Old acquaintance (in-depth discussion is at this link) of the Italian market, she is a cruiser with a size that perhaps best meets the demands of the weekender boat market segment: just under 9 meters. This makes her easy to handle and maneuver, but still spacious. Good for cruising, but capable of offering many clever and practical solutions for those who limit themselves to “daily demotorating.” For sale is one from 2006 hours with all round recent refit of various deck elements and various work done between 2023 and 2024. If you are looking for a good compromise between family outings and the ability to spend a weekend at anchor, this boat is for you.
Slightly above in size compared to the boat we have just seen, it is very similar in category of use. Outboard comes in at 9.5 meters while the hull length is around 9. Classic design, an interesting cockpit aft, and a bow sundeck accessed through the windshield. If desired, it can also function as a small cruiser since below deck it has two cabins and sleeps up to 5. Listed is a 2003 specimen located on Lake Maggiore with two Mercruiser 4.3 MPI engines of 220 HP each, Below decks accommodates leather-upholstered center dinette, a full galley with glass-ceramic oven and microwave, and a bathroom with hot/cold shower.
A piece of history, designed by Franco Harrauer, a historic powerboat designer. Do you remember this 1980s powerboat, super rare today, or the 30-knot sailboat (powered)? His stuff, that is, and that of another noble name in our nautical industry, Renato “Sonny” Levi. Those are just two examples. Today we talk about another type of boat for sale in our classifieds section. An Agema Hornet 22. It is a 7.25-meter cruising vessel with a maximum of five berths. It is built with a fiberglass laminate with no counter-molds and is, in the version shown, offered with a rebuilt Volvo Penta 165-hp turbo diesel inboard and taken to zero hours, 90 hours in place. Also new is the electrical system and flaps.
