Broker's Comments

With a reasonably recent engine and new upholstery this makes an attractive proposition. She has spent 22 of the last 25 years dry stored so lots of life in this one yet. Nearly 4000 of these were built which testifies to the design and with this one you get the whole boat for not much more than the price of the engine!

Review of Maxi 77

Basic specs..

The Maxi 77 is equipped with a fin keel. The fin keel is the most common keel and provides splendid manoeuvrability. The downside is that it has less directional stability than a long keel.

The keel is made of iron. Many people prefer lead keel in favour of iron. The main argument is that lead is much heavier than iron and a lead keel can therefore be made smaller which again result in less wet surface, i.e. less drag. In fact iron is quite heavy, just 30% less heavy than lead, so the advantage of a lead keel is often overstated. As the surface of a fin type keel is just a fraction of the total wet surface, the difference between an iron keel and a lead keel can in reality be ignored for cruising yachts.

The boat can enter even shallow marinas as the draft is just about 1.15 - 1.25 meter (3.77 - 4.07 ft) dependent on the load. See immersion rate below.

Maxi 77 is typically equipped with an inboard Volvo Penta MD5A diesel engine at 7.0 hp (5 kW), which gives a max speed about 4.4 knots.

The transmission is a saildrive.

Sailing characteristics

This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.

What is Capsize Screening Formula (CSF)?

The capsize screening value for Maxi 77 is 2.00, indicating that this boat would not be accepted to participate in ocean races.

What is Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed?

The theoretical maximal speed of a displacement boat of this length is 6.3 knots. The term "Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed" is widely used even though a boat can sail faster. The term shall be interpreted as above the theoretical speed a great additional power is necessary for a small gain in speed.

The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for Maxi 77 is about 113 kg/cm, alternatively 633 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 113 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 633 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.

Sailing statistics

This section is statistical comparison with similar boats of the same category. The basis of the following statistical computations is our unique database with more than 26,000 different boat types and 350,000 data points.

Maintenance

When buying anti-fouling bottom paint, it's nice to know how much to buy. The surface of the wet bottom is about 18m 2 (193 ft 2 ). Based on this, your favourite maritime shop can tell you the quantity you need.

There was a long initial list and after sailing some of the candidates and reading about them all, it's come down to two. They're both Swedish but I have found ample information on the Alvin Vega and much much less on the 77. I'm hoping to use it for cruising in the , with its short wave and often choppy seas thus the thread title. Any views from experience with this sailboat are very welcome. Thank you. 11-08-2016, 09:51   Boat: Grand Soleil 52 to Skagen in . We were the smallest sailboat participating. The came up during the evening, blowing full gale from Skagen all night. Obviously it was a bumpy ride but we where at no point thinking about cancelling the . Big was our surprise when we entered the harbour in Skagen and there was a line of people wanting to congratulate us that we where still alive. It appeared that 1/3 of the fleet had cancelled and either sailed back to or found shelter in , included one which was more than 50 feet (don't remember the brand). One of the big told that the Owner had been floating around in the all night and it had been a near death experience for him. In the bar in the evening, I heard somebody talking about us, he had bet some that he would never see us again, haha! Well anyway, we thought it was a good . We were 4 young guys, well prepared with sailing experience and good sailing . The was completely dry inside and felt very safe. But please note that this was not a full storm. A full storm in the can be a bit nasty and the best is to seek shelter with a like that. 11-08-2016, 11:22   11-08-2016, 11:42   Boat: Grand Soleil 52 68, not sure if it was published in . Use translate for this: "Vinteren 1979 seilte tre unge nordmenn fra Lisboa over til De vestindiske øyer i en 22-fot stor (!) seilbåt, «Ormen Stutte». Etter et par måneders seilas rundt i Det karibiske hav dro skippern, Fredrik E. Lange-Nielsen alene hjem over Atlanteren. Han har skrevet en både festlig og interessant beretning om turen, og boken inneholder mange opplysninger som viser hvor langt man kan komme med en liten båt i den store verden." My friend who owned the Maxi 77 lived in it for three years while we where studying. 11-08-2016, 14:05   Boat: a sailing boat designed for protected waters (which can be somewhat lumpy in Scandinavia, even in the summer). And so you should be quite happy sailing one in the summer, in the Med. Note all 77 are old boats and you will want to check all relevant areas and replace all critical elements before heading into any serious blow, esp. so if the boat spent any extended time in any marina in the Med. Our friend four boats away is exactly this. So if you need any more detailed data, ask and I will try to look at the details. PS They have pretty nice interiors but you will likely start with new windows - on his boat they are old ;-( Cheers, b. 12-08-2016, 06:27   in or will have definitely spent quite some time in . I can do most of the myself but it's the and especially the hull-keel joint that worries me most and which I am getting a for. Interior-wise, I could do with unblocked to the forward , but not at the expense of insufficient support. I suppose living with permanent pole-dancing infrastructure, is something one can get used to.☺ Thank you! 12-08-2016, 06:50   in or will have definitely spent quite some time in .

I can do most of the rigging work myself but it's the hull and especially the hull-keel joint that worries me most and which I am getting a surveyor for. Interior-wise, I could do with unblocked passage to the forward cabin, but not at the expense of insufficient mast support. I suppose living with permanent pole-dancing infrastructure, is something one can get used to.☺ Thank you! 12-08-2016, 08:54   joint is just that. If it looks wobbly, you simply do not buy the boat. If it looks perfect, it may be fine. Inspect in and out (on dry). Clean bolts, no rust and no wet line as the boat is drying are all good indicators. With the boat still in the sling come very close up and look from all angles - there should be zero deflection in the area. Pole dancing is the preferred method and any new partner you may have will have to get used to. It is better than so many other small Scandinavian boats that are known for soggy decks and open center. Keep the pole, get good stereo for the pole dancing parties ;-) BTW With the rudder designed as is, make sure you make a very very thorough check of the rudder and the adjacent fittings. I have seen a H26 going out to Madeira and returning back home (Canary Islands) once theirs developed an issue half way into the passage. Probably something one can avoid with timely (-s). And the last thing is the saildrive. I am not sure they all have saildrives but I think my neighbour does. These are best serviced on dry, so whatever goes it goes, replace anything iffy and make sure the drive is perfect before you go sailing. Otherwise people at times run into situations that a boat has to be lifted while not every harbour has a and a . So avoid any possible trouble there by making the saildrive like new before you go sailing. Have fun, b. 12-08-2016, 09:07   Boat: a sailing boat . I think maybe it was an option like with early Marieholm 26. Flat transom, good access, very easy to fit and use an outboard. b. 12-08-2016, 09:21   12-08-2016, 14:49   Boat: Grinde 27' and the boat handled it with no problems. Love the Scandanavian boats. Now sailing a Danish Grinde. 12-08-2016, 15:24   Boat: a sailing boat created two or three similar boats: I have seen a Kaskelot up close. C R E A M I have seen a Grinde go out to the West Indies too. Cheers, b. 12-08-2016, 23:11   13-08-2016, 04:26   . The weight issue and the way it affects how the boat sits compared to an inboard is a good point. Maybe install a tank in its place to compensate? Just thinking... Thanks for the input guys.
