The Comet 910 appeared in the early 1970s as a masthead sloop designed by the French naval architecture office Groupe Finot and built by the Italian yard Comar Yachts. Production began in 1971, and several hundred hulls were completed. The boat was a compact example of the Finot designs that defined Comar’s early catalogue, combining a solid fibreglass hull, an iron fin keel, and a modest ballast fraction.

Comet 910 Buyer's Guide

Shopping the brokerage market for a Comet 910 means looking at a Finot-designed masthead sloop built by Comar Yachts, with several hundred hulls completed. She is a 29-foot 10-inch boat with a 22-foot waterline and a 10-foot beam, carrying 395 square feet of sail and an 8,200-pound displacement on a solid fibreglass hull with an iron fin keel drawing about 5.6 feet. The six berths below confirm she was laid out for small-crewed coastal cruising rather than daysailing.

Layouts on the Used Market

Comet 910s on the brokerage market typically present the original six-berth arrangement, with saloon and forward or aft sleeping spaces intact on well-kept examples. A buyer should confirm the berths are usable and the saloon is serviceable, since original fitout wear is expected on a boat of this age.

What to Inspect

The one material concern on this design is the iron keel. Iron keels rust where the protective coating fails, so examine the keel surface for blistering paint, rust streaking, or soft spots at the hull joint. Tap the keel with a hammer and listen for a dull, compromised ring rather than a clean metallic tone, and smell for musty damp at the keel-bolts inside the cabin. A keel with coating loss is a negotiation point, not a walk-away, but untreated corrosion at the hull attachment can mean expensive fairing and re-bedding.

Check the hull for its 301 square feet of wetted surface condition — look along the gelcoat for crazing or impact marks. Confirm the six berths are intact and the saloon layout is serviceable.

Availability and Buyer's Takeaway

  • Inspect iron keel coating and hull joint for rust
  • Tap keel and smell keel-bolt area for damp
  • Verify all six berths present and usable
  • Check gelcoat along wetted surface for damage
