1991 Jade Clipper, EUR 280,000

Steel expedition yacht built in Germany for serious long-range cruising, combining outstanding seaworthiness with exceptional liveaboard comfort. Originally designed and commissioned by a naval architect, she was purpose-built to handle both inland waterways and open ocean passages. The hull features lifting keel and bilge fins, allowing safe grounding in shallow waters while maintaining excellent offshore performance.

Constructed in heavy-duty steel with substantial plate thickness and multiple watertight bulkheads, she offers a rare level of strength, safety and autonomy. Large tank capacities and robust, redundant systems ensure reliable long-range cruising and remote voyages.

She has a documented history, including long-distance sailing in European waters, and during the past 12 years she has been a safe and reliable companion on voyages in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. She has also been comfortably lived aboard during winter, proving her capability as a true all-season vessel. With hydronic heating, solid insulation and a practical layout, she combines expedition-grade functionality with a warm and refined interior atmosphere.

My original ambition was to take her on a longer expedition voyage, something she is clearly built for. Unfortunately, due to health reasons, those plans are no longer realistic. It is therefore time for a new owner to take her further and continue the journey she was designed for.

A rare opportunity to acquire a unique, well-engineered bluewater cruiser with both character and capability—ready for new adventures, whether coastal, inland or offshore.
