Specifications
Comet 910 – Classic Sailboat with Thoughtful Design and Functional Equipment
The Comet 910 is an Italian-made sailboat, built in 1977 by the renowned shipyard Comar Yachts. The design is by Van de Stadt in collaboration with Groupe Finot, two names known for their seaworthy and functional yacht designs. With a length of 9.10 meters, a width of 3.06 meters, and a draft of 1.70 meters, this vessel offers a balanced combination of stability, maneuverability, and comfort on board.
Hull and Construction
The hull of the Comet 910 is made of fiberglass-reinforced polyester (GRP) with a round bilge shape, which contributes to the sailing characteristics and comfort on open water. The fixed fin keel and skeg-mounted rudder ensure a stable course and good control, even at higher speeds or when sailing upwind. The hull is white with red striping, giving the ship a recognizable and classic appearance. The superstructure shows signs of aging and would benefit from a new coat of paint.
Interior and Layout
Inside, the Comet 910 offers a practical and classic layout with a wooden interior. The headroom is 1.80 meters, providing sufficient freedom of movement for most occupants. In the forepeak, there is a V-berth, while the salon features a U-shaped seating area that can be converted into additional sleeping places. At the back, there is a separate sleeping area, bringing the total to four fixed berths and two extras.
The galley is equipped with a stove, sink, and ample cupboard space. The wet cell has a manual toilet and a washbasin. The toilet discharge is directly connected to the outside water. For comfort on cooler days, there is a heater on board.
Sail Plan and Rigging
The Comet 910 is masthead sloop-rigged and features an aluminum mast. The sail plan consists of a mainsail, genoa, storm jib, and spinnaker. The genoa is equipped with a furling system and dates from 2019. The halyards and sheets are mostly led to the cockpit, making the ship suitable for solo or shorthanded sailing.
Engine and Technology
Propulsion is provided by a Solé Mini 17 diesel engine with a power of 17 hp. This two-cylinder inboard engine is electrically started and dates from 1988. In 2024, the engine received maintenance, including the replacement of the impeller, filters, and oil. The fuel tank has a capacity of approximately 35 liters, with an average consumption of about 1 liter per hour. The cruising speed is around 12 km/h, with a maximum speed of approximately 14.4 km/h.
Electronics and Power Supply
On board, there are two batteries with a total capacity of 225 Ah. The electrical installation includes a battery charger, inverter, shore power connection, and voltmeter. Navigation equipment includes a chart plotter, depth meter, wind meter, speedometer, compass, and autopilot. The navigation lights are present and functional.
Equipment and Safety
The deck equipment consists of a cockpit table, swim ladder, fenders, lines, and a guardrail. An anchor with chain and line is present, although a windlass is missing. The cockpit is self-draining, and an electric bilge pump is installed. A dinghy or trailer is not included.
Documentation and Maintenance
Various documents are provided with the ship, including invoices for modifications and maintenance, design drawings, and manuals. The boat was out of the water for maintenance in 2024 and was also given a new layer of antifouling. No signs of osmosis were detected.
Suitability and Sailing Area
The Comet 910 is suitable for both inland and coastal waters. Thanks to its stable sailing characteristics and thoughtful sail plan, the ship is suitable for day trips, weekend trips, and longer voyages with a small crew. The low maneuvering speed and fine behavior upwind make it a pleasant ship to sail, even under changing conditions.
Summary
The Comet 910 is a solidly built sailboat with functional equipment and a classic interior. The ship is designed for sailors who value seaworthiness, ease of operation, and a practical layout. With recent technical updates and a solid foundation, this yacht offers opportunities for both novice and experienced sailors looking for a vessel for recreational use on inland and coastal waters.
