20 Bluewater Cruising Sailboats Under $100,000

January 5, 2021 by Travis Turgeon 2 Comments

thom milkovic p 0tDp9zAeI unsplash 1 - 20 Bluewater Cruising Sailboats Under $100,000

Choosing the right bluewater yacht for your needs requires a ton of research. With so many designs and features available, it can be overwhelming trying to narrow down your options. The process gets even more complicated when you begin to consider the personal opinions of other sailors. 

So how do you know where to start? Every person’s definition of comfortability will vary when it comes to onboard living. What suits a family of four won’t necessarily suit a couple or a single-handed sailor. Your budget, style, and needs are all unique to you and your situation, so it’s essential to know just what to look for when buying a new or used vessel . 

To start you off in the right direction, we put together a list of our top choices for bluewater cruising yachts under $100,000.

Allied Princess 36

Green Allied Princess 36 sailboat at a marina

Built as a long-keel ketch or cutter, the Allied Princess 36 was in production from 1972 to 1982. Around 140 vessels were manufactured in total, so you can occasionally find them on the used market. 

While these cruisers’ design and construction are considered sufficient, the excessive use of fiberglass makes the design a bit bland. Although they may not have the most appealing design, these bluewater yachts certainly tick a lot of boxes.

With the full-keel measuring just four-foot six inches, it’s a design that holds steady on its course without pointing as high as a fin-keel design. 

Overall, the Allied Princess 36 is a wonderful option for bluewater sailing.

Prices range between $30,000 and $60,000.

Cabo Rico 38

Cabo Rico sailboat with green sails

The Cabo Rico 38 is at the top of its class, constructed with a long-keel cutter rig design that gives it outstanding bluewater capabilities for its price point. The vessel was produced in two models – Pilothouse, and Trunk Cabin – although the Pilothouse design is less common.

Cabo Rico i s consistently successful with it s 38 models, and t hey remain one of the most prominent cruising boats on the water.

Internally, this boat has various features required for a bluewater cruiser: Large water and fuel tanks, a solid design with balsa wood cores for thermal and noise insulation, and an overall seaworthy design.

While this boat wasn’t m eant to win races, it is a fantastic choice for a crui sing vessel.

Prices range between $30,000 and $80,000.

Celestial 48

Bluewater Celestial 48 sailboat

The Celestial 48 is the largest boat on our list and is commonly sought after by the cruising fraternity. The problem is, these vessels are scarce on the used market. 

The Celestial 48 is a ketch rig with a shoal-draft, fin-keel design, and a center-cockpit configuration that is comfortable and ideal for bluewater sailing. One of our favorite features is the six-foot, two-inch headroom in the cabin, along with high-capacity water and fuel tanks.

The Celestial 48 was built in China by the Xiamen boatyard, although it’s no longer in production.

If you can find one, the Celestial 48 will make an excellent bluewater cruiser.

Prices start near our $100,000 mark.

Bluewater Corbin 39 sailboat

The Corbin 39 is manufactured in two designs, aft or center cockpit. Designed and built in Canada by Robert Dufour and Marius Corbin, the 39 is now (sadly) out of production. This cruiser remains a favorite of many and is still commonly searched for on the used market.

One thing to note is that most of the boats were sold as unfinished kits, leaving owners to complete the interiors themselves. For this reason, the standard of interior design finish will vary, so it’s worth checking and comparing with other vessels carefully.

When found, the Corbin 39’s present a very reasonable price tag, but a full survey is essential.

Prices range between $40,000 and $60,000.

Docked Freedom 36 sailboat at sunset

The Freedom 36 is one of the smaller yachts on our list, but it has an exciting design that attracts cruisers. The wide beam and long waterline design allow for a much larger interior than most other boats of similar length. As a cruiser, space is a top priority, so this cruiser should be on your list of considerations.

A unique feature of this Freedom yacht is the stayless carbon fiber mast. It looks a little odd for most, with no forestay or backstay and a mast that flexes alarmingly in the wind. It’s a proven design, though, and gives clean lines just like an aircraft wing.

The Freedom 36 is certainly an exciting cruiser to keep an eye on.

Prices range between $40,000 and $80,000.

Gulfstar 44

Gulfstar 44 sailboat at sea

Known as a capable cruiser or live-aboard boat, the Gulfstar 44 is a spacious yacht that can take you around the world.

Designed with a fin-keel and skeg-rudder, the Gulfstar is comfortable and well built.

Internally, you’ll find a large galley, king-size aft cabin, and spacious fore cabin, with ample room in the saloon. Earlier Gulfstar vessels suffered from inconsistent build quality, but from around 1976 onwards, the company made huge improvements.

For a spacious bluewater sailboat with excellent heavy-weather handling characteristics, the Gulfstar 44 is a great choice.

Prices start around $60,000.

Hans Christian 38

1989 Hans Christian 38 T sailboat

If you’re considering cruising the world in a bluewater yacht, then the Hans Christian 38-T should be added to your shortlist of candidates. 

With a full-length keel design and laden with solid teak, this boat weighs in at 12.5 tons, making it a heavy displacement vessel that you can rely on to take you through some of the harshest conditions.

Manufactured in Taiwan, these cruisers can be a chore to acquire. One of the most common downfalls of the Hans 38-T is electrical problems, so be sure to get the wiring checked out by a professional. 

Outside of electrical issues, this boat is a proven winner in the cruising world. 

Prices start around $70,000 but expect to pay well over $100,000 for the more admirable models.

Hinckley Bermuda 40

Group of people on a Hinckley Bermuda 40 with blue sails

The Hinckley Bermuda 40 was in production for over 30 years, from 1959 until 1991, but only 203 boats were manufactured in total. Many Bermuda 40s were used as racing vessels throughout their production, winning the Northern Ocean Racing Trophy in 1964. 

The design also gained many admirers in the cruising world thanks to the long keel and centerboard, which allows the boat to maneuver through shallow waters. The Hinckley Bermuda 40 is hard to beat for versatility, combining classic looks with the shallow draught and generous interior space.

Early models from the 60s and 70s start around $80,000, but later models land well above our $100,000 threshold.

Island Packet 35

Island Packet 35 sailboat anchored at harbor

Although only in production for six years, 178 Island Packet 35s made their way onto the market. These vessels have become justifiably popular with coastal cruisers and bluewater sailors alike.

These cruisers are available in two designs; long-keel or long-keel with centerboard – both of which come with cutter rigging. 

The design is conservative and built for comfort rather than speed. Inside space is very generous, with a 12-foot beam, a v-berth cabin in the forepeak, and a double cabin on the aft port side.

Island Packet 35’s appear on the used market regularly, so locating one shouldn’t be too much of a hassle.

Prices start at around $65,000.

Niagara 35 yacht at a dock

The Niagara 35 is a popular cruiser available in two exciting models, each one coming with a fantastic interior design. 

The original model features a center galley and marine toilet that separates the fore and aft areas. The saloon is completely closed off, making it useful during extended passage journeys.

The later model has a double-berth forward, separated from the saloon by the head and shower. Both models include a spacious cockpit design. Through its 12 years of production, 260 Niagara 35’s went on the market – so you can regularly find them for sale.

Early models start around $30,000, with later models coming in closer to $70,000.

White Nordic 40 sailboat with blue sails in a marina

Only 32 of the Robert Perry-designed Nordic 40s went through production, making them exclusive and difficult to find. If you do manage to get your hands on one, however, you won’t be disappointed.

The fin-keel and skeg-mounted rudder design allow for up to six people to stay comfortably, including extra storage space for luggage and provisions. 

The Perry design is recognized for the quality of its fittings, including rod-rigging and full hull insulation on early models. After 1987, they cut back on a few design features, but it’s still a quality boat. 

If you can manage to find a Nordic 40, it will make an excellent investment.

While it may be rare to find one below our $100,000 mark, it is possible.

Passport 40

Passport 40 sailboat anchored near shore

Built in Taiwan, the Passport 40 is another excellent design by Robert Perry. Sporting a fin-keel and a skeg-mounted rudder, the design is known for its well-balanced performance. 

Originally supplied with a sloop-rig, the majority have an inner stay, fitted to allow a double headsail. This cutter-style rig makes the Passport 40 even more suitable for ocean crossings.

The interiors are well designed – as you’d expect from a Robert Perry – and make for comfortable living during long passages.

Peterson 44

Peterson 44 sailboat with a mountain backdrop

The Peterson 44 was designed and built as a performance cruiser, combining sufficient speed and sea-kindly handling. 

A low center-cockpit, 10,000 pounds of lead ballast, and a long fin keel allow this vessel to take turbulent conditions in stride without sacrificing the crew’s comfort. 

Internally, there is plenty of space in the well-designed cabin. For long passages, there’s a 132-gallon water tank and a 117-gallon fuel tank.

Finding a Peterson 44 may be your only problem. They manufactured about 200 boats, but owners rarely like to part with them – adding to their intrigue and value.

Prices for these yachts vary widely. Expect to pick up an older model between $50,000 and $75,000.

Prout Snowgoose 37

Prout Snowgoose 37 catamaran on a mooring line

As the only catamaran on our list, the Prout Snowgoose 37 is a proven boat for circumnavigation on the bluewater trail. 

A standout feature of the early Snowgoose models is its narrow beam, which allows them to navigate canals easily. These boats are popular in Europe and are common on the journey between Spain and France on the Mediterranian. Additionally, the Prout Snowgoose 37 can fit into a single-hull marina, reducing berthing costs when compared to most other catamarans. 

If you have never considered a catamaran in the past, the Prout Snowgoose 37 may change your mind.

Prices start near $45,000, with later models reaching over $100,000.

Two people on the back of a Shannon 38 sailboat

The Shannon 38 comes in two styles, with either an aft cockpit or pilothouse. Shannon Yachts are known for their build quality and attention to detail, and the 38 is no exception. The boat is available as either a ketch or cutter rig, but it’s renowned for its performance at sea in both forms.

Only 100 were built, with the final boat launched in 1988. If you can find one on the used market, it will make a competent bluewater cruiser.

Prices start at $40,000 for older models, with newer models inching closer to our $100,000 mark.

Tartan 4100 Spark sailboat on a cloudy day

Only 80 of the Tartan 41s were manufactured, although they produced a similar Tartan 43 with the same molds. It is a fin keel design, with a skeg-mounted rudder and sloop-rigging. In its day, it was considered a fast cruiser, but now they’re mostly made for comfort.

If you’re looking at a Tartan 41, check out the keel dimensions. The keel was undersized on earlier models, which caused heavy-weather steering issues. The boatyard redesigned the later models, and some retrofitting has been done on the originals.

Prices start around $45,000 and reach upwards of $70,000.

Tayana 37 bluewater sailboat with an American flag

No list of bluewater sailboats would be complete without the Tayana 37. It’s a beautiful boat designed by Robert Perry that comes in three variants; cutter, ketch, and pilothouse. 

Built to compete against the popular Westsail 32, the 37 became a good seller – with almost 600 launched to date. Today, they are manufactured in limited numbers, as the traditional teak-heavy design is now less popular.

If you can find a good Tayana 37, cruising the oceans will be a pleasure in this sturdy and robust vessel.

Early models cost around $45,000, with newer or retrofitted models topping $75,000.

Valiant 40 cruiser with white sails designed by Robert Perry

Another boat designed by Robert Perry, the Valiant 40 is one of the most sought-after bluewater cruisers on the used market. By the end of production, two manufacturers were able to put out around 200 boats, so it’s certainly possible to get your hands on one.

With a fin keel, reasonably heavy displacement, and solid build, open ocean cruising is made comfortable in the Valiant 40.

The Valiant’s trademark is the canoe stern, something Perry has carried over into many of his designs. The boat’s performance sets it apart from the more traditional heavy-cruisers, and it still has many admirers.

Expect to pay upwards of $45,000 for an early Valiant, but well-maintained vessels will command much higher prices.

Wauquiez Pretorien 35

Wauquiez Pretorien 35 small sailboat

When the weather gets rough, most people prefer bigger, heavier cruisers. Small boats generally don’t perform as well in harsh conditions, but the Pretorien 35 is an exception.

Built to IOR specifications, it’s a short, wide-beam design, with a ballast in the keel that makes up half of the displacement. It may be disappointing in light winds, but as the breeze picks up, the Pretorien comes alive.

Wauquiez built boats are known for their quality finish, so you shouldn’t hold any doubts when buying a used Pretorien.

Prices start around $39,000.

Westsail 32

White Westsail 32 cruiser in a marina

At just 32 feet, the Westsail might be a surprising inclusion on our list. However, the design has proven itself many times over and remains popular with many cruisers.

With a long keel, transom-mounted rudder, and heavy displacement, these are seaworthy yachts.

The flipside to this is that the performance can be underwhelming. The Westsails are known for being slow, safe boats that will get you wherever you need to go – making them perfect for leisurely cruising. 

Over 800 vessels entered the market between 1971 and 1981, so there should be plenty available if you look hard enough. The other point to remember is that they sold them as owner-completion kits, so the internal fitments, in particular, will vary in quality.

With so many available, the prices remain reasonable – with an early Westsail 32 fetching around $29,000 and well-maintained older models coming in closer to $50,000.

Remember: When buying a bluewater cruising yacht for less than $100,000, compromise is inevitable. 

If you’re looking for a seaworthy, heavy-displacement design, you’ll have to compromise on the boat’s age. Choosing a modern, light design will allow you more for your money.

The best advice for buying a boat is to be truly honest with yourself by defining your needs and separating them from your desires.

  • Upgrades and Added Value: Many pre-owned boats come with added value from previous owners’ upgrades and enhancements. These upgrades could include improved electronics, custom features, or other accessories that would have otherwise cost you more if buying new.
  • Variety of Models: When looking at pre-owned boats, you’ll find a wide variety of models from different years and manufacturers. This gives you a broader selection to choose from, allowing you to find a boat that meets your specific needs and preferences.
  • Condition Verification: It’s crucial to verify the condition of the pre-owned boat you’re considering. Request maintenance records and conduct a thorough inspection to assess the boat’s overall health, including the hull, engine, and other crucial components.
  • Surveys and Inspections: Consider hiring a professional marine surveyor to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the pre-owned boat. A surveyor can identify potential issues and provide you with a detailed report, helping you make an informed decision.
  • Warranties and Certified Pre-Owned Options: Some pre-owned boats may still have existing warranties, depending on the manufacturer’s warranty transferability. Additionally, some dealerships offer certified pre-owned programs, where boats undergo rigorous inspections and come with extended warranties for added peace of mind.
  • Reputation and Dealer Support: When buying a pre-owned boat from a dealership, consider their reputation and the level of dealer support they offer. Reputable dealerships may offer additional services, such as financing options, maintenance packages, or post-purchase support.
  • Sea Trials: Whenever possible, request a sea trial to test the boat’s performance on the water. A sea trial allows you to experience the boat firsthand and assess its handling, speed, and overall condition in real-world conditions.

Overall, purchasing a pre-owned boat can be a practical and economical way to own a quality vessel within the $100,000 budget. However, due diligence is crucial to ensure you’re getting a reliable and well-maintained boat. Take your time to research, inspect, and verify the boat’s condition, and consider any available warranties or certified pre-owned options for added peace of mind.

Tips on Financing Options and Budgeting for a Boat Purchase Under $100,000

In this section, we’ll cover financing options and budgeting tips for purchasing a boat under $100,000:

  • Setting a Realistic Budget: Before diving into the boat-buying process, establish a realistic budget that aligns with your financial capabilities and desired boat features. Consider not only the initial purchase price but also ongoing ownership costs, including insurance, mooring fees, maintenance, and fuel expenses.
  • Understanding Total Cost of Ownership: Owning a boat involves more than just the purchase price. Factor in ongoing expenses like insurance, winter storage, routine maintenance, fuel, and any potential repairs. Understanding the full cost of ownership will help you avoid financial surprises down the line.
  • Exploring Financing Options: If you plan to finance your boat purchase, explore various financing options to find the best fit for your needs. Many banks and credit unions offer boat loans with competitive interest rates. Consider the loan term, interest rates, and monthly payments that fit comfortably within your budget.
  • Pre-Approval: Before shopping for a boat, consider getting pre-approved for a boat loan. Pre-approval gives you a clear idea of your budget and allows you to negotiate confidently when discussing prices with sellers or dealers.
  • Saving for Down Payment: If you’re planning to finance the boat, having a down payment can help lower the loan amount and monthly payments. Aim for a substantial down payment to reduce your financial burden and potentially secure more favorable loan terms.
  • Personal Savings: If you prefer not to finance the boat, consider using personal savings or a combination of savings and financing for the purchase. Using personal savings can reduce long-term interest costs and simplify the buying process.
  • Insurance Considerations: Boat insurance is a crucial aspect of boat ownership. Research different insurance providers and policies to find comprehensive coverage that protects you and your investment. The insurance cost will be an ongoing expense to include in your budget.
  • Budget for Maintenance: Boats require regular maintenance to stay in good condition and perform optimally. Budget for routine maintenance, as well as any unexpected repairs that may arise over time.
  • Negotiating Price: When shopping for a boat, don’t hesitate to negotiate the price with the seller or dealer. Be prepared to walk away if the deal doesn’t align with your budget or if you have concerns about the boat’s condition.

By setting a realistic budget, understanding the total cost of ownership, and exploring financing options, you can make an informed and financially sound decision when purchasing a boat under $100,000. Whether you choose to finance or use personal savings, proper budgeting ensures that your boating experience remains enjoyable without causing undue financial strain.

Update Schleifähre : 100.000 Euro für den Rückkauf der alten Fähre

Jill Grigoleit

 ·  18.09.2024

Zurück aus dem Ruhestand: Die alte Dieselfähre Missunde II hat den Fährdienst wieder übernommen nachdem sich der Start der neuen Elektrofähre aufgrund von Fehlplanungen verzögert

Lesen Sie hier mehr zur Hintergrundgeschichte

  • Petition zum Erhalt der alten Schleifähre

Im Mai hatten wir über die Bemühungen der „Interessengemeinschaft Fähre Missunde“ berichtet, die alte Schleifähre „Missunde II“ auch nach Saisonende zu behalten. Innerhalb weniger Tage hatte die Petition der Interessengemeinschaft die erforderlichen 2000 Unterschriften erreicht, damit das Anliegen im Petitionsausschuss des Landes angehört wird. Die alte Fähre erhielt die offizielle Erlaubnis bis 2028 weiter zu fahren - notgedrungen, denn die neue Fähre ist weiterhin nicht einsatzbereit und wird voraussichtlich noch bis Herbst 2025 umgebaut.

Neue Fähre erst ab Winter 25/26 einsatzbereit

Vorgesehen ist laut Verkehrsministerium in Kiel, dass die alte Fähre noch bis Ende 2025 im Einsatz bleiben soll. Ab Winter 2025/26 peilt das Land den Übergang zur Nachfolgefähre „Missunde III“ an, mit fast zwei Jahren Verspätung.

„Das ist für uns eine gute Nachricht“, sagte Verkehrsstaatssekretär Tobias von der Heide am Montag in Kiel. „Allerdings garantiert uns das leider nicht, dass die ,Missunde II’ angesichts ihres schlechten technischen Zustands so lange durchhält.“ Man freue sich jedoch über den „notwendigen zeitlichen Puffer“, um Lösungen für den Neubau zu finden.

Meistgelesene Artikel

yacht 100 000

Im Begründungstext der Petition vom 08. Mai wurde die neue Fähre als zu groß und zu schwer kritisiert und ein Fährbetrieb auch nach einem Umbau angezweifelt. Der Kopf der Interessengemeinschaft ist Brodersbys Bürgermeister Joschka Buhmann: “In unseren Augen wird hier an einer Idee festgehalten, die in der Umsetzung nicht tragbar ist. Hier wird Steuergeld verbrannt.” Selbst wenn die neue Fähre fahrbar gemacht werde, sei sie für den Fährpächter nicht wirtschaftlich zu unterhalten, so Buhmann im Mai. Die neue “Missunde III” benötige doppelt so lange, um das andere Ufer zu erreichen, und kann nicht mehr mit nur einer Person gefahren werden. “Dann hätten wir eventuell eine neue Fähre, die ganz vielleicht fährt, aber keinen Betreiber mehr.”

Schleifähre „Missunde III“: Pächter will an Bord bleiben

Zumindest was diese Bedenken angeht, gab sich der aktuelle und vermutlich künftige Pächter der Fähre, Rüdiger Jöns, zwei Monate später aber optimistisch. Das Land habe ihm zugesichert, dass die Verträge angepasst werden, sodass sich auch mit der neuen Fähre der Weiterbetrieb für ihn lohnt. Jöns: „Ich würde auch noch fünf Jahre weiterfahren mit der „Missunde II“, aber ich bin mir sicher, dass wir auch die „Missunde III“ zum Laufen kriegen.“

Nötige Umbauten an neuer Fähre und Anlegestelle

Insgesamt stehen laut Direktorin des Landesbetriebs für Küstenschutz, Nationalpark und Meeresschutz (LKN), Birgit Matelski, nun vier Arbeiten an der „Missunde III“ und den Anlegestellen an, damit die neue Fähre zum Einsatz kommen kann: So sollen zwei Querstahlruder eingebaut werden, damit die Fähre sich besser manövrieren lässt. Außerdem müssen die Seile, an denen entlang sich die Fähre bewegt, in der Position angepasst werden.

Auf jeder Uferseite der Schlei sollen zwei zusätzliche Dalben und ein Schwimmponton angebracht sowie Keile an den Rampen baulich angepasst werden, um das Anlegen zu erleichtern. Laut Plan sollen diese Arbeiten bis kommenden Sommer fertiggestellt werden. Zeit brauchen vor allem Genehmigungen und Ausschreibungen. Der Fährwechsel soll aber außerhalb der Saison erfolgen.

Ursprünglich hatte der Bau der Schleifähre „Missunde III“ 3,3 Millionen Euro gekostet. Das Land hat eine Anwaltskanzlei damit beauftragt zu prüfen, ob es Rechtsansprüche wegen des fehlkonstruierten Schiffs gibt. Trotzdem, so betont von der Heide, sei man nach wie vor in einem produktiven Austausch mit dem Konstrukteursbüro.

Inzwischen arbeitet der Konstrukteur der Seilfähre auch zusammen mit Experten des zuständigen LKN und der internationalen Klassifizierungsgesellschaft DNV (Det Norske Veritas). Ebenfalls mit im Boot ist der maritime Koordinator der Landesregierung Andreas Burmester, langjähriger Vorstand unter anderem der Kieler Werft TKMS.

Kritik von vielen Seiten

Das ganze Prozedere sorgte für viel Kritik – nicht nur bei den Menschen, die die Fähre zum Pendeln nutzen. So kritisiert die für die Region zuständige SPD-Abgeordnete, Birte Pauls: „Das Vorgehen rund um die Schleifähre war von vornherein ein Riesenfehler. Das ganze Hin und Her hat den Betroffenen nicht nur viele Nerven gekostet, sondern auch einen erheblichen wirtschaftlichen Schaden angerichtet.“ Von der Heide sagt dazu: „Wir müssen Fehler klar herausarbeiten. Wenn sich herausstellt, dass es Anspruch auf Schadensersatz gibt, dann werden wir diesen verfolgen.“
