LM Mermaid 270

LM, årg. 1985, skrogmateriale Glasfiber-armeret plast, Diesel, hjemhavn Ebeltoft, After six good years, we are selling Fru Jensen to upgrade to a larger boat. It's a well-sailing and reliable boat that has given us many great experiences.
The boat is sold launched, rigged and ready for new adventures.
Mrs. Jensen is from 1985 and has had one owner before us. She was taken over by us in 2019 and as the previous owner, we have continuously maintained and updated the boat. Among other things, new navigation equipment, new composite sea valves, new propeller and propeller shaft have been installed. The engine is continuously serviced.
See the equipment list for details and year of updates.
The boat has sailed in Aarhus Bay, Lillebælt and the South Funen Archipelago and is ideal for both beginners and more experienced sailors. The boat's shallow draught makes it perfect for coastal sailing and can enter even the smallest harbors.
The boat has a fixed hard Plexiglas windshield for good visibility. The tiller steering gives you a good feel for the boat while sailing and the tiller can be tilted up so it doesn't take up space in the cockpit when in port.
All halyards and sheets can be operated from the cockpit and the furling forestay makes it easy to set and retrieve the headsail.
In the cockpit you can also set up a table to comfortably enjoy lunch in port or at anchor. If there's a shower, the cockpit tent gives you the opportunity to take shelter and enjoy the drumming of the rain. If it gets chilly, that's not a problem either, as the oil heater quickly provides plenty of warmth in the cabin.
The modern navigation instruments make it easy to navigate safely and keep an eye on wind and water depth.
The network between the instruments allows the chartplotter to also display wind and depth data, so you have all relevant data in one place.
The AIS transceiver (transmitter and receiver) allows you to see nearby ships on the chartplotter and, not least, be seen by them. An important factor that you will quickly appreciate when crossing busy shipping lanes with commercial traffic.
And finally: If you need a break from the helm, the self-steering system can do the job.
