Scandinavia 27 Buyer's Guide
The Scandinavia 27 is a modern 27-foot cruiser designed by Wojciech Spisak and built by Scandinavia Yachts from 2016, aimed at sailors who split time between inland waters and the coast. Its wide beam, deep cockpit, and eight-berth interior make it a practical used buy for families or clubs, but a careful viewing still hinges on the boat's known construction and rig details.
Layouts on the Used Market
Used examples follow the builder's stated arrangement: a main saloon with a large table for eight, a fully equipped galley, and a separate toilet compartment, with sleeping for 6–8 people across 5+1 berths and 1.78 m headroom. The wide hull and high sides produce a roomy cabin for the length, and the CE B/C rating confirms the inland-and-coastal intent rather than bluewater use.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
The available qualitative tiers record no commonly fitted, often seen, or owner-upgrade equipment for this model, so buyers should assess each boat on its own fitted gear. The builder specifies an outboard of 5–10 HP or an optional 12 HP stationary engine, a 67 L water tank, and a fractional rig with 328 sq ft of sail. Any navigation, canvas, or energy upgrades should be judged on condition rather than assumed prevalence.
What to Inspect
A buyer's inspection should focus on standard used-boat checks: confirm the solid fibreglass hull and fin keel show no impact damage, verify the transom-hung rudder bearing is free, and test the outboard or inboard engine as fitted. The wide and deep cockpit should be examined for gelcoat crazing and drainage function, and the standing rigging should match the specified 10 mm sheet diameters.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
The typical markets for the Scandinavia 27 are Germany and the Netherlands.
- Confirm hull and keel are free of impact damage
