Bayfield 29 - Classic Canadian Long Keel Boat with Seaworthy Character The Bayfield 29 is a classic sailboat, designed by renowned designer Ted Gozzard and built by Bayfield Boat Yard in Canada. This model, originating from 1981, is a long keel boat with a distinctive design that stands out for its robust construction and stable sailing characteristics. Approximately 350 units of this type have been built, making it a recognizable and valued presence among enthusiasts of traditional sailboats. Dimensions and Construction With a length overall (LOA) of 8.84 meters, a beam of 3.11 meters, and a draft of 1.10 meters, the Bayfield 29 is suitable for both open water and shallower sailing areas such as the Wadden Sea. The shallow draft allows access to challenging spots like Schiermonnikoog and Ameland. The hull is made of polyester, contributing to the ship's durability. The hull shape is a stepped V, enhancing stability and comfort while sailing. The air draft is approximately 12 meters, making the boat suitable for most bridges on inland waters. Inside, there is a headroom of 1.80 meters, providing a comfortable living space on board. Interior and Accommodation The Bayfield 29 offers sleeping space for four fixed and two additional persons, distributed among a forward cabin, salon, and possibly a convertible dinette. The interior features a dining area, mattresses, a manual toilet, and a separate wet room with a shower. The galley is equipped with a stove and a refrigerator, making onboard stays suitable for multi-day trips. The water tank has a capacity of 90 liters. The toilet discharge goes directly into the open water, a common feature in older sailboats. Heating is not present on board. Sail and Deck Equipment The sail plan includes a mainsail, spinnaker, and gennaker, making the boat suitable for various wind conditions. The mast is aluminum, and there is one mast onboard. The sail condition is described as functional. Steering is done via a tiller in the open cockpit. The rudder is single. On deck, the boat features a teak deck, bimini, lifelines, fenders, and lines. There is one anchor attached with a line. The cockpit is self-draining, enhancing safety in rough conditions. Engine and Technical Installation The Bayfield 29 is equipped with a Yanmar 2GM diesel engine with a power of 15 hp. The engine is electrically started and has approximately 1200 running hours. The current operation status of the engine is unknown. The fuel tank has a capacity of 30 liters. Onboard, there are gauges such as a fuel tank gauge, oil pressure gauge, and temperature gauge. The electrical installation onboard needs to be reconnected. Navigation equipment includes a compass, log/speedometer, and wind gauge. A bow thruster is not present. Berth and Condition The boat is currently on land at a shipyard in Wolvega, with the mast lowered. The boat has not been in use for some time and is stored dry. The condition of the boat is described as fair. There are no signs of osmosis detected. The boat is not registered, but VAT has been paid. Suitability and Sailing Area The Bayfield 29 is designed for both inland and coastal waters.
