Today we take you on a tour of the best used boat bargains you can find in the Motor Boats classifieds section. A space designed for you where you can sell and buy used boats, rent and sell berths, accessories, and even look for and offer jobs! Today we have scouted for you five used motor boats for all tastes from 6.94 to 17.37 m.
These are very different boats in terms of design, history and use, but they are all interesting “goodies.” From the vintage day cruiser to the bestseller of the 2000s, to the bolide that takes you on a sporty cruise but in absolute comfort. We present them in ascending order of length. A safe used: guarantees Motor Boats!
The first of the used boats for sale in the classifieds section is a real
Classic Boat
whose value is bound to grow over time. We’re talking about a Camuffo C4 (6.94 x 2.35 m), a daycruiser straight out of the 1960s, perfect for your daily outings, whether at sea or at the lake.
A boat of great historical value because it was built by Camuffo, the oldest shipyard in the world, active since 1438.
With six centuries of wooden, entirely handmade shipbuilding, the Camuffo Shipyard in Portogruaro, Venice, has earned the nickname “Stradivari of the Sea” because it has been able to combine exclusivity and uniqueness derived from craftsmanship with good performance on the water. In fact, the fairings are designed for maximum performance, enabling fuel economy.
The model we propose was made in 1968 from mahogany, cherry, and teak wood. A collector’s cabin cruiser (with original toilet, restored in 2022) kept in excellent condition, with new cushions and chartplotter. A ‘full-coverage cockpit extension has been added to its complete and available original awning.
It is powered by two Mercruiser inboards in perfect condition and has up-to-date electronics and can be seen at the Adriamare Boatyard, one kilometer from Lignano Sabbiadoro. Attractive price.
The second of the used boats under review in our classifieds section is perfect for your outings and spending a few days aboard. In fact, on the Bavaria 33 Sport (9.96 x 3.45 m) the German shipyard, thanks to the 2002 design by the Slovenians of J&J, managed to combine pleasing design with habitability and usable space. The hull is interesting, angled with variable bottom angle and characterized by a high dive-to-length ratio.
The model is one of what were called “express cruisers” at the time, or fast cruising boats. Below deck, the interior is spacious (1.80 m high in forward cabin, 1.85 in saloon) and well-finished, wooden. In the bow is the master cabin with a peninsula double, and in the stern is the double cabin with a double perpendicular to the hull. In the dinette is the kitchen, the sofa surrounding the dining table, and the bathroom.
On deck, the cockpit is comfortable with a U-shaped dinette and table to the left (this area can be converted into a sundeck thanks to the fold-down backrest system, while to starboard is the “wet bar” with sink and refrigerator. A seat fixed on a sliding base is reserved for the pilot to adjust to various stature. The aft platform is extended and has a retractable ladder. Completing the deck layout is the XXL bow sundeck.
The model we offer, for sale in Marina di Pisa, is equipped with every convenience and double anchor (fore and aft) and is ready to take you on a cruise!
We continue with the third and last of the boats used “under the lens” of the day. Here we definitely go up in square footage with a Sunseeker Predator 61 (17.37 x 4.65 m), built in 2001 by Sunseeker to a design by Don Shead, the historic signature of the British shipyard since 1979.
A super-comfortable and sporty boat with which you will be able to tack in total stability and peace of mind at 30 knots while sitting in the super-accessorized covered deckhouse with bar, refrigerator, large sofa and table.
The interior features a large dinette with a wide V-shaped sofa on the starboard side and a galley on the port side. The model we offer, which can be seen in Tyrrhenian, is from 2003 and is offered in its layout with two XXL cabins with a double peninsula bed and two bathrooms.
The boat is super-equipped: bow and stern maneuvering propeller, 220v Kohler generator, air conditioning (hot/cold), garage for the tender, satellite TV antenna, ice-maker, electronic instrumentation complete with radar and autopilot. These are just some of the amenities on board. Propulsion (inboard diesel inline) is by two 1,050-horsepower Man engines that have 1,300 engine hours.
