Experience the legacy of the sea with the Antarès, a 1945 Brauer-Bützfleth Goélette Aurique. Originally built in Hamburg for deep-sea fishing, this 19.9-meter vessel has transitioned through a storied life as an educational ship and a private yacht. Recognized as a vessel of heritage interest (BIP), she has undergone extensive hull and structural restorations between 1990 and 2024 to ensure her longevity and performance under sail.
Designed for those who appreciate authentic craftsmanship, the interior features rich mahogany and oak finishes, transforming the space into a true 70m² apartment. She accommodates owners and guests across six cabins, including a large forward cabin and a master suite. The layout is optimized for long-term living, complete with a high-square galley, a full bathroom with a bathtub, and modern amenities such as a dishwasher, microwave, and central heating powered by a Mikuni diesel boiler.
Powering this vessel is a 125HP 6-cylinder Scania Vabis D8 R40 engine, supplemented by a 28HP Beta Marine unit for the hydraulic system. For independent sailing, she features a comprehensive sail inventory, including an 80m² mainsail and various polyster jibs and staysails, all maintained by the Atelier des Voiles. The vessel is equipped with a 4kW Panda 4000i generator, ensuring 220V power throughout.
This used boat is perfectly suited for enthusiasts of classic maritime history who desire the comfort of a modern floating home. With a massive 80m² open deck space—capable of hosting a jacuzzi—and stable, comfortable handling under sail, she is ideal for extended coastal cruising or as a unique residence. Safety is paramount, featuring redundant bilge pumps, fire suppression systems, and equipment for offshore navigation.
Lying in Marseille, France, this exceptional gaff schooner is available for viewing by appointment. The vessel is offered at 350.000 EUR with VAT paid.
