Nebe Cape 28??

[avb3]

I'm in there process of looking for a boat and ran across a Nebe Cape 28.

There is very little about them I could find but what I did find was positive in that they are considered well built and very sea worthy.

They appear to be in a similar class as an Albin Vega, but cost significantly more. They have a somewhat unusual layout in they they is no vberth, instead they have the head in the bow.

Can anyone make any comments about these boats or direct me to where I can find out more about them?

Thanks kindly.

The boat you are referenceing is not a 28 but a 25D not a 25 which is what I own and very different than a 25D

They are great looking boats. It's really too bad there's not more info on them, but it looks like fsailing35 might be a good resource.

they are great boats, very well built. basically a day sailer built for sailing the south africa coast with 25 knt winds . here in the usa she is a great pocket cruiser
that can take you any where you want to go safely. cheers

That cape 28 is a good looking cruising boat. Having the whole forward compartment as a head/sail-locker makes a lot of sense on a cruising boat. A 28 foot boat is not fit for more than 2 people, so why have extra berths that are not usable in any kind of weather? It would probably take you far. ______Grant.

[fsailing35]

yes she would. I have the port settee made into a bed. I sail by my self when I stay out overnight it makes for a very comfortable bunk. sometimes I go down to the slip just to read a book and end up taking a nap just because it is so comfortable. I use the quarter births for life jacks,duffle bags and so on. There is alot storage on her. lockers under every birth a rear locker on the stern lockers in the bow no problem with storage. cheers

the owner before me has sailed surprise from africa to the usa back to africa and then back to the usa. surprise has been there and done that. cheers

yes she was listed on sailing texas web site and is
on sailnet.com I mostly get people fishing or not willing to pay what I am asking. I have her listed for 17000.00 and not a penny less for what she has on her and the quality of the boat its a steal at that price. at least I think so any way if she sells then she sells if she does not that is ok too. she is prime for selling and I am not using her as much as I use to so its time for her to go to a new home where she will be loved and taken care of cheers
