor that encourages active trimming but also provides enough amenities for longer stays on board. Waarschip 28 LD now in the online auction. Everyone can bid until May 18, 2026. Hull, construction, and appearance: classic wood with modern lines The vessel is constructed in wood, giving it a warm, classic appearance and a unique "feel" on the water. Wooden construction appeals to enthusiasts who value craftsmanship and a lively vessel. The multi-chine hull contributes to an efficient underwater profile and a pleasant compromise between stability and speed. With an air draft of approximately 13.40 meters, this sailboat feels at home on open water and expansive lakes, where mast lowering restrictions are less common. The boat was last out of the water in 2024 and received an antifouling treatment in the same year. The overall condition is described as fair. There is a known issue: wood rot on the Leipzig port side. For a buyer who is handy or enjoys collaborating with a shipyard, this is a specific point to consider in planning and pricing, while the core of the vessel remains focused on sailing. Sailing characteristics: close-hauled and fast under spinnaker Searching for "Waarschip 28 LD sailing characteristics" often leads to terms like sporty, fast, and close-hauled. This particular model fits that description. The 1.85-meter draft helps maintain height and provides grip in the water, especially noticeable on close-hauled courses. Also, under spinnaker, this type is known for its speed and stability; according to the owner, the boat rarely loses control, instilling confidence during faster legs and changing winds. Steering is done with a tiller from the cockpit, a feature many sailors appreciate for its direct connection to the rudder and precise feedback. This makes the Waarschip 28 LD appealing to those who enjoy actively steering, trimming, and maximizing the sail plan, as well as for relaxed cruises where light, responsive steering enhances the sailing experience. Rigging and sail wardrobe: complete and focused on versatility The aluminum mast and sail plan including mainsail, jib, genoa, and storm jib provide flexibility for various conditions. With six sails on board, there is room to adjust for balance and power, from light winds to stronger breezes. The condition of the sails is described as good, which is relevant for buyers as sails can be a significant expense for a sporty sailboat. Propulsion and motoring: Volvo inboard with saildrive For harbor maneuvers and windless passages, the boat is equipped with a Volvo MB 2020 inboard diesel engine with saildrive, built in 1998. The engine starts electrically and has approximately 600 running hours, indicating a focus on sailing for a vessel of this age. The reported consumption of about 1.5 liters per hour aligns with efficient motor cruising. The diesel tank has a capacity of 25 liters, and the cruising speed is around 6 km/h with a maximum of approximately 7.2 km/h, sufficient for swift movement on inland waters and safe entry and exit from harbors. Instruments such as oil pressure gauge, temperature gauge, and tachometer support monitoring while motoring, beneficial for both novice and experienced skippers. Comfort and layout: weekend-ready with shower and practical amenities Inside, the Waarschip 28 LD offers a layout tailored for short vacations and weekend trips. With five fixed berths, there is space for a family or a mix of adults and children. Onboard, you will find mattresses, a stove, and a shower, allowing you not to rely solely on shore facilities. The 100-liter water tank is suitable for multi-day use, especially when water consumption is managed consciously. The manual toilet is a common, practical solution in this class. Navigation, electrical, and equipment: ready for cruises and club races In terms of navigation and electronics, the boat is equipped with a wind meter, depth sounder, and log, supplemented by an autopilot, compass, and VHF radio. This package supports both leisurely cruising and sporty sailing, where course information and wind data assist with trimming and tactics. The electrical system operates on 12V and includes shore power, alternator, and battery charger. There are two batteries onboard, useful for basic consumption and navigation equipment use. Exterior equipment such as pulpit and pushpit, lifelines, fenders, and lines contribute to safety and convenience in the harbor. The swim platform makes it appealing to anchor and swim on warm days. For safety, there is a lifebuoy and a manual bilge pump onboard. There is one anchor with line attachment. For whom is this Waarschip
