2012 Meta 32, EUR 59 000

A small, sturdy aluminium blue-water yacht, also suitable for expeditions to the Arctic Ocean.

The hull was built by the META shipyard in France
and fitted out in mahogany between 2004 and 2012 by an experienced woodworker working independently.
The electrical and electronic systems were installed by a specialist from Mastervolt.

META has been based in Tarare since 1963 and is the builder of Bernard Moitessier’s historic JOSHUA. Thanks to the Strongall® manufacturing process patented by the shipyard in 1977 and its unique expertise, the shipyard designs and builds sailing boats, trawlers, speedboats and other watercraft using the pre-stressed aluminium deck-hull technique: ‘Our designs are efficient, innovative, comfortable and extremely robust.’

The interior fit-out of this yacht deviates slightly from the shipyard’s plans, but is of high-quality craftsmanship and very well thought out.
This reflects not only the experience gained from a long life of sailing, but also the experience gained from this owner’s third yacht refit.

Below deck, with a headroom of 184 cm, the wet room is located on the starboard side by the companionway, opposite which is the galley with a gas hob and oven, double sink and compressor-cooled fridge.
Behind this is an 185 cm long dog berth with a slatted base.
In the saloon area, we have two saloon sofas, each 195 cm long, which can be converted into comfortable berths by folding up the backrests.

On the starboard side, in front of the wet room, is the navigation table with a comprehensive range of navigation equipment.
Towards the bow, separated by a door, is a cabin with a 2 m long V-berth
with ventilated mattresses.
There are numerous cupboards and storage spaces throughout the lower deck.
A particularly special feature of this yacht is that it has no seacocks!
A pipe is welded to each outlet, which ends well above the waterline
