Sloep Barkas Classic 850 for sale

BARKAS – A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE HANDY BOAT ENTHUSIAST

From €39,000 for just €20,000 – seize this opportunity and turn it into your own beautiful Barkas!

Sometimes a boat comes along and you think: there's an opportunity here.

This beautiful Barkas/launch is currently being offered for €39.000. However, on closer inspection it turned out that the underwater hull treatment needs to be addressed due to osmosis.

And that is exactly what makes this boat interesting for someone who is handy, can do the work themselves, or has access to a good shipyard.

€20,000 DISCOUNT

We have deliberately chosen not to beat around the bush here.

Instead of having the boat professionally repaired first for €10,000 and then raising the selling price, we are giving the buyer a €20,000 advantage.

The boat is therefore being offered for:

€ 20.000

This gives the buyer the opportunity to carry out the work themselves or have it done at a very competitive price.

What needs to be done?

The underside of the hull needs to be thoroughly addressed. This includes, among other things:

• completely sanding down the existing underwater layers;
• allowing the hull to dry properly and preparing it;
• rebuild with fiberglass and epoxy;
• apply multiple layers and sand carefully in between;
• finish the hull tight and smooth;
• then apply the correct primer buildup;
• finish with a professional antifouling.

It is absolutely a substantial job. But for someone with experience, time, and the right workspace, this can be a fantastic project.

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?

Because you're not starting with an empty hull that still needs everything done to it.

Here you have a complete Barkas/launch whose foundation is solid. The main investment now lies in labor and craftsmanship on the underwater hull.

Suppose you can carry out most of the work yourself.

Then you buy the boat for € 20.000 and then invest your own time, materials, and craftsmanship.

The result?

A beautiful Barkas that you can finish entirely to your own preference.

And most importantly: you have full control over the quality of the repair yourself.

FOR THE HANDY BOAT ENTHUSIAST

Are you someone who likes to work with their hands?

Do you have experience with polyester, fiberglass, and epoxy?

Do you have a workshop, warehouse, or good location?

Or do you know a craftsman who can carry out this kind of work for an attractive price?

Then this might be exactly the boat you've been looking for for years.

You can carry out the work step by step, rebuild the hull to be tight again, and then finish it completely professionally.

And when the work is done, you won't just have bought a nice boat.

You will have added value.

A PROJECT WITH POTENTIAL

A purchase price of € 20.000 gives you a huge starting position.

Even when you still need to invest a considerable amount in materials and labor, there remains room to ultimately end up with a very attractive boat.

And perhaps even more important:

you know exactly what has been done to it.

No unknown old layers under the antifouling, no half-hearted repairs, and no question marks about the history of the underwater hull.

You simply rebuild it from scratch.

From the first sanding session to the last layer of antifouling.

HONEST STORY, SHARP PRICE

We are therefore not selling this boat as a boat that requires no work.

On the contrary.

This is an opportunity for someone who dares to take on a job.

The osmosis treatment requires time, materials, and craftsmanship. But precisely because we have lowered the sales price by €20,000, the decision lies entirely with the buyer.

€39,000 was the original asking price.

€20,000 is now the project price.

Whoever can carry out the work themselves can make a particularly interesting purchase here.

WHO DARES?

Maybe you are that buyer who says:

"Just give me that boat. I'll take on that job."

Then soon you can sail with a Barkas that you have completely rebuilt and finished with your own hands.

From €39,000 to €20,000.

€20,000 advantage for the buyer who dares to take on this challenge.

This might just be your chance to get a beautiful boat and a great project in hand for a very attractive price.

a very beautiful classic and safe family boat, a terrace on the water

 

NOW reduced in price, new batteries, new wiring, cleaned fuel tank, major service, just polished.

Beautiful open launch with a lovely engine and in very good condition!!!

Barkas Classic 850, the most beautiful.

Fortunately, we once again have a beautiful open launch added to our offer. It is a fairly fast-sailing boat that is very stable. The engine has had a major service and the boat has undergone a particularly thorough cleaning, including the interior bottom, which has been given a new layer of paint, plus a new antifouling layer with several low primer coats underneath. In short, completely ready for the new season. The beautiful lines of the boat are striking as soon as it's in the water. I have now sailed it myself and it sails fantastically.

At the back, the boat has a beautiful round seating area in a U-shape, where you can cozily hang out with a group. The cushions are beautifully maintained and in very neat condition.

The boat has many built-in cabinets and storage spaces, sometimes even with beautiful classic curves. There are two large helm seats present, completely in the style of the boat.

The dashboard has 6 brass gauges including a really nice and clear rudder position indicator, so you can really enjoy seeing exactly how your rudder is positioned. The boat responds well and behaves very calmly and relaxed. The powerful bow thruster can also be a wonderful help when mooring and doesn't make much noise. The engine is of course very large and therefore nice and quiet but powerful when needed. There is a turbo present so giving it some throttle is no problem, 3600 rpm and your boat really moves forward briskly. There are various extras such as very nice navigation lighting but also a fairly large space in the front cabin which is of course a wonderful storage space

What I personally think is that you buy a new launch of 5.70 meters for the price of €20,000, while this model was now being offered for €39,500, so now attractively priced.

If you would like to take a nice test drive, please feel free to give me a call, Pieter Pepping from White Whale Yachtbrokers. 0653345219 or Vinkeveen@wwy.nl
