Smeraldo 8

Expertly maintained by an enthusiast owner, this 1993 Apreamare Smeraldo 8 represents a refined example of the classic Italian gozzo. Measuring 8.05 meters in length with a beam of 2.85 meters, this vessel offers a stable and comfortable platform for up to 8 passengers, with one cabin and one head. The boat has been consistently stored out of the water from September to April, preserving its fiberglass hull condition. Power is provided by a single 140 HP VM Motori turbo diesel inboard engine, which underwent a complete overhaul in 2022, including the total disassembly and painting of the engine and transmission. Further mechanical updates include a 2025 installation of a new water pump and autoclave, as well as a 2024 service of the shaft, propeller, and thru-hull cooling valves. The boat features a bow thruster, Webasto heating, and a full set of covers for operational convenience. This gozzo benefits from a rigorous maintenance schedule. The mahogany gunwales are refinished every two years, with the hull receiving a professional polish in 2025. Significant preventative work was completed in 2019, consisting of hull sandblasting and an anti-osmosis treatment. The fuel tanks were also cleaned and repainted during the 2022 refit, ensuring reliability for the season. VAT is paid on this vessel. It is currently lying in the Veneto region, Italy.
