The cabin or cabins often contain a pantry, berths and a wet cell. On smaller models the cabin could not reach headroom. Even smaller cabins are called slip cabins.Cabin cruiserA cabin cruiser is a larger boat with an enclosed cabin. In opposition to a daycruiser it is constructed for tours with overnight stays. In most of the cases the terms "cruiser" and "cabin cruiser" are the same.CatamaranLuxury yachtA luxury yacht is defined by a luxury construction style with the use of high quality materials, a high comfort level and a above average value. It's a boat of more than ten meters length, berths, wet cell(s) and a price of more than one million euro.MegayachtA mega yacht is a yacht with a price higher than 1 million euro.

Often it has a pantry, a salon and a separate owner cabin.OffshoreAn offshore boat has the CE-classification of seaworthiness C and is suitable for bays, river mouths, lakes and rivers, if there is no wind force higher than 6 and no wave height higher than 2 meters.OldtimerAn oldtimer is a boat already older than 20 years.RunaboutA runabout is a motorized open sports boat with seats for two to eight individuals. In many cases it has an enclosed foredeck and a sunlounge surface. Runabouts were most popular in the fivties and sisties and were often wooden.

Additional a sports cruiser is constructed as glider or half glider to generate higher speeds. A well known manufacturer of sports cruisers is the Bavaria shipyard.Steel boatA steel boat is a boat with a steel hull.

- Aluminum boatLead ballast keelLead ballast keels are heavy keels to guarantee the weight stability of a sailing yacht and are used in high quality yacht building. In opposition to grey cast iron keels lead has a 50% higher density, so the center of gravity could be put deeper without increasing the draft.Double keelA boat with double keel contains two flat side keels with the halve ballast share each. In opposition to boats with bilge keel double keel boats have no middle keel.Retractable keelA boat with retractable keel, in the form of a hydraulic keel or a lift keel, can retract the keel in a shaft to the ballast bomb and so the draft can be reduced.Winged keelThe winged keel with it's special shape improves the flow around the keel. The advantages are the smaller draft and better hydradynamics on higher speed. On lower wind these keel might brake a little bit.Wooden boatWooden boats are boats with a mainly wooden hull and deck. On modern wooden boats additional other materials are used. Classical and modern wooden sailing boats often contain a aluminum mast. Advantages of wooden boats are the durability and the opportunity to repair with own hands. Many appreciate the traditional character of those boats.Hydraulic keelKeelboatA keel boat is every sailing boat with a keel in form of a fin mostly fixed installed. You can distinguish between open keel boats with cabin and sailing yachts with cabin.Centreboard keelA centreboard keel is a compromise between keel and centreboard. A flat ballast keel is combined with a liftable centreboard, which reduces the drift. In that way a centreboard keel boat could be driven in flat water too and has more stability than a yawl cruiser.Bilge keelA bilge keel has two short plate shaped fins at both hul sides and a centre ballast keel. In that way the sailing yacht is able to stand on the bilge keel. That is an advantage in water with a wide tidal range, because it can stand dry on the ground without tilting.Classical profileSailing boats with classical profile are yachts with S-frame, which means the cross-section of the hull is S-shaped. Yachts with S-frame always have a long keel.Short keelIn opposition to the long keel the short keel takes up a lesser part of the longitudinal axis of the underwater hull, but extends to a greater depth. Sailing yachts with short keel are lighter, reach higher speeds and have a better maneuverability. Although short keel boats are less direction stable and have more draft than long keel boats.Long keelA long keel takes up a greater part of the underwater hull, but in opposition to the short keel extends lesser to the depth. Traditional sailing yachts often contain a long keel. In modern yacht building long keels are no longer usual.Luxury yachtA luxury yacht is defined by a luxury construction style with the use of high quality materials, a high comfort level and a above average value. It's a sailing boat of more than ten meters length, berths, wet cell(s) and a price of more than one million euro.MegayachtA mega yacht is a sailing yacht with a price higher than 1 million euro.

For purchasing an oldtimer from a private person we recommend the consulting of an expert.Swing keelA swing keel (or cant keel) is swingable windward. With this it puts the keel bomb upright and so higher speeds are reachable.CentreboardA centreboard boat is a boat without ballast getting it's stability more from the width of the hull. Sailing yawls contain a lift- and lowerable plug centreboard or a swingable lower centreboard. The centreboard reduces the drift at the side.Steel boatA steel boat is a boat with a steel hull. Because of the higher weight these boats are less sports boats but more long lasting boats. Steel boats don't have any problems with osmosis and maintainance is simple, but need regular care to avoid rust.Detailed searchIn addition here you can search for brand, length, location, motor type, material, model, construction year, price, fuel, performance and condition.
