10 Best Used Cruising Sailboats

• By John Kretschmer
• Updated: May 24, 2024

The appeal of offshore voyaging is difficult to explain to land people who can’t imagine life without basic human rights like copious quantities of hot water and unlimited data. It can even be challenging to explain to fellow sailors who think the notion of spending days or weeks at sea is a form of water­boarding, some kind of self-inflicted torture.

But for those of us who understand, who relish intimacy with the untamed wilderness that is the ocean and embrace self-­reliance and individual expression while accepting the ­dispassionate whims of Neptune, this is the good life.

There are two essential truths about this life: One, money does not matter. Cruising budgets and lifestyles reflect bank accounts with variously positioned commas; it’s the passages and landfalls that add up, not your investment portfolio. And two, a good bluewater sailboat — not necessarily an expensive boat, but a well-­designed, solidly built, imminently seaworthy boat that is only limited by your moxie and imagination — is the key to successful bluewater passagemaking.

– LEARN THE NAVIGATION RULES – Know the “Rules of the Road” that govern all boat traffic. Be courteous and never assume other boaters can see you. Safety Tip Provided by the U.S. Coast Guard

So, to that second point, I’ve compiled a list of interesting and affordable cruising sailboats for serious voyaging. A list of 10 sailboats for any purpose, much less world cruising, is sure to evoke outrage from strong-minded sailors, who by nature tend to be a bit opinionated. Stand by before hurling insults my way, and let me explain. I have decided to stay away from the sailboats we know by heart, the iconic old boats that usually populate a list like this: the Westsail 32, Tayana 37, Shannon 38 and Valiant 40 (the last of which, with a bit of searching, can still be found at or just below $100,000).

My list of some of the best liveaboard sailboats is eclectic and includes a mix of well-known and obscure manufacturers, but all the boats are linked in three ways: All are top-quality vessels capable of crossing oceans. They’re affordable, although in a few cases you have to look for older models in less-than-stellar condition to stay below $100,000. Indeed, in some ways, this list of used sailboats is a function of age; most of the boats were priced at more than $100,000 when new but have dipped below our self-imposed threshold in middle age. And finally, they’re all boats that I have encountered in the past few years in far-flung cruising destinations .

Island Packet 35

Love them or loathe them, Island Packets are everywhere. To some, the beamy, full-keel, high-freeboard hull designs seem quaint, to put it charitably. To others, the robust construction standards, roomy interiors and overall user-friendliness make them the ideal cruising boat. More than most, sailing vessels are compromises, and Bob Johnson and his crew at Island Packet were brilliant in prioritizing the needs of sailors. The IP 35 was introduced in 1988 and features a huge cockpit, an easy-to-handle cutter rig with a jib boom, and a clever, comfortable interior with the volume of many 40-footers. It might not be the fastest boat upwind, but the long waterline translates to good performance off the breeze, meaning the IP 35 finds its stride in the trade winds. In all, 188 boats were built before production stopped in 1994.

Don’t confuse the IP 35 with the IP 350, which was launched in 1997 and included a stern swim step. You won’t find a 350 for less than $100,000, but you will have a choice among 35s, especially those built before 1990. With two nice staterooms, the 35 is ideal for family cruising. I know of a couple of 35s that have completed the classic Atlantic Circle passage. It’s perfect for a sabbatical cruise because it holds its value and there’s a ready market when it comes time to sell.

Prout Snowgoose 37

There’s no room for discussion: Catamarans are crossing oceans, and many sailors are choosing cats for world cruising. My last visits to the Azores and Canary Islands, the classic Atlantic waypoints, proved the point. I’m not much of a statistician, but by my count, at least a quarter and maybe a third of the boats I saw were catamarans. There would be more on this list, but they are just too expensive. Finding a quality catamaran for less than $100,000 is tough. One boat to consider is the classic workhorse multihull, the Prout Snowgoose 37.

When the Snowgoose 37 was launched in 1983, English builder Prout & Sons had already been in business for nearly 50 years. The 37 was an updated version of the Snowgoose 35, one of the most successful cruising cats ever. In 1986, the 37 was updated again; the Snowgoose Elite model included more beam and interior upgrades. These models are challenging to find for under $100,000, but it’s possible. A quick glance at yachtworld.com shows several of both models available for less than $100,000. Again, the strong dollar makes European boats an excellent value.

The Snowgoose 37 is not sexy like go-fast cats, and not roomy like modern cruising cats. It is, however, seaworthy. Of the 500 built, many have circumnavigated. Older boats have solid fiberglass hulls, and more recent models are solid glass from the waterline down and cored above. The cockpit is rather compact by catamaran standards, and the bridgedeck is solid (no tramp). Many 37s and all Elites were rigged with staysails, a big plus in heavy weather. The masthead-­rigged Snowgoose 37 can be sailed like a monohull offshore, and it’s quite nice not having a huge, roachy mainsail to wrestle with in a storm. With a 15-foot-3-inch beam for the 37 and a 16-foot-3-inch beam for the Elite, it’s easy to find affordable dockage and yards for haulouts. Most boats have three double cabins, making the Snowgoose 37 an ideal family cruiser.

The Corbin 39 is not as well known as it should be. It’s a capable bluewater sailboat cruiser with many impressive voyages logged. My Quetzal spent several weeks moored alongside a handsome 39 in Corfu that had sailed around the world, and I also spent a winter in Malta in the same boatyard as another 39 that had recently crossed the Atlantic. A canoe-stern, flush-deck pilothouse cutter, the 39 was offered with either an aft or center cockpit. Designed by Michael Dufour and constructed by Corbin les Bateaux in Canada, hull number one was launched in 1977. Built in various locations in Quebec, 129 boats were launched before a fire destroyed the deck tooling in 1982. A new deck with a larger cockpit was designed, and 70 more boats were laid up before production ceased in 1990.

The rub on the Corbin 39 is that the majority of boats were sold as kits with owner-­finished interiors. Kits varied from just hull-and-deck to “sailaway,” with everything fitted except the interior. Only 15 boats were finished at the factory. Not surprisingly, the interior quality is unpredictable, from rough-hewn lumberyard specials to beautifully handcrafted gems finished by marine professionals. The difference is reflected in the price. A nicely finished, well-equipped model from the mid-’80s typically sells for between $60,000 and $80,000.

The hull shape features a long fin keel and skeg-mounted rudder. The hulls are heavily laid up and include Airex coring. Early decks were plywood-cored, but most boats have Airex in the deck as well. Ballast is 9,000 pounds of internal lead, translating to a 40 percent ballast-to-displacement ratio. The wide flush deck is spacious, and the sleek pilothouse usually includes inside steering. Massive double anchor rollers are incorporated into the bowsprit in later models. Most boats include a double-­spreader spar, and almost all were set up as cutters. There’s plenty of freeboard, which becomes obvious below. While interior arrangements vary considerably, there’s a lot of room to work with. I prefer the post-1982 aft-cockpit 39s; they’re generally of a higher quality than earlier boats.

– CARRY A BEACON – Satellite beacons such as EPIRBs or PLBs allow boaters to transmit distress signals and their exact coordinates from anywhere on the planet, no cell service required. It may be the best $400 you ever spend. Safety Tip Provided by the U.S. Coast Guard

Cabo Rico 38

“The Cabo Rico 38 hull shape is the one in which everything came together best,” wrote Bill Crealock in his design notes. He might have changed his mind later in life, considering that the Cabo Rico was introduced in 1977 and he designed many boats after that, but few will dispute that this 38-foot cutter, built in Costa Rica, is flat-out beautiful. From the clipper bow to the sweet sheer to the abundance of honey-colored teak, the Cabo Rico 38 is a boat to inspire the most practical among us to quit their job, buy this vessel, and head for the South Pacific.

Not surprisingly, many people have done just that. Cabo Rico built 200 full-keeled 38s, with most of the production occurring in the 1980s. There’s always a selection of boats for sale for less than $100,000. Cabo Rico was an outlier among manufacturers of the time, building serious cruising boats in Central America instead of Taiwan, but quality control was always excellent. The full keel is slightly cutaway, and the rudder is attached to the trailing edge. The prop is in an aperture and totally protected, but not well suited to backing into a slip. Full-keel boats may make some younger sailors cringe, but the CR 38 has a very soft ride in rough seas and heaves to effectively. It also has a solid fiberglass hull with a layer of balsa for insulation. Sometimes it’s noted that the hull is balsa-cored, but it’s not. After about hull number 40, lead was used instead of iron for internal ballast. The deck is balsa-cored, however, and there’s a substantial bulwark. Items to be wary of are the teak decks (most 38s have them) and the fittings supporting the bobstay.

A true cutter rig, the 38 has just under 1,000 square feet of working sail area and performs better than most people suspect. The staysail was originally set on a boom that cluttered the foredeck and limited sail shape. Many boats have been converted with furling staysails sans the boom — a nice upgrade. When the wind pipes up, the 38 tracks nicely with a reefed main and staysail. I encounter 38s all over the Caribbean. They’re easy to spot; they’re the beautiful boats in the anchorage.

Tayana Vancouver 42

Ta Yang, builder of Tayana sailboats, has been building capable cruising boats forever, it seems. The Robert Harris-designed Tayana Vancouver 42 has been a mainstay of the serious cruising fleet since the day it was launched in 1979, and is still in demand today. The company built 200 boats, mostly in the ’80s and early ’90s, although a few V42s were built into the 2000s. With a bit of digging and some haggling, you can find boats for less than $100,000, but they’re likely to be older models. As of this writing, yachtworld.com has eight V42s listed, with three asking less than $100,000.

I’ve encountered the V42 all over the world, and in my yacht-delivery days, I had the pleasure of delivering a couple of 42s up the East Coast and down to the Caribbean. The double-ended hull shape with a fin-skeg underbody is stiff and seaworthy, if not wickedly fast. Considering the rugged construction, with a solid fiberglass hull and balsa-cored deck, nobody has ever accused Ta Yang of going light on its boats. Ballast is internal iron, a massive single casting that weighs in at 11,800 pounds. Ta Yang has evolved as a builder, and later models included upgrades like vinylester resin and larger Yanmar diesels.

A true cutter, the V42 has a double-spreader rig and is heavily stayed. The seagoing deck is cambered to shed water. Teak decks, with all their virtues and vices, were common; I’d look for a boat that’s been de-teaked. Like the Corbin 39, the V42 came with either a center or aft cockpit, although most boats were aft-cockpit models. The aft cockpit is deep and secure, if a bit tight due to volume sacrificed by the canoe stern. The center cockpit is cramped but offers excellent visibility. The interior is lovely, with exquisite Taiwanese joinery. Although interior arrangements vary because Ta Yang encouraged owner input, across the board, this is a friendly boat for living aboard. The aft-cockpit model includes one head and a traditional layout with excellent light and ventilation. The center-­cockpit model features a large owner’s stateroom aft.

Wauquiez Pretorien 35

The Pretorien 35 does not pay homage to tradition. The Euro-style low-slung wedge deck and flattish lines were thoroughly modern when the Pretorien was launched in 1979. Sure, there are IOR influences in this well-proven Holman & Pye design, including a slightly pinched stern, cramped cockpit, and a high-aspect, short-boom mainsail that results in a large fore­triangle. But a small main is easy to handle offshore, especially in squally conditions, and a large poled-out furling genoa provides a low-stress way to cross oceans. The test of a design is revealed long after the launch, and the Pretorien has aged brilliantly. It’s often mistaken for a Swan or Baltic. Famed voyager and author Hal Roth chose a Pretorien for his last boat.

Below the water, which is what really matters at sea, the Pretorien pushes the right buttons for serious sailing. A fine entry provides enough of a forefoot to prevent pounding in lumpy conditions, and as on the Valiant 40, the fin keel incorporates a stub to which the external ballast is fastened. The rudder is mounted well aft for excellent steering control, especially on a deep reach, and is tucked behind a narrow but full-length skeg. The Pretorien displaces 13,000 pounds, of which 6,000 pounds is ballast, translating to a stiff, seakindly boat.

The construction is superb. The solid fiberglass hull includes longitudinal stringers that stiffen the panels and encapsulate the bulkheads. Tabbing and fiberglass work is first-rate throughout. Wauquiez was one of the first builders to use solid laminate beneath high-load deck fittings. The side decks are wide and, with the chainplates well inboard, easy to navigate. The interior arrangement is conventional, but ample beam amidships helps create a surprisingly spacious feel below.

There were 212 Pretoriens built during a seven-year production run, so there’s usually a good selection of boats on the used market. Today’s strong dollar makes European Pretoriens an excellent value.

Gulfstar 44

Gulfstar had a terrible reputation in the early ’70s: It was infamous for producing wide-body motorsailers with tiny rigs and chintzy Formica interiors. Company founder Vince Lazzara was adept at reading market trends and upped his game in the late ’70s and ’80s. Lazzara, who also founded Columbia Yachts, was a veteran of the production-­sailboat wars and realized that buyers were demanding high-quality boats that sailed well. The Gulfstar 44 was launched in 1978, and 105 were sold before the company started producing the Hirsh 45 in 1985.

Some mistake the G44 for a Bristol, and it has a similar profile, right down to the teak toerail and raked cabin trunk. A sleek center-­cockpit design, the hull shape features a 5-foot-6-inch fin keel, a skeg-hung rudder and moderate proportions. I know the boat well, having delivered one from Bermuda to Annapolis and another from Fort Lauderdale to Boston. It has a nice ride in lumpy seas and powers up when the big genoa is drawing on a reach. The construction is typical of the time, with solid fiberglass hulls and cored decks. Gulfstars were known to blister, and it’s likely that any 44 you find will have had an epoxy bottom job along the way — and if it hasn’t, it will need one. The keel-stepped spar has an air draft of 55 feet. Some owners have modified the sloop rig with a staysail. The cockpit is roomy, especially for a center-cockpit design, although there’s not much of a bridgedeck. All sail controls are led aft. Lazzara was an early proponent of this feature, and the boat is user-friendly overall.

The interior sells the boat. It’s nicely finished in teak, and the layout is made for living aboard. The aft cabin includes an enormous double berth with an en suite head and stall shower. The main saloon is spacious and well ventilated, although beware of the plastic opening portlights. If you are looking for a comfortable, well-built center-cockpit cruiser but can’t find one that you can afford, track down a Gulfstar 44; you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Any list of bluewater cruising sailboats must include a Robert Perry design. I could have easily put together nine Perry boats for this list. The Nordic 40 may surprise some, especially because 40 feet is an iconic length, bringing to mind such boats as the Valiant 40, Hinckley Bermuda 40, Bristol 40, Pacific Seacraft 40, Passport 40 and others. The trick is finding a 40-footer for less than $100,000. Nonetheless, the Nordic 40 and its larger sister ship, the 44, are among my favorite boats.

Based in Bellingham, Washington, Nordic produced world-class yachts during its brief production run in the 1980s. Only 40 Nordic 40s were launched between 1982 and 1987, but they’re worth seeking out on the used-boat market. The 40 features the classic double-ended Perry hull shape, with a fine entry, a deep and powerful fin keel, a skeg-mounted rudder positioned well aft, and a reverse transom. Freeboard is moderate and the sheer line is subtle, but to my eye, with its double-spreader rig and gently sloping deck line, the boat is poetry in the water.

The hull is solid fiberglass and the deck is balsa-cored, with solid laminates below loaded-up deck fittings. Original boats came with Navtec rod rigging and a hydraulic backstay, but many have been upgraded by now. Sail-control lines are led aft to the compact but functional T-shaped cockpit. The traveler is forward of the companionway, allowing for a cockpit dodger. The Nordic 40 is nimble in light to moderate breeze but can also stand up in a blow and heave to decently.

The interior is well suited to a cruising couple. It’s really a two-person boat, with a V-berth forward and large C-shaped galley aft, with plenty of counter space and a huge fridge. It includes the normal deft Perry touches — excellent sea berths, a separate stall shower and generous tankage. If you do find a Nordic 40 on the used market, be sure to take a hard look at the Westerbeke diesel and the V-drive transmission.

Pacific Seacraft 34

A handsome, nimble and capable double-ender by legendary designer Bill Crealock, the Pacific Seacraft 34 is well proven, with scores of ocean crossings in its wake.

After the boat was first launched as the Crealock 34 in 1979, Pacific Seacraft introduced a fifth model years later, a scaled-down version of the popular PS 37. Though expensive at the time, the 34 was another success story for one of America’s premier builders, and hundreds of boats were built in the company’s yard in Santa Ana, California. There is always a good selection of used boats available for less than $100,000. Another nice perk for used-boat buyers is that the 34 is back in production at the reincarnated Pacific Seacraft yard in Washington, North Carolina, providing an outlet for parts and advice. The company is now owned and operated by marine archaeologist Stephen Brodie and his father, Reid.

The 34 blends traditional values above the waterline with what was then a more modern underbody, with a long fin keel and skeg-hung rudder. A bit hefty at 13,500 pounds of displacement, the design otherwise is a study in moderation, and drawn with a keen eye toward providing a soft ride in a seaway and staying on good terms with Neptune in a blow.

The hull is solid fiberglass, and early decks were plywood-­cored before Pacific switched to end-grain balsa. The hull-to-deck joint incorporates a molded bulwark that offers added security when you’re moving about on deck, and a vertical surface for mounting stanchions.

Most 34s are cutter-rigged for versatility but carry moderate-­size genoas instead of high-cut yankees for more horsepower off the wind. Down below, the layout is traditional, but the 6-foot-4-inch headroom is a pleasant surprise. The Pacific Seacraft 34 is perfect for a cruising couple.

A visceral sailing experience

Sailing Catamarans: Sailing Catamarans make great cruising and bluewater boats.

Although the principles of sailing are the same for both catamarans and monohulls, there are some enormous advantages to safety and comfort for sailing catamarans.

One of the biggest developments over the last decade in the yachting arena has been the rise of the super catamaran: a multihull over 100 feet in length. The emergence of the super or mega catamaran is a relatively new event affiliated to the rise of the mega or super yacht, used to describe the huge growth in luxurious, large motor yachts on the French Riviera, Caribbean and Floridian Coast.

• Level sailing gives greater comfort and is less tiring
• The danger of falling overboard on a catamaran is considerably less than on a monohull
• It seems that you do the same activities whether you are at anchor, sailing, or motoring
• With a catamaran's level sailing, seasickness is reduced significantly
• A very valuable yet seldom talked about benefit is no rolling in an anchorage
• You don't have to put away everything every time you start sailing
• The draft on catamaran varies from 1 to 4 feet depending on whether it has mini-keels or dagger boards
• 360 degree view you have from most catamaran bridge decks
• Onboard a catamaran you remain informally connected to the world outside
• Galley Up layouts make provisioning, serving and cleaning just steps from the cockpit instead of many unsafe trips up and down the companionway; even when in the galley the cook is still part of the party.
• Because of the large wide deck areas there is a real feeling of space when outside
• When sailing with three or more people catamarans offer much more privacy as the two hulls, and the suites and heads within them, are far away from each other
• Catamarans are faster than monohulls and can avoid most serious weather and, at worst, place itself in a more favorable position to avoid the brunt of a storm
• Catamarans are superior to monohulls in terms of redundancy due to twin engines and twin rudders
• Better dinghy storage on davits between hulls as well as safer access to the dinghy and watersports

Power Catamarans: A recent development in recreational catamaran history and design has been the introduction of the power catamaran. The 'power' version incorporates the best features of a motor yacht and combines it with the characteristics of a multihull. The hulls below the waterline are typically planning hulls instead of their sailing counterparts that are standard displacement.

Usually, the power catamaran is devoid of any sailing apparatus as demonstrated by some of the top-selling models like the CUMBERLAND 47LC, Lagoon Power 43, Leopard 47PC and the Journey 47LRC to mention a few.

• They are very fuel efficient due to less wetted surface with the smaller sized engines to a comparable sized motor yacht and a wider stable platform.
• The incredible smooth ride and extended range
• Fishing is very comfortable and the ability to back down and maneuver to the fish is easier and faster
• They are much better than a monohull in a following sea, as a mono will plow into the front wave as they come down, then turn or pitch-pull when they plow into this next wave.
• Power cats are more buoyant in the bow making them more relaxing to drive in a following sea.
• Better maneuverability in harbor

Commercial vessels have utilized the power catamaran’s advantages for many years:

Since the 1970s, the length of catamarans increased from some 20 m to catamarans up to 115 m long. The High-speed Stena HSS is the world's largest fast ferry, traveling at a speed of 46 mph, although it is capable of doing over 70 mph. This is not new technology.

Second hand boats: buying an ex-charter yacht

• Will Bruton
• March 11, 2022

Will Bruton looks at the pros and cons of buying an ex-charter yacht, and speaks to a number of brokers for advice on what to look for

Yacht charter companies increasingly own new yachts for only a few years, selling off sooner to ensure they can offer the latest models to customers. Meanwhile an older, heavily used ex-charter yacht can be listed for sale at very low prices. Does either option represent a good buy for the private owner?

Visit any charter destination around the world and you’ll find yachts that have suffered the punishments of a life for hire. Scratches and bent stanchions are par for the course on something that is used for a week or two, then handed back. But unlike many yachts on the used market, charter boats are used regularly – meaning maintenance is regular. If you’re considering buying an ex-rental boat, understanding the charter business is key.

Business models

Stephen and Estelle Cockroft run catamaranguru.com , a community site for catamaran buyers that has evolved into a successful international brokerage, acting on behalf of both buyers and sellers. They have dealt extensively in ex-charter yachts over the past 20 years.

“Understanding the two major types of ownership programmes charter businesses run is important,” explains Stephen.

“They are quite different. ‘Guaranteed income’ programmes give the owner of the yacht a cheque at the end of the month at an agreed rate. On these yachts, owners have much less control over maintenance and the charter company oversees decisions.

On ‘shared revenue’ programmes, the income is not guaranteed to the owner, but they have more control over maintenance. “Standards vary a lot between charter operators, so it’s important to ask the question: ‘Who was motivated to keep this yacht maintained up until now?’” thinks Stephen.

Phasing out

‘Phase out’ is generally something offered by the larger charter companies and covers a period of time up to a year in which the yacht is made ready for sale to private owners at the end of its time on charter.

Neil Bingham is a broker for charter company Sail Ionian’s in-house brokerage SIP. “Quite a few of our yachts are sold on to charter clients. We like buyers to use the yacht, and most are sold while they are still in service on charter.

“They’re offered for sale during the last planned season – this allows the yacht to be checked while in use and to make sure all the equipment is working properly.”

Most Sail Ionian yachts are sold at around the five-year mark and Bingham is straightforward about what this means in terms of wear to the boat. “We see yachts that are five years old like a car with 60,000 miles on the clock. It’s still good and transitions into private use without major problems.

“Sails will still be in good condition, still retaining good shape, but upholstery and canvas work might need replacing. The dinghy might need replacing too. At the seven to eight year point an ex-charter yacht will start to need significant money spent on it and will naturally have more problems to fix.”

Managing expectations

Stephen Cockroft explains that, even when purchasing from a large operation, buyers shouldn’t expect to see comprehensive maintenance records. “Due to the nature of how charter yachts are used, not much time is spent keeping records. When there’s a problem between charters it’s fixed quickly so the boat can go back out.

“As a buyer of one of these yachts you can only rely on your own survey and, in our view, it must be truly independent. We have seen supposedly surveyed yachts with undeclared hurricane damage, evidence of hard grounding , and all manner of major undeclared faults.”

Because charter yachts are used regularly, mechanical maintenance standards can be surprisingly good on younger yachts, despite cosmetic damage. Photo: Denys Vinson

In the case of yachts with a phase out period being sold from a charter programme, there’s sometimes scope to survey the yacht while it’s still being chartered.

“A pre-phase out survey will help you negotiate what is fair wear and tear and what needs to be fixed before a final price is agreed. You can then stipulate that this work will be checked by another survey once it’s complete. This makes a boat that’s being phased out a much more attractive prospect and helps you manage your exposure to risk,” he explains.

Number crunching

Because the ex-charter yacht market is so varied, it attracts a broad range of customers looking for a second hand boat , explains Bingham. “Yachts do come on the market that have been chartered for 20 years or more. That I think attracts some [people] who want something for nothing, so we do see people that aren’t realistically going to buy from us. What we tend to sell, at the five-year point, is a clear prospect and the yacht still has a significant value in it.”

However, he points out that charter companies are not immune to the increased demand for new yachts that other sectors of the market are experiencing. “Due to our own supply of new yachts being restricted in 2022, we are also hanging onto some a bit longer than we used to.”

The business model charter companies use, not owning yachts but instead relying on external owners, largely dictates the ex-charter yacht market, explains Estelle Cockroft. “With returns up to 9% per annum, buying a yacht from new and putting it into charter is an appealing prospect, but the value of the investment returned at the end of the agreement varies a lot. If an owner from new gets 55% of the invested value back when the yacht is handed back to them, or it is sold onto the ex-charter market, I would say they are probably doing quite well.

“However, some charter companies are working on a 20-year agreement, which is unlikely to stack up for the original investor. This all influences ex-charter yacht sale prices, and you shouldn’t be paying over 60% of the new yacht value – although in these times where the market is starved of supply, plenty are!”

Good used condition

Pete Green, managing director of Halcyon Yacht Delivery, regularly moves ex-charter yachts, and sees significant variations in how well they have been looked after.

“Charter yachts are generally used week-in, week-out throughout the season. They are often skippered by relatively inexperienced sailors and are worked hard. This means that the risks of bumps or even groundings are much more likely than with a privately owned yacht. A full and thorough survey should highlight any potential structural or mechanical issues, which must then be rectified before the boat goes back to sea.

“Superficial damage will be obvious to the naked eye but do look out for scratches or dings and get a quote if you will want to rectify these. On the plus side, the fact that the yachts are well used means that the systems are usually all working well. Fuel issues like diesel bug are much more common with privately owned yachts that have been stood for longer periods.”

Halcyon skippers are used to dealing with faults on charter yachts they move and have encountered both basic maintenance neglect and more serious problems, Green reports: “Some charter yachts are only used by day. We have turned up to yachts to deliver and found that none of the navigation lights work!

“Moving a boat for a flotilla company in the Med, the toilet outflow was calcified and almost like a stone version of arterial sclerosis. Whacking the tube on the quay for half an hour did the job. This affects all the yachts in their fleet – replacing the tubes every couple of years could save a lot of hassle.

“There’s a greater chance a charter yacht may have been misused, for example grounded and taken a knock on the keel, and this not being reported when a client handed the yacht back.”

I bought an ex-charter yacht

Gabriele Fantini recently went through a handover from Sunsail of a 2015 Leopard 58 catamaran which he is now delivering to the Caribbean.

“The yacht I took over, at six years old, has been heavily used but you can also see it has been really well-maintained underneath. Component choices, like deck gear for example, will perhaps not be what you would specify as a private owner as they have a close eye on budget and it’s worth bearing in mind that the whole set-up has really been thought through for coastal sailing.

“Sunsail were extremely professional throughout the survey and handover, but they obviously don’t do more than they need to. One thing I was struck by, having skippered brand new catamarans, is that this process was perhaps easier than tackling a yard while a brand new yacht is under warranty. That can be a very protracted process.”

Buying A Pre-Owned Charter Boat

Why do we know this subject inside out?

• We have been owners of several charter boats, in several fleets. 
• Michel, Sailonline's owner, founded and presided for 10 years of the Moorings Owners' Group, the world largest charter yacht owners association. 
• Michel and his partners (all with equal unmatched experience on charter yachts) have implemented hundreds of transactions involving charter boat sales - new and pre-owned - all over the world.
• We operate independently of charter companies and so we are free to write and say anything we need/want to - good and bad - in order to help charter boat buyers. So we are totally unbiased.

________________________________

The general perception about the purchase of a used charter boat is this: a boat that has been on charter for 4 to 6 years and has seen anywhere from 80 to 100 charter weeks is bound to be a beat-up boat. Therefore it can never be a good idea to consider buying one. I very often heard  people state:" I will never buy a used charter boat, they must be trashed."

Well, let's face it, there is some arguable truth and logic about this reasoning. You can be sure that among the large number of second hand charter boats on the market, you will find some "lemons" or potential wrecks. However, this is proving less and less true. If you give this concept a more elaborate thought, you will understand why and how one can make an excellent purchase of a used charter boat. Smart boat buyers, familiar with the charter industry, know this very well.

Let's get into the details and explore this concept. But be forewarned: this can be a minefield. And by the way, the reward of finding this gem implies that you do some homework. You won't get something for nothing!

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly ... The shape of a used charter boat may vary tremendously. What are the factors?

It mainly   depends upon which charter company's fleet the boat belonged to. If the coveted boat was not managed by a company known for extensive maintenance program, chances are your survey may yield a horror story (by the way, a professional survey is an absolute MUST ). So before anything else, do not even think about boats which were not managed by rock-solid charter companies.

Also -again, the survey will tell you that- if the boat has been damaged (grounding, hurricane, T-boned, fire, etc.) it's a no-no. You see, those boats work a lot in their charter life, so there is higher probability that such incidents will happen to them rather than to a private boat. Always bear in mind that charter boats sail more in 4/5 years than most private boats do in their entire life !

Remember also that, unfortunately, bareboat charterers are not always careful or even competent sailors. Therefore, some boats do not have an easy life, to say the least. So, do not bother with dubious vessels. With the vast choice of boats on the market, you can afford to be very picky and go only for the cream of the crop.

Now, here is where the good news come into play for you, potential buyer: Most charter companies do a very good job at maintaining their fleet, and at phasing-out their boats. For those of you not too familiar with the industry, the  phase-out  is the maintenance procedure involved when a charter boat leaves the fleet and is handed over to her owner. Reputable charter companies perform a thorough checkup of the yacht, major and minor components, and systematically replace damaged items with new parts, or fix them in a very acceptable manner, so they are "serviceable". All after a professional and independent survey.

It is important to understand a concept used by charter companies to define the extent of the work they will perform on a phasing-out boat. It is called  "fair wear and tear" . It means that the owner cannot expect a back-to-new boat at the end of his 5 or 6-year contract. Therefore, although everything should be inspected and in working or serviceable condition, the boat will not receive new upholstery, new sails, a new engine, etc. unless they are unquestionably beyond fair wear and tear.

However, torn sails, non-working electronics, thick black smoke out of the exhaust, cracks in the rigging, large blisters in the hull, etc. are  not  fairly worn and torn items and  should be properly fixed . Get the idea?

More good news -this is important: Because you are buying a charter boat, you should inherit the complete charter equipment inventory that originally came with the boat. Plus some fixed improvement features especially ordered and designed by the charter company for better ease of use and reinforcement of failure-prone areas. This is worth a lot of money. Here is a sampling of items you would typically find. Those are usually optional and not included in a boat standard, private version (list will vary with charter company.)

• Oversized fuel/water tanks, oversized winches, self-stacking mainsail system, extra cleats, oversized alternator and batteries, high-capacity and redundant bilge pumps, electric windlass, auto-pilot, GPS - and chart plotter - shore power system, Bluetooth system, inverter, bimini, dodger, perhaps even a dinghy, tools, navigation tools, docking lines, fenders, safety equipment and gear, binoculars, bedding and linens,. etc., the list is very long.

Of course, not everything will be in tiptop shape. But, at phase-out, the same way the boat is overhauled, the original equipment is replaced if it is missing. So you should get an almost complete inventory.

What Are We Getting At? At this stage, you certainly understand where we're heading. Completely to the opposite spectrum of the general belief, there are quite a few great opportunities to find used charter boats that have been completely overhauled, inspected, surveyed, etc., sitting at the dock waiting for you -  IF  you do your homework and research properly.

And remember: The boat owner has been involved him/her/self in the phase-out process, and most probably, he/she's made quite sure it was done properly. Why? Because charter boat owners who do not roll over to a new boat with the same company, have 2 options at the end of their contract: either keep the boat for personal use or sell her. In either case, they want to get a boat in as good a condition as possible.

With a little luck, you can even find a boat with new sails, new engine, new rigging, etc!

TIP : Look preferably for boats that are sold by their owners, and not by charter companies. The latter are usually boats that have been taken in trade against a new boat; therefore, they have not necessarily been through the phase-out process described above. The Charter Company might have taken the boat in trade and simply put her up for sale. Not what you are looking for. 

How Do You Go About This? Know what you want, but be flexible.  Large charter companies usually concentrate their fleet on a few selected builders because it allows them to negotiate better prices on large buying volume, and on carefully selected models because it makes the maintenance easier. Therefore, you might not necessarily find the exact boat of your dreams. The good news is, you will buy a boat that has usually been proven and tested by the charter company.

Lastly, in terms of size, you might even afford a larger boat than you originally anticipated since you probably will get an excellent deal, price wise (see below).

Gather your data . Go to charter companies' web sites, to charter boat owners associations, Internet forums, boating web sites, etc. They are abundant and full of useful information, tips and classifieds.

Call yacht brokers : We, at Sailonline.com, are licensed and bonded yacht brokers in Ft. Lauderdale, and we have a huge experience in locating and transacting on pre-owned charter boats, worldwide. We set up and follow the entire process, from locating the right boat, to be present at the survey, to follow-up on all items that are listed by the surveyor and which need to be fixed, etc... Read why it is extremely important for a boat buyer to be   represented by a professional yacht broker  (for starters, it's free to the buyer , since the entire commission is paid by the seller only!)

Once you have located a few boats in your range, start your work as for any other boat. Of course, with the help of your broker, you will start with an extensive, professional and independent survey , both for the hull and the engine (they are not necessarily the same surveyors.)  View useful survey links .

As an alternative to buying a boat outright for your private use, you can (few buyers know this) buy an owner out of his existing contract with a charter company. How does it work? Some owners want (for various reasons) to sell their yacht before the end of the management contract. Let's say there are 2 years left on a management contract. You will buy the boat  and  the contract, and you will leave the boat in the managed fleet for the remaining 2 years. Note that this is not always possible, and remains at the discretion of the charter company. There are several benefits in this:

• You receive income on the charters, as defined in the contract, which will help covering the mortgage.
• You enjoy the use of the boat for the number of weeks (usually 8 to 12 a year) defined in the contract.
• You benefit from the boat overhaul at the phase-out at the end of the contract.

What price you should pay . Let's face it: selling a used boat, and especially a used charter boat is rarely an easy experience for the owner/seller. It can take months, sometimes more, to find a buyer and reach an agreement with him/her. I am an owner myself so it does not make me happy to say this, but it is a fact that in the used boat area, it is definitely a buyers' market.

Therefore, once you have found your boat and are satisfied with your survey and work, chances are the seller will consider  any  reasonable and 'bona fide' offer, especially if the boat has been on the market for a while, and if the seller feels the pressure of time and money, with all the expenses running every month. If you find yourself in such a buying position, you will definitely make a nice purchase. 

Buying A Pre-Owned Crewed Yacht Note : We are talking here about boats which were in a  managed  charter fleet, within a range of 45 to 60 ft. and with a permanent live aboard crew. This section is not about a privately managed crewed vessel, usually a larger unit, the management and the economics of which are completely different. If you are considering the purchase of a crewed boat, we encourage you to read the discussion on this site about Bareboats Vs. Crewed Boats  by clicking on this link.

But mainly, what you want to know is this: It's easy to understand that a live-aboard professional crew will attend the day-to-day maintenance with a much better efficiency than a land-based staff would episodically do on a bareboat. In effect, the crew  lives  on board, and therefore the boat becomes like their home. As a result, a good crew will (or should) maintain the boat as impeccably as they would maintain their own house. For technical upkeep, a good skipper will attend the repairs as needed, every day, or at least as soon as he gets off a charter week. Therefore, with the exception of parts on order, all maintenance items should always be under control. Similarly, all the boat log books will be updated on an ongoing basis.

Thanks to the crew's presence and handling of the boat during charters, the yacht will not be damaged, or mishandled by careless charterers. A comforting thought for the owner, since, unfortunately, bareboaters' sailing competence can often be questioned! For those reasons, a crewed boat will  usually  be in better shape than a same-age bareboat.

The Final Word Again, remember: This is a somewhat   difficult field. There are   lots of un-seaworthy boats out there. So be very careful, we cannot say it enough. However, if you respect the guidelines and do the homework, we do believe your experience of a charter boat purchase can be a very gratifying one. Those boats exist, they are around. Isn't this worth a little bit of work?

Should I Buy an Ex-Charter Catamaran?

• Post author By Hunter Frey
• Post date October 18, 2020
• No Comments on Should I Buy an Ex-Charter Catamaran?

I questioned 20 catamaran owners; if you were buying a used catamaran, would you consider a yacht from a charter company or only search privately owned vessels? 8 of the people said they wouldn’t consider ANY boat coming from the land of charters. Ten of the people said they would entertain the idea of buying a pre-owned charter boat and two already have purchased pre-owned charter cats and BOTH had good things to say about their experiences. Read on later in this article about specific experiences from one of the buyers.

Searching for your next catamaran can get over-whelming pretty quick. There a plenty of cat’s out there to choose from; between all the different designs, years and location of the boats, one can become bewildered with hopefully choosing the “right” catamaran. This doesn’t even include whether or not the boat was used privately, or for charter. Knowing if your potential catamaran was cared for like the daughter- you- never -had or abused like a hotel room during spring break, Mexico style, will be the difference between blissful nights on the water or living horrific nightmares. The key is to know what to look for, where to look for it and knowing when to hold, or fold. With some hard work and looking in every corner of the world, you just might be able to find your dream boat with some savings.

Tips on Questions to Ask Sellers

There are two types of used boat’s out there; the good and the bad, and have no fear, they’re every-where. When buying a used catamaran, there are two choices, either; a private owned or ex-chartered vessel. Of the two, does it matter which one you pick? There are plenty of gems and lemons in both markets; BUT the difference between having a smile or a puckered face is dependent upon you, the shopper. Why should someone buy a boat that has been retired from a charter groups’ fleet? Why not just search privately owned vessels and stay away from the head-aches that are surely to come, right? If comparing dollar to dollar, of the same boat, back to back, one privately owned, with 1,000 engine hours versus the charter fleet version with 4,000 hours, both maintained exactly the same and no major accidents, you will find the private owner version, much more expensive; on average, 30-40 percent higher in cost. Well, with a little bit of time, patience and dedicated searching, anyone out there can find their dream boat, at a very cool, affordable price. However, navigating these areas’ can be tricky and it is important to understand how to avoid the pitfalls of buying a used charter boat. To help you shop, we have included 5 tips below.

Tip 1: Engine hours are a good metric to suggest the amount of use. Typical high use after 5 year typical charter is 4,000 to 5,000. Low use would be 2,000 or less.

The reality is, charter boats tend to get beat up, period. Don’t be one of those buyers out there who got themselves an ex-charter fleet yacht, on whim, without proper knowledge. No one wants’ to own something they cannot sail. If you are a tight budget, looking for your first catamaran or simply trying to find the best buy out there, it is possible to find a sea-worthy, retired charter cat, out there in the world. Maybe the most important number is engine hours which will give you a numerical idea of the catamaran’s use like mileage on a car.

Tip 2: Which charter base? More remote charter bases means fewer charters. Or better or worse exposure to extreme weather conditions. You will find charter boats out of a location like St Vincent will have less wear and tear generally and lower hours than those coming from a location like the BVIs due to both fewer charter guests as well as less likelihood of tropical storms.

In the hunt for your new- used boat, you are going to come across many boats that are poorly maintained, beaten, abused and shouldn’t even be floating. This is true in all markets although some locations like the BVIs see much more use or some locations like the northern Caribbean or Greek Cyclades have worse storms. Knowing that a market is more prone to issues or has a certain risk factor like hurricanes can help generate important screening questions.

Worse condition from wear or damage is not always obvious. Most of the horror stories from owners, who have purchased previously used charter boats, are due them not doing their homework on the boat before buying. Once the new boat owner has taken charge of the vessel and sailed her some, that’s when the nightmare of problems, usually arise. Just because it “looks” okay, means it is kosher. Charter catamarans are big business; every company wants to have new boats in their fleet, so once a boat has served its contract term and is outdated, the charter company is very motivated to re-coup some of their investment. Catamarans in a charter fleet are typically used for an average of 5 years, pretty consistently, adding roughly more than 500% usage than the standard weekend sailor. So, with stats like that, it is very easy to understand why they have such a lower price tag. It is absolutely critical to be very thorough in your inspection of the vessel. It doesn’t take much, with 5 years of constant use, from people all over the world, some who know how to sail and some who don’t, to destroy a sailboat. If you don’t know absolutely all the in’s and out’s of the boat you are looking at, hire somehow who does. It will be worth every dollar spent.

Tip 3: What charter company?  Big one like Moorings or Dream Yachts or smaller one?  Does the charter company have a reputation good or bad?

All in all, the state of the boat is ultimately going to be determined by who chartered and managed the boat. Some companies have better reputations for keeping their fleets in tip top condition. Asking around other sailors if you zone in on a catamaran may help you determine the kind of history your catamaran may have. The two largest groups are Moorings and Dream Yacht Charters, but there are numerous other companies throughout the world.

You are not going to find too many extra bells and whistles on ex-charter cats. Once in a while, one goes on the market loaded down with all the goodies, but most the time, if it can be used elsewhere, it’s stripped off and headed who-knows-where. If you are looking for things such as: larger winches, bigger fuel\water tanks, self-furling\stacking and mainsail systems, additional cleats on board, bigger batteries, alternators, lines, safety gear and more, look at privately used boats. No one is going to put all of that on a charter cat and then re-sell it for cheap. Most of the above mentioned upgrades will only be found on privately used vessels.

When shopping around in the privately-used market, you will find that many of the boats have been taken care of a lot better. Many owners have re-fitted and modified their boats to accommodate them while out a sea So, if are lucky enough to find someone who was a blue-water sailor or really cared about their boat, you may come across things like; some “weak-points” are re-enforced or even built differently, plumbing is oversized, and furling sails are installed. Sometimes, even more bells and whistles are added; things like radar, GPS, dual VHF and more, for ease of operation and safer sailing.

Tip 4: Is there an exit survey available? Did the owner get one done and if so did he or she hold the charter company to fix everything?

The phase-out is the process of when the company is relinquishing the command of the vessel back to its owner or putting the boat on the market. In this process, the boat is surveyed by a professional, a full inspection & service of all equipment is done. Once fully serviced, cleaned and anything broken, misplaced or damaged, is fixed, the boat is cleared. The phase-out has to be satisfactorily completed and checked over by the owner of the vessel before it’s cleared for sale, but often lackadaisical owners will not hold the charter company accountable enough. It is important to see that the exit survey and that all items have been addressed. This area is a particularly important focus in questioning sellers.

TIP 5: When was the 5 year charter?  Economic recessions also mean less charter use.

Catamarans that were chartered during the Great Recession of the late 2000’s saw much less use than catamarans from the early 2000’s. Catamarans during the current era of Covid-19 restrictions will also see less use and come out of charter with less wear and tear than came and went without pandemic travel restrictions.

To buy a boat out of a charter fleet, the first step is to figure out how much the boat has depreciated. A catamaran that has been in service for 4-6 years will have depreciated around 40 percent, give or take, depending on MANY various factors. This is according to the National Yacht Broker’s Association. Finding an ex-charter fleet catamaran that has been maintained with care and has never been in an accident, will obviously hold value better than a boat that was wrecked and fixed. Regardless, the majority of catamarans will not depreciate to less than 60% of their replacement value. In simple terms, at some point, the up-keep of the boat begins to be more expensive than the boat itself.

Story of Buyer’s Experience

Both of the boat owners that I spoke with had good things to say about their experiences AFTER buying their pre-owned charter catamarans. Both the gentlemen I spoke with seemed to have a battle plan in place prior to starting their search in the charter sector. Knowing that there were more lemons out there than gems, they were willing to spend the time. Both owners were able to find bigger boats than they had expected to be able to afford. They both agree that finding boats being sold after their charter career are much more affordable, however requires much more discretion and time to find a good buy. They both also did comment that they felt like it was consuming all their time and energy to find the perfect buy out there in the pre-owned charter world. So, please keep this in mind when considering where you want to shop.

Sally Anne, a 58 leopard, is owned by a wonderful family on the Chesapeake Bay. Having interviewed her owner, Jim, a deeply tanned man from Maine, he has been sailing his entire life. Raising his family of four, they had sailed the world and spent almost every family vacation for 18 years sailing somewhere. He managed to pull this off, just like many others, on a twin cabin mono-hull sailboat. Space was tight, but they made it happen. Jim, a former single-hull sailor, decided to buy his first catamaran in 2010 when his first grand-child was born, having chartered a cat and liked their overall performance. With the family continuously getting even bigger with more grandkids and in-laws, Jim had outgrown his first cat. Jim wanted a bigger boat with 4 cabins. His ideal “dream boat” as he called it, “what I was looking for, must have had 4 cabins; providing plenty room for the family, their gear and maybe even a guest or two. “ He even goes on to explain how important extra room in the lounge and galley areas was. “The wife needed room to entertain, cook and store everything. Every single boat we looked at only had 3 cabins, It wasn’t enough.” he said, When his wife and him started looking for their next cat, Jim was thinking that a boat somewhere in the 42’-48’ range that would serve him well. Of all the boats that Jim looked at and they actually liked, passed muster, the surveyor gave them a report that they could work with; all were way above his price range. Whenever he found something he liked within his dollar amount, there was some key feature he was searching for that he still had to go without. Most of the time, it was the 4th cabin that was getting sacrificed to cut cost. “No way was I buying a boat without my 4th bunk room.” Jim states. He explained his hunt for the magnificent vessel that I’m sitting in the cockpit on.

Finally willing to entertain the idea of owning a pre-owned charter yacht, they broke down and went fleet shopping. “It took a lot longer to find this boat,” Jim tells me. “My wife and I flew to more than 5 different countries, looking for her.” Jim goes to tell me that while on vacation sailing the BVI, in the third year of looking for the right boat, he came across Sally Anne. Three years! Jim jumps back into saying that, “pretty much every cat we looked at was just too heavily used. Most were old, worn and just over-all, had a tired feeling to them,” he says, explaining his shopping experience. With a little bit of good favor on his side, the charter group where he decided to bareboat from had a broker on site and they had a select few boats for sale. “We had almost given up looking” Jim grins while telling me this. “Once my wife and I had laid our eyes’ on her,” holding his arms out, indicating the boat as a whole, “we knew we wanted her, as long as the surveyor didn’t shoot us down, It was the few boats that did not look like it had survived being adrift in a hurricane” Jim jokingly added.

Luckily, the boat came back with a good report. When it was all said and done, Jim and his wife were able to purchase a boat that was more than 10 feet longer that they ever dreamed they could own. They also got their 4th cabin and are at home on board their latest catamaran. Jim went on to tell me that not everything was perfect. They had to replace many different items on the boat; from new lines, to new heads’ and plumbing and even had to buy a new dinghy and motor. Despite having to dump a bunch of money into his ex-charter fleet boat, Jim told me that he was still able to afford the refit and getting the boat ready for him and his family. This show’s that with some hard work and time, it is possible to find a good buy out there, if you are willing to be patient.

Bottom Line

In the end, it boils down to the purchasing basics’ of anything that is a major buy; be it a car, catamaran or airplane. There are tons of variables that any soon-to-be buyer has to take into account. Make sure to use the resources available to you. Weigh your options. Ask pointed questions, be cynical, and work with a reputable surveyor. Study and research the boat, including its history and maintenance schedule. Look at the purchase as business transaction. When it is all said and over with, you might actually find the catamaran you dreamed of, and a price you won’t lose the wife or sleep over.

Let customers speak for us

I took advantage of the offcut sale to try out some of the more expensive ropes for my limited needs. I have not seen this kind of offer before, and I was able to find some lengths and qualities I would not normally worry about. Great service and sensible prices. Customer focused offers. I also plan to use some of the offcuts to improve my whipping and splicing. Does my son know he is being towed down the Thames with a rope that would be on the more expensive yachts with a breaking strength well over what we need, no. Does it matter - actually yes it does :)

Useful pack for spares box

We received the electric very quickly and it is of great quality. We will definitely use sailing chandlery again.

Great fast service from Sailing Chandlery. An expensive trainer delivered quickly and efficiently. The price, even discounted, doesn't warrant the outlay but the comms from Sailing Chandlery throughout the transaction to delivery were spot on. In the end, a comfortable pair of grey expensive trainers for use on my yacht; they look and feel good but trainers at half the price would probably have sufficed.

Exellent servic,wick delivery of goods .

The Allen Cam Cleats were as described. As usual Sailing Chandlery were very quick to send them and despite not paying for next day delivery they did arrive the next day.

Great product

ich rekonstruiere gerade den milit. Werdegang meines verstorbenen Großvaters (1. Kompanie Jägerbataillon-2 – Feldpost-Nr. 06550 B).

Durch WASt und ein paar persönlicher Notizen, liegt mir nun folgendes vor:

Ab 1943 Fronteinsatz bei Witebsk (heute Wizebsk) Orscha in Russland 04.10.1943 Gefangennahme bei Starabek / UdSSR lt. WASt. Im Brief vom Batl.Kdr. an die Familie steht wiederum "...bei Starabell vermisst". 04.10.1943 – 26.08.1946 Gefangenschaft Russland Cevepowitz 15.01.1945 – 28.07.1945 Lazarett Therepowitz bei Moskau wegen Gelbsucht

Leider finde ich nichts über die genannten drei fett-markierten Orte (evtl. auf einer Notiz falsch geschrieben oder wird heute anders geschrieben). Kann mir hier vielleicht jemand weiterhelfen wo die Orte liegen bzw. wie sie heute heißen und ob es in Cevepowitz ein Gefangenenlager gab bzw. die Lagernummer o. ä.

Bin für alle Hinweise dankbar!

Gruß aus Hessen! Dennis

Hallo Dennis,

bezüglich der KGL hat sich Eddy einmal die Mühe gemacht, hier im Forum ein sehr komplexes Paket einzustellen.

Falls noch nicht bekannt, findest du es hier .

Schau dir dort einmal die Karten und Berichte mit den Ortsbezeichnungen genau an. Falls du aber auch damit nicht weiterkommen solltest, melde dich noch einmal.

• March 27, 2009 at 5:08 AM

mit dem Shtetl-Seeker findet sich bei der Suche nach "Cerepowitz":

http://maps.google.com/maps?z=9&q=59.1333,37.9000+ (Cherepovets)

• March 27, 2009 at 8:21 AM

Hallo Dennis, ich war in Tscherepovitz, habe Kontakt dorthin u. ein Buch in kyrillischer Schrift bekommen, daß über die Gefangenen u. Lager im Vologda Oblast berichtet. Darin ist das Bild von Erich Hartmann, Lager 7437. Ist das Dein Großvater ? In Zürich lebt noch ein Veteran der in diesem Lager war. Gruß Hummel.

• March 27, 2009 at 1:29 PM

Es ist natürlich doof, wenn auf allen Dokumenten die Orte irgendwie anders geschrieben werden. Ich dachte die WASt sollte es zumindest richtig schreiben. Nun kommen irgendwie mehrere Orte zur Auswahl.

Im Anhang noch die handschriftliche Notiz meines Großvaters, ich lese das als Gefangenschaft... "Cevepowitz" oder?

Vielleicht könntet man aber doch den richtigen Ort von den beiden Dokumenten "Erfassungsbogen" (hier letzter Wohnort) und dem russischen Dokument (Entlassungsschein?) erkennen??? Dorte sollten die Orte doch richtig geschrieben sein.

Und wie kann es sein, dass die WASt "vermisst bei Starabek/UdSSR" schreibt und man den Ort einfach nicht findet?

Peter - danke für den Link, wenn ich die Orte entschlüsselt habe, finde ich hier bestimmt was.

@bernhard - was ist ein "Shtetl-Seeker"?? Wie kommst Du auf den Ort?

Hummel - ein Bild meines Großvaters...

PS. Hab den Erfassungsbogen etwas vergrößert angehängt, dass man es besser lesen kann. Vielleicht hilfts beim entschlüsseln, der Geburtsort lautet "Brandau"

• March 27, 2009 at 6:20 PM

a) die Schreibweise von Ortsnamen ist aus vielen Gründen nicht einheitlich. Ein Hauptgrund sind wohl die unterschiedlichen Transkriptionen der russischen Buchstaben

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transkription_ (Schreibung)

Umbenennungen, andere Namen der Orte auf Ukrainisch, Polnisch etc. und nicht zuletzt Lese- und Schreibfehler. Viele Orte gibt es heute auch gar nicht mehr.

b) Wie kam ich auf „Cerepowitz“? - "Tschernowitz" z. B. wird auch „Cernowitz“ (wie CSSR) geschrieben. Das würde evtl. auch die Schreibweise „T(sc)herepowitz“ erklären. - „r“ und „v“ sind leicht zu verwechseln. Vergleiche mal auf dem Bild „Lebenslauf“ das „r“ von „Fronteinsatz“ mit dem von Cerepowitz.

c) Aus all diesen Gründen sucht die sehr leistungsfähige Ortssuchmaschine Sthetlseeker

http://www.jewishgen.org/Communities/LocTown.asp

phonetisch. So werden auch ähnlich klingende und ähnlich geschriebene Namen angezeigt. Man kann auch einen Ort, z. B. „Moscow“ oder Koordinaten kleinerer Orte eingeben. Dann zeigt das Programm die Entfernung der gefundenen Orte von Moskau etc. Wenn man z. B. das „G“ bei „EMUG“ anklickt, sieht man die Lage des Ortes bei "Google Maps".

Man sollte zusätzlich noch mit dem Namen „spielen“, indem man einzelne Buchstaben durch ähnlich klingende oder leicht mit russischen Buchstaben zu verwechselnde (z. B. ist unser lateinisches „p“ das kyrillische „r“) austauscht.

• March 27, 2009 at 6:35 PM

hier findest Du das Lager 7437 Tscherpoviz (und andere) im Beitrag 33 der Liste, siehe auch den Hinweis von Hummel...

Datenbank zu Kriegsgefangenen: Kampfräume, Gefangenentransporte und Lager im Osten

Mal sehen ob ich den Ort der Gefangennahme finden kann.

Einstweilen Gruß, Arnold

• March 27, 2009 at 6:36 PM

Ok das klingt logisch. Es könnte also durchaus nicht Cevepowitz sondern Cerepowitz lauten auf seiner Notiz/Lebenslauf.

arnold Glaubst Du auch, dass es sich bei der Notiz meines Großvaters um das Lager Tscherpoviz handelt?? Das wäre echt super wenn Du den Ort der Gefangennahme finden würdest!!

• April 2, 2009 at 10:39 AM

Wollte eben den Antrag des Suchreferat Moskau wegschicken für ein Auskunft über Unterlagen usw. von meinem Großvater im russ. Archiv.

Ich dachte "naja, 30EUR kann man da mal investieren"... Eben lese ich im Informationsblatt, dass dann mind. 200EUR auf mich zukommen und dann noch evlt. Übersetzungskosten oder Kosten für Post, Kopien usw.

Ich weis ja nicht wieviel Arbeit das macht und will die Arbeit auch nicht abwerten, aber für mich sind 200-250EUR doch ganz schön viel Geld. Ich schätze mal, dass es die einzige Möglichkeit ist an die Unterlagen/Akten usw. ranzukommen oder???

Da er von 1943-1946 in Gefangenschaft war und bis auf den Entlassungsschein nichts in seinen Unterlagen hat, wird dort bestimmt das ein oder andere Dokument vorliegen (denke ich zumindest). Ich habe gelesen, dass die Gefangenen auch Fragebogen ausfüllen mussten mit Angabe über die "Tätigkeit" bei der Wehrmacht, näheres zur Gefangennahme usw.

Was passierte denn mit den Unfiformen und für mich wichtiger, mit dem Soldbuch, Ausweis, Erkennungsmarke und was der normale Landser so alles bei sich hatte??

The exact date of appearance of the Resurrection monastery is unknown. It was first mentioned in the charter of Belozersk Prince Mikhail Andreevich in 1449. The legend states that it was founded by the monks Feodosy and Afanasy the Iron Crozier. The experts studied some documents and had every reason to suppose that the temple was erected in 1362.

ABOUT CATAMARAN BOATS

Catamarans have two hulls and can be either sailing or power boats. With a wide beam, they are very spacious, as well as stable, safe, and fast, making them popular bluewater cruisers. Search for new or used catamarans for sale by all the top brands, and refine the search by price, length, or location. 

Main Characteristics of Catamarans

Catamarans are easily identified by their double hulls (and in the case of trimarans, triple hulls), which make them stand out among more traditional monohull vessels. Catamarans can be either sail or motor vessels, and vary widely in size from beach-launched and dinghy-style beginner catamarans up to superyacht luxury vessels. 

Catamarans have many positive attributes, which are helping them gain popularity throughout the world. Due to their overall wider beam, they offer much more space than a monohull of the same length; for example, a 40-foot catamaran often offers the same space as a 50-foot monohull. They have a unique layout, with larger boats featuring cabins in both hulls and a spacious living space on an above-the-waterline bridgedeck in between the hulls. Many catamarans are also capable of high speeds, especially in a straight line, which makes them popular to race as well as cruise for long distances.

When it comes to safety, catamarans are highly regarded as being virtually unsinkable thanks to having two hulls, a characteristic valued by bluewater cruisers. While they are extremely stable boats and heel far less than a monohull, in storm-force winds and waves they can capsize. Even then, they are much less likely to sink than a monohull.

Types of Catamaran

Sailing catamarans.

Sailing catamarans dominate the multihull market and have been in production for decades. Sales are seeing a huge boom, however, as sailors realize the safety and space advantages they typically hold over monohull yachts. Sailing cats can be as small as a dinghy, sailed off a beach, such as the one- and two-person Hobie Cats. From there they can range up to multi-cabin vessels with huge above-water living spaces designed for long-range voyages.

Power Catamarans

Also rising in popularity are power catamarans , as owners realize the vast living space that they offer. With their wide beam, they allow for multiple cabins between the two hulls and a light-filled, above-water bridgedeck and cockpits that allow for multiple couples or large families to cruise on a vessel that can also be handled by just two people. 

Cruising and Bluewater Catamarans

There is considerable crossover between bluewater and cruising catamarans, with many suitable for both coastal weekend cruising and around-the-world ocean voyages. When it comes to either, the positive attributes of the catamaran shine through. Both power and sailing catamarans offer dramatically more space in the same length of boat as a monohull, with huge amounts of living space, wraparound views, full-sized galleys, multiple cabins and heads, and spacious decks. They’re fast and sturdy, too, and don’t heel like a standard monohull under sail, offering incredible stability.

Luxury Catamarans

Beautiful examples of luxury catamarans (many of which are semi- or custom-built) are becoming more commonplace, with some classifying as true superyachts. At a smaller scale, luxury catamarans can offer high-spec living spaces, high performance, green propulsion, renewable energy, and the latest innovation. 

Best Catamaran Brands

The catamaran industry is still relatively small compared to that of monohulls, with some key brands paving the way in design and development. As catamarans are favored by many charter companies, some brands such as Lagoon and Leopard produce models for both the charter and private owner market with different layouts. These are big names in the catamaran industry, with a fleet of sturdy, well-designed sailing and motor cats in the 40-60-foot sector. 

Within the competitive 40- to 60-foot sector the French company Fountaine-Pajot has been in the industry for over four decades and is also highly regarded for its bluewater cruisers. Other notable brands include Outremer , Catana , Beneteau Excess , Antares, and Xquisite , all designed for long-term livability as well as bluewater cruising. So too are HH Catamarans and BALI Catamaran s, known for their clever use of interior space. 

On the smaller end of the cruising catamaran sector are top brands with moderate-sized models such as Seawind , Nautitech and Comar . Their models run the gamut from high-performance cats to smart, modestly priced cruisers.

When it comes to motor catamarans, the market is still relatively small but growing year on year. Many of the brands mentioned above also build excellent motor cats to add to their line-up, while brands such as Invincible Boats , Freeman Boatworks , and Aquila Power Catamarans are specializing in fishing and cruising motor cats. 

Why Choose a Catamaran?

Catamarans offer a huge amount of extra space than a monohull of the same length thanks to their wide, double-hull beam. They are also renowned for their stability under sail, and do not keel much. This is ideal for those wanting to cruise gently with friends and family aboard, sail around the world, or for those prone to seasickness.

She has a huge heart, patience and an unrelenting drive to help people make their dreams come true. In the search for our boat, thru the purchase Cynthia was always available to answer any questions and negotiated diligently on our behalf. Combine that with her highly skilled understanding of boats as a broker, crew and a captain and you have a broker that anyone would be lucky to have on their team. Where some brokers would stop there, Cynthia continued helping us by finding dockage and ensuring our transition to boat ownership was smooth and painless. — Matthew G. I’ve done many complicated, stressful deals in my career and I highly value a good team. I really want you to know the importance of Cynthia’s involvement in making the sale happen. From the first time Cynthia came on my boat, I was impressed how quickly and aggressively she took on the assignment.  She was just “all over it” on day one!  She held everyone to task and made things happen. I cannot think of a time she didn’t follow-up immediately and completely.  As I live in California it was going to be difficult for me to go back-and-forth during the transaction.  Cynthia stepped up and helped find a new dock in Fort Lauderdale, she helped find the appropriate resources and helped in managing the repair work prior to the sale. Cynthia gave me good counsel as to how to approach the “deal” during the whole process.  All along the way she was just invaluable!!!!  Most brokers that I have dealt with were slow and painfully inept in this regard.  She is an excellent communicator and pays attention to the details.  While she represented both the seller and buyer we never once felt she wasn’t fair.  We just didn’t have to worry about it.  On top of everything else, Cynthia was fun to deal with!! Thanks so much! Dear Cynthia, I want to take a moment to thank you for all your assistance and efforts on the sale of my sailing vessel Orinoco. Your dedication to me as your client, skillful advertising and promotion for maximum exposure, together with your knowledge and experience in yachts, were a great combination to generate a successful sale. You also assisted me on finding a slip in Fort Lauderdale and, delivering the vessel to the new slip from West Palm Beach to Fort Lauderdale on your personal time. It really was a pleasure to have your professional attention on all aspects of preparing the boat and making it more attractive to potential buyers.  I highly recommend you, not only as a helpful salesperson, but for all your knowledge, expertise and willingness to be there when I needed you. I can assure you that my next purchase of a boat, I will contact you for your awesome services.  Thank you, Johnny Sucre — The Sucre Family First of all, I’d like to say thanks to you both for taking the time to speak to me and for your help in facilitating the purchase. I was a little skeptical especially on the deposit but after speaking with you all it put me at ease that if for some reason this Lagoon wasn’t the right one that I’d get my deposit back. I have heard some horror stories. I actually started my search with a competitor but after thoroughly reading this companies reviews I decided to part ways early in the process. I’d like to let you know that Cynthia did an excellent job with me throughout the process. I’m not the easiest person to deal with, especially when I’m out of my element. My guard was up and she had to deal with that and with a seller at the same time. I can’t speak for the seller but she did not push too hard but applied enough to get me moving in the right direction and there is nothing wrong with that. Sometimes it takes a little push, a little reassuring, and a little reasoning. She overcame my objections with a few items and was all over the punch list in making sure it was done in a timely manner and I truly felt she was looking out for my interests. She is one of the main reasons, along with this particular boat, why I went ahead with the purchase. She did an excellent job and I wanted to make sure you all knew that. You have a great employee and person in Cynthia and I wish her all the success in the industry! Thank you again! Trust & Expertise About Us Successful relationships cannot exist without it.

The move comes as Russia’s full-scale invasion of neighbor Ukraine has triggered an AI arms race on the battlefields there, especially in aerial and land drones , that analysts believe will shape future conflicts. Elements of artificial intelligence have long been used in the Russian military industry, which is tightly controlled by the government. For example, there is a cluster of ground robot makers for the Marker, Platforma-M, Soratnik, Uran-9 vehicles that have supplied their wares for the war against Ukraine. The country’s missile complex, too, has a history in infusing varying degrees of autonomy into targeting algorithms, perhaps most famously under the Perimeter program, a Soviet-era algorithm sequence for orchestrating a retaliatory nuclear strike. Now, Russian officials are outfitting equipment returning for repairs from the Ukraine war with new technology, like remotely controlled fire modules, automatic target tracking, and propulsion systems, Vasily Elistratov, who oversees AI technology at the Russian Ministry of Defence, said at the Forum Army-2024 held here this month. According to Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, the volume of the Russian AI market in 2023 reached almost 650 billion rubles, or $7.3 billion, an amount dwarfed by spending in the collective West on various outgrowths of the technology. The dedicated AI budget line, for which officials have yet to give a number, is meant to help facilitate the transition into defense applications. A specialized department for the development of artificial intelligence is now in place in the Russian Defense Ministry, Chernyshenko announced. For example, an AI control capability is now in development for the S-500 air-defense system, with threat assessment and damage prediction of a possible ballistic missile attack. “The Russian defense industry will develop artificial intelligence and automated systems for products with high speed, where errors are not so critical,” said Sergei Smyslov, an independent defense industry expert based in Russia. With that in mind, potential applications include missile defense systems, artillery shells and aerial drones, he added. Another area of AI use will be aviation and artillery to increase their efficiency, said Pavel Luzin, senior fellow at the Center for European Policy Analysis. Autonomous attack drones will likely remain commodities for a long time. As for autonomous ground robots, most of them will be used to supply troops on the battlefield and evacuate the wounded. AI will also be used in computer modeling of military campaigns during their preparation, Luzin said. Russia is also going to use AI to improve the production processes of military products, with automatic quality checks that will trigger a manufacturing halt if they fail. The Ministry of Defense by itself is unlikely to be able to effectively develop weapons with AI. There is a personnel problem in the scientific institutes of the Ministry of Defense, as the best graduates tend to go elsewhere. Government officials have been building a development track in the government-owned industries instead, for example through Rostec companies and the Era Foundation, according to Luzin. In early 2022, Rostec State Corporation’s Roselektronika Holding created the Artificial Intelligence Technologies Research Laboratory, which is engaged in research on the use of AI in radio communication systems, development in the field of virtual-reality technologies, big data technologies, and machine learning of deep neural networks. The Era Foundation seeks to identify new technology among private companies and universities. In August, the foundation selected eight projects – including an unmanned boat, a remote-controlled turret, various drones, and a drone-detection system – that will receive funding to enter mass production.
