Concorde 38 - Refurbished cruising yacht with Torqeedo propulsion

The Concorde 38 is a classic Danish cruising yacht built by the renowned Lillebælt Værft shipyard based on a design by Kjærulff & Jacobsen. The sturdy fiberglass hull, balanced sailing characteristics, and high-quality craftsmanship continue to make this classic yacht a popular choice among discerning cruising sailors to this day.

With a length of 11.50 meters, a width of 2.92 meters, and its high-performance lead keel, the Concorde 38 offers excellent conditions for relaxed coastal cruises as well as for longer voyages on the North Sea and the Baltic Sea.

Visually, the yacht on offer is in good condition, consistent with its age. Technically, it has been continuously modernized and carefully upgraded over many years. Numerous investments in the propulsion system, power supply, rigging, and sailing equipment ensure that the vessel is now in excellent technical condition.

A standout feature is the Torqeedo Cruise 10.0 FP electric drive with a high-performance lithium battery system. Combined with the extensive solar system and state-of-the-art Victron charging technology, the system enables largely self-sufficient and virtually silent onboard operation—a major improvement in comfort both in port and on longer cruises.

The rigging has also been extensively modernized. In 2008, the yacht was fitted with a John Mast featuring a Selden Furlex 200 S furling system, a rod kicker, and new standing rigging. The equipment is complemented by a comprehensive set of sails, including several headsails, mainsails, a spinnaker, and a blister, ensuring that the right sails are available for a wide variety of wind and sailing conditions.

The navigation equipment includes, among other things, a B&G Vulcan 7 chartplotter, Furuno GPS, Nexus instruments, a Raymarine autopilot, as well as VHF radio and AIS. Together with the extensive safety equipment, the yacht provides a solid foundation for relaxed and safe voyages.

Over the past few years, there has been continuous investment in maintaining the ship’s value. In addition to modernizing the rigging, the project included installing an electric propulsion system, expanding the solar power system, replacing the service batteries, and carrying out extensive work on the keel and underwater hull. These investments are documented and underscore the yacht’s careful technical development.

The Concorde 38 is designed for sailors who appreciate the sailing characteristics of a classic Scandinavian cruising yacht but don’t want to sacrifice the benefits of modern propulsion and energy technology. It offers a successful combination of traditional yacht-building quality, state-of-the-art technology, and features that are ideal for both weekend cruises and longer voyages.
