82' Custom Built Steel Ketch 1898

Classic old-timer sailboat built of steel (riveted steel hull) in 1898 in Hamburg Germany. It has been in the current's owners possession since the late 1960‘s and the couple is finally ready to retire after almost 50 years of sailing the Baltic and North Sea, Mediterranean and Caribbean. The boat is excellently suited for sailing around the world (can be sailed with a 2-man crew), for conducting charter trips, as well as for day trips or simply for use as a family boat. In excellent tended condition. An extremely robust, oceangoing vessel which has crossed the Atlantic numerous times. The boat is currently dry-docked in Sardinia, Italy and can be inspected this summer at any time.
