1984 Cardell 42, 35 000 EUR

The yacht is built and equipped for blue water cruising. Completed a circumnavigation 2022-2026.
Cardell 42 was sold as DIY. This boat was bought as unfinnished project 2004/05. We built
: new interior, painted hull and deck, added new deck hardware, new masts, rigg and sails from 2017. Lower shrouds changed 2025. Engine installed 2016.
Suitable for 2-3 persons who want a unique boat.
During our circumnavigation we have continously maintained the boat but as always there are minor projects to do for someone who enjoys working with his/her boat. But the boat is definately ship shape and ready for another sailing adventure if you are longing for the big oceans. GREIJ has a capacity to be off grid for several months at a time. The boat is of course just as well suited for a calm live aboard life style cruising e.g. the Caribbean islands or the Mediterranian sea. Even in a bit of a cooler climate. We have appreciated the deck saloon with an inner steering wheel very much. It keeps you warm and dry.
