Why we are selling our boat: The boat is being sold because our daughter has developed seasickness over the past few years. We are therefore looking for a slightly heavier boat, hoping it will alleviate the situation somewhat. When we purchased the boat back in 2016, it had two toilets. We chose to remove one toilet and install a new toilet and holding tank, so we now only have one toilet. We also replaced the skylights (4 years ago) and installed a new lazy bag (4 years ago). The sails (genoa and Elvstrøm mainsail with continuous sail battens) are from 2012; we do not know the age of the others, but they have been regularly serviced and maintained. There are a total of 3 mainsails (2 Elvstrøm and 1 Neil Pryde), 1 storm jib (Elvstrøm), and 2 genoas (1 North Sails and 1 Elvstrøm), along with 1 spinnaker included. The rigging has been professionally updated, including a new joint horn, fittings, and mast reinforcement. We have also installed a new 20kg Rocna Vulcan anchor and an electric windlass. All through-hull fittings have been replaced at the local yard at the time with truedesign. The hull was completely renovated in 2017 at the boatyard, primed (consisting of 4 layers of gelshield and 2 layers of tar2), and antifouled with VC 17. We have now switched to VC Offshore. You may notice a small damage on the hull. This was something that the yard discovered by chance, so we had it repaired immediately. The color on the hull is not an exact match, so you can still see where the damage was. The electrical panel has been reviewed and updated about 5 years ago. The propeller shaft, stern tube, and engine mounts have been replaced (original Volvo Penta). The engine has also been maintained regularly, meaning that oil, filters, and impeller have been changed consistently. The oil cooler was replaced in 2020. We have installed a 6-person Viking liferaft, which is due for servicing this year. Another addition is an Aries wind vane, which we have greatly appreciated. We installed solar panels (4 years ago) on the sprayhood, allowing us to remove or attach them using Velcro. All last summer during our trip to Sweden, we did not need shore power. The solar panels managed our consumption well, which included refrigerator use, lights, water, and various small devices for charging. The chart plotter is old; last year we transitioned to using a tablet instead. We have owned the boat for about 10 years throughout our daughter's upbringing; thus, the cushions show some wear from that time. They need new covers. We are experiencing some moisture in the helm, which is normal for this type of boat. It has been monitored regularly and assessed by our yard as quite benign as long as we keep an eye on it. Invoices for various visits to the boatyard can be sent upon request. All original parts from toilets, windows etc., are still available and can easily be included. Summary of equipment list: - Depth sounder - Log - Older chart plotter (Garmin 720s) - AIS (transmitter and receiver) - Aries wind vane - Electric autopilot for wind vane - Hydraulic autopilot (not connected and unreliable) - Solar panels (110W; we haven't used shore power in summer since installing these) - 1000W Vetus windlass with 50m of 8mm chain - 20kg Rocna Vulcan anchor - Cockpit tent - Ray 63 VHF radio - Liferaft (due for servicing in May 2026) - Victron charger - 4 USB ports - Eberspächer oil heater Please feel free to contact us; we are ready for a viewing. The boat is currently in the water, so we are also available for a short test sail if desired.
