Koopmans 46ft, aluminium långfärdsbåt med lyftbar köl

This is a ship specifically designed for long-distance cruise sailing, yet it’s equally at home in shallow coastal waters.

Equipped with a liftable centerboard and rudder, it effortlessly adapts to both cruising in shallow coastal or tidal areas - and braving the open seas (1,1m - 2,5m draft). The hull is extra reinforced, making it ideal even for Arctic voyages. Always 1-family-owned, this yacht was designed by the renowned Dutch designer Koopmans and built in an aluminum boatyard, Folmer Rijs B.V., in the Netherlands.

Another remarkable feature is its low-profile steering house, which still provides an upright standing height of around 1,80 meters in both the steering house and the main saloon. The interior design is finished in light elmwood, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. 3 cabins with beautiful woodwork, a spacious salon and 2 bathrooms.

Details are built with long-distance sailing in mind, with practical features and built-in redundancy.

It’s a cutter rig with a genoa-style front sail (Dutch: kluiver, Swedish: kluvare) and a jib. This ship has been sailing in Sweden (harbour in Gothenburg/Göteborg). Journeys include Northern Norway's North Cape. In the last years, the boat has mostly been sailed family-style at the west coast.
