The "BRIES" is a ship that meets the dream wishes of many sailors, namely: A stable, unique beautiful classic design, easy to sail, comfortable and with a favorable price.
This boat belonged to the Netherlands Navy for almost 40 years to be used as a pleasure boat for high ranking officers (had excellent maintenance for decades), later it had 2 other owners in Alkmaar and I'm the last owner since 3 years ago. It pains me to sell the boat because it is a part of the history of the Netherlands and this beautiful classic look nowadays is hard to find and it's a Van de Stad (the name says it all if you know sailboat brands) also it's really fun to sail, but I bought a bigger boat and can't afford having 2 boats.
The cabin standing height is 1.85m and is completely finished with mahogany plywood that gives the interior a luxurious appearance and the boat was made with glass cloth reinforced polyester resin, one piece molded, hand laid out Lloyd's approved construction. Also surprisingly spacious and easy to come in and out.
This year a new insulation of 19mm Armaflex (best in the market) was installed and can hold the temperature up to -5 celsius, also reducing 85% of condensation.
Includes a diesel heater new (installed 3 years ago) never used. So it's a boat ready for the winter in the Netherlands.
Plus it comes with a double plexiglass door (with a cat door inclusive) that lets the light in and holds the cold outside.(original wood door included)
Total of 4-5 sleeping places in 2 practical rooms.
ENGINE
A New 8hp Tohatsu (Honda) outboard engine can be installed if you want to buy and sail right away.(has a adjustable support and comes with a 6 year full warranty and a full 10 liter gasoline tank) and its included in the selling price, also if you have your on engine its possible to be sold without the engine and with a 1.5 thousand euros discount on the asking price.
Original 8 hp Sabb diesel installed (comes with original book manual) it had proper maintence but is stuck inside because of lack of use so it needs to be taken out of the water if you want to unstuck. I did all the proper maintenance and used the engine for 50hours and had changed the oil and filters. The engine also comes with a manual crank to start it manually and the noise of the one cylinder working is amazing if you like old engines.
*A new automatic pilot (bought 3 years ago never used and not instaled) comes as a bonus with the boat.This text has been auto-translated. Show in original language
