Buying a used More: a young, single-designer brand with an unusually low-risk ownership change

A used More is, by brand history, a young boat — the yard built its first hull in 2015, and its current model range only took its present shape in the years since. That youth cuts a specific way for a used buyer: there's no multi-decade backstory of design pivots or shifting construction eras to weigh, only one design partnership, with Cossutti Yacht Design, that has held since the very first boat. The one real discontinuity in the brand's short history is a 2026 change in ownership, following a period of insolvency and restructuring — but as the era guidance below lays out, that transition carries less construction risk than an outside ownership change normally would.

Which era to target

The range doesn't split into old-versus-new design generations the way older brands do — one design partnership has run the whole way from the More 55's debut through the current lineup. The real boundary is the 2026 ownership change: boats built under founder Einar Haldin's original company, and boats built after Davor Paić took over. On paper that reads like the kind of transition that should worry a used buyer — a company that went through insolvency, then changed hands. In practice, the person actually laying up the hulls didn't change at that transition: Paić's own company, MCP, had already been building the yard's hulls for years before he bought the business outright, and Giornale della Vela's coverage of the takeover described the same vacuum-infusion, vinylester-resin construction approach continuing afterward, on what that coverage called a rock-solid financial foundation. A buyer should weigh a pre- and post-2026 hull more on individual condition and paperwork than on any expected gap in build quality between them.

Navigating the lineup

The lineup spans from the 40 up to the 58, anchored at the top by the 55 that started the yard — the design Cossutti drew with modern TP52 racers in mind, and still the range's most performance-oriented model. Below it, later additions filled the range out by size and power: a 50, an electric-powered 50, and the smaller 40, held to the same construction approach as the 55. A buyer chasing the racing pedigree that defines the brand should look toward the 55; a buyer wanting the same build approach in a smaller, easier-to-handle package has the 40 or 50 to start from — the full model directory on this page breaks out the rest.
