DEGERO DECK SALOON YACHTS

Built at the Degerö yard near Helsinki, Finland, these yachts offer the build quality that the Scandinavians are famous for, practical and comfortable interiors and traditional hull designs that strike the perfect balance between performance and sea-keeping. The range starts with a 28-foot five-berth motor-sailer, with a distinctive curved transom and a spacious interior. She has a long keel, which as a result of a heavy lead ballast, permits shallow draft still retaining stiffness and stability.

At the top end of the range is a 38-foot deck saloon cruiser, with a modern hull design and a sumptuous six-berth interior. In between, there are 31, 33, 35 and 36 foot models, all offering the same high quality joinery and finish, distinctive designs and high specifications.

All models are "hand made" and represent the best quality and finish in woodwork as well as fibreglass. Degerö yachts are built by people that care for and love sailing and sailing boats. They are constructed using the best raw materials.

MIDGET SAILING YACHTS

Jachtwerf Gebr. de Kloet in Kortenhoef, near Hilversum in Holland, has a well established-reputation in the Dutch yacht-building industry. The yard has been building GRP yachts since 1959. It is a small, family firm that is active in new-building, repairs and maintenance as well as in stainless steel manufacturing. The family have always placed strong emphasis on quality, flexibility, customer-satisfaction and after-sales service.

The yachts are "semi-custom-built”, which means that owners are offered a lot of choice when the interiors of their yachts are built. Only first class materials are used throughout the yacht, and the stainless steel parts and fittings are largely made on the premises, which contribute to the quality and exclusivity of the yachts. All yachts are fully CE compliant. There are two yachts in the range at present - the Midget 31 and the Midget 26 and both have similar standard layouts.

A Midget under full sail is a wonderful sight. It's unique design both inside and out makes a refreshing change to the computer designed, mass produced products which have flooded the market in recent years. With her classic lines including a canoe stern she stands out from the mainstream. The cockpit is very large for a boat of this size - with teak seating and flooring she provides a warm welcome on board. Down below there is no forecabin. This means there is far more room in the saloon than conventional boats of this size. Two double cabins can be found as standard in the stern which astounds all who see her for the first time.
