Pieter Beeldsnijder Gouwzee 1977 – Classic Steel Sailing Ship with Character
General Overview of the Ship
The Pieter Beeldsnijder Gouwzee from 1977 is a steel sailing ship with a length of 9 meters and a width of 2.65 meters. The ship is designed with a hard-chine hull and features a tiller steering located outside. The draft is 1.15 meters, making the ship suitable for use on inland waters, lakes, rivers, and canals. The clearance height of 10 meters allows it to pass under most high bridges on inland waters, especially with the ability to lower the mast independently.
Pieter Beeldsnijder Gouwzee now in the online auction. Everyone can bid until March 16, 2026.
Construction and Materials
The hull is entirely made of steel, contributing to the ship's robustness. The masts are made of wood, and the deck is fitted with teak, providing a classic appearance. The boat weighs approximately 4,500 kilograms and is equipped with a self-draining cockpit. The exterior shows rust spots, and the mast needs a new coat of paint. These elements are visible and should be considered when purchasing.
Interior and Living Space
Inside, the Gouwzee offers a standing height of 1.80 meters, providing ample freedom of movement. There are three fixed berths and one additional berth available. The layout includes a dining area and an oven, making the stay on board comfortable for short vacations or weekend trips.
Sailing Equipment and Rigging
The ship is equipped with two masts and three sails: a jib, a genoa, and a mainsail. The condition of the sails is described as reasonable. The sail plan is suitable for novice sailors, partly due to the stable sailing characteristics of the ship. The mast is equipped with a mechanism that allows it to be easily and independently lowered, making the ship suitable for solo sailors or use on waters with low bridges.
Engine and Technical Installation
The Gouwzee is equipped with an inboard diesel engine from the brand Saab, with a power of 10 hp. The engine is electrically started and has one cylinder. The engine is from the same year as the ship (1977) and is reportedly still operational according to the owner. The fuel consumption is around 1.5 liters per hour, with a diesel tank of 45 liters. The cruising speed is approximately 10 kilometers per hour. Electricity on board is supplied via a dynamo and a solar panel, with a 12v and 220v system. There is one battery with a capacity of 100 Ah.
Equipment and Extras
On deck, there is a swim ladder, pulpit and pushpit seats, a guardrail, and two anchors with chain and line. The safety equipment includes a manual bilge pump. Documentation such as the engine manual and a maintenance logbook are available.
Usage and Sailing Experience
The current owner has had the ship for four years and used it regularly for vacations. The boat has mainly been used on inland waters, lakes, rivers, and canals. The owner describes the ship as a friendly sailing vessel that is well-suited for novice sailors. Thanks to the flat foredeck, there is plenty of space available on deck, and the portholes ensure a pleasant temperature in the summer.
History and Special Features
The Gouwzee was designed by the renowned Dutch yacht designer Pieter Beeldsnijder, giving the ship a certain historical value. The current owner indicates that the ship can be moved immediately after purchase.
Conclusion
The Pieter Beeldsnijder Gouwzee from 1977 is a classic steel sailing ship with a functional layout and a characteristic design. Although there are some points of attention on the exterior, the ship offers a solid foundation for sailors looking for a traditional ship with room for personal adjustments. The combination of a working engine, an independently lowerable mast, and a practical layout makes this ship suitable for recreational use on inland waters.
