RM 1060 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the used RM 1060 means looking at a Marc Lombard-designed 35-foot cruiser built around a resin-infused plywood hull, GRP deck, twin keels, and a cutter rig. These boats were produced from 2008 onward as a sporty, bright, easily maintained design that can dry out upright, and the best examples on the brokerage market reflect that original brief rather than heavy modification.
Layouts on the Used Market
The 1060's interior is an open-plan, light-filled space with four berths in the saloon and a Breton berth forward. Buyers should expect the aft cabin and heads to be compact, but the galley and chart table are sized for serious use. The open saloon gives a feeling of volume unusual for the length, so judge the boat on its working stations and social space rather than private cabin count.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
On the used market, heating and hot water are commonly fitted for shoulder-season comfort, and solar is a common addition for at-anchor power. For sail handling, a gennaker or asymmetric spinnaker with an optional bowsprit builds on the factory twin-forestay cutter rig for shorthanded sailing, while a bimini and dodger are commonly found for cockpit shelter. Autopilot and life raft are common safety and handling fittings. A buyer gains the most from the energy and sail-handling clusters: solar paired with heating extends the season, and the offwind sails turn the flexible rig into a true short-handed cruiser.
What to Inspect
The defining construction point is the resin-infused plywood hull with a GRP deck that resin-and-glass build. Because the boat dries out without legs, inspect the twin keels and hull grounding surfaces for impact or wear. Confirm the GRP deck is sound and the twin forestays and optional bowsprit rigging are intact, since the flexible sailplan depends on them.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
RM 1060s typically appear in France and Italy. For a buyer, the checklist is simple: verify the plywood hull and deck condition, confirm the twin-keel grounding surfaces are clean, and prefer a boat with solar, heating, offwind sails, and cockpit canvas already fitted.
- Inspect resin-infused plywood hull and GRP deck for soundness
- Check twin keels and hull for grounding wear
- Confirm cutter rig twin forestays and optional bowsprit intact
- Favor examples with solar, heating, gennaker/asymmetric, bimini/dodger, autopilot
