GANDALF - HOLLAND

'GANDALF' is a remarkable vessel featuring a robust steel hull and deck, designed to navigate through challenging weather conditions with grace and stability. This yacht tracks effortlessly in large following seas, making it an exceptional choice for those seeking adventure.

Meticulously cared for by a distinguished Porsche mechanic and his spouse, this yacht for sale has undergone extensive enhancements from 1992 to 2017. The hull, deck, and exterior were completely stripped and refinished between 1992 and 1997, with sandblasting and a fresh coat of primer and paint applied throughout. The custom upgrades include stainless steel fittings expertly welded to the deck and reinforced stainless steel plating around the entire toe-rail. During this renovation period, the yacht's electrical and plumbing systems were entirely replaced, ensuring reliability and performance. The standing and running rigging were updated in 2003, while a new Yanmar diesel engine was installed in 1999, with a rebuilt transmission completed in 2008.

This finely crafted steel yacht is not only built to the highest standards but also serves as a swift passage maker, easily managed by one or two individuals (Newport to Bermuda in just 3.5 days).

Having completed an impressive eight-year round-the-world cruise, the speed, sturdy construction, and agility of this vessel proved invaluable during a pirate encounter off the coast of Yemen in 2005.

'GANDALF' stands out with its unique features and is a stunning representation of a well-built steel yacht. Fully equipped with numerous spare parts, this vessel is ready for its next adventure.
