Four short steps to your selection

Start with your cruising plans. You can then adjust every result and compare models directly.

How your selection is created

We first look for models that suit your space needs, crew and planned trips. Your personal priorities then determine the order. The result is a manageable selection that you can refine at any time.

The selection refers to a model range. The condition, modifications and maintenance history of an individual used boat may be very different. Check every listing against its documents, inspection and independent professional advice where needed.

Example: a suitable model is only the beginning

A 12-metre cruising yacht may suit your crew, berth and travel plans. Whether a particular listing is worth pursuing still depends on the deck, rig, engine and equipment. The finder supports model selection; the later checks decide on the individual boat.

What the finder cannot decide for you

  • which individual listing is in the best condition
  • whether damage, modifications or deferred maintenance are present
  • whether the asking price suits the individual boat
  • whether an inspection or professional assessment can be skipped

How to read the result

The first group is the closest fit for your answers. We also show a more compact and a roomier alternative when suitable models are available. Strengths, compromises and missing details remain visible on every model so you can understand and adjust the selection.

When you want to look more closely at two or three models, transfer them with your choices into the purchase file. You can then add individual listings, costs, inspections and open questions.
