Comar Comet 910 Buyer's Guide
Measuring 29.86 feet on the waterline-deck span, the Comar Comet 910 is a fin-keel sloop designed by Groupe Finot in 1971 and built by Comar Yachts, with several hundred produced. On the used market she appears as a compact cruiser-racer whose early-seventies lineage and moderate draft still suit Mediterranean and northern European waters. Buyers will find a boat of simple systems and traditional layout rather than a modern volume cruiser.
Layouts on the Used Market
Owner three-cabin layouts are the more common on the used market, but both configurations are available, and ex-charter examples are common. The boat carries six berths within her 9.86-foot beam, and the fin keel with 5.58–5.88 foot draft depending on load keeps her access open to most marinas. A shopper should expect the tighter interior volume of a 2.97 length-to-beam hull rather than the open plans of later cruisers.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Autopilots, chartplotters, and heating are commonly fitted to Comet 910s offered today, which means a buyer can expect basic navigation and cold-weather comfort as standard brokerage equipment. Solar panels and life rafts are often seen, speaking to owners who equipped for extended coastal or offshore use. Less common owner additions include air conditioning, inverters, freezers, swim platforms, dinghy davits, cockpit showers, radar, and EPIRBs — these appear as occasional upgrades rather than market norms and should be evaluated individually for condition and installation quality.
What to Inspect
The keel is iron rather than lead, so any used Comet 910 should be checked for external keel corrosion and the integrity of the keel-to-hull joint on a 32 percent ballast-ratio fin configuration anchor. The hull is solid fibreglass with a wetted surface near 301 square feet, and the immersion rate of about 1,044 pounds per inch means load-bearing structure should be reviewed for stress under cruising weight.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
Comet 910s are typically found in Italy, Germany, Greece, the United Kingdom, Montenegro, and the Netherlands. For a shopper, the takeaway is straightforward: confirm keel condition, verify the installed heating and navigation kit, and accept the narrow early-seventies hull as the boat's defining character.
- Inspect iron keel for corrosion and joint integrity
- Confirm autopilot, chartplotter, heating function as fitted
- Expect owner three-cabin layout as most common; ex-charter common
- Budget for solar or life raft as frequent but not universal additions
