JOUËT 1280 – KETCH – 1985

French flag

Asking price: 44,000 EUR
Available immediately – Martinique

A characterful, well-maintained sailing yacht, ready for new adventures.

This 1985 Jouët 1280 is an attractive sailing yacht for cruising enthusiasts and long-distance sailors looking for a vessel offering generous accommodation, genuine sailing capabilities and excellent potential for comfortable life aboard.

Its ketch rig, featuring two masts, gives the yacht an elegant profile and a particularly versatile sail plan. This configuration allows for a balanced distribution of sail area and provides greater flexibility when handling the sails, especially on longer offshore passages.

One of the yacht’s main assets is its excellent accommodation. Generous interior volumes provide a comfortable living space, perfectly suited to extended cruises and liveaboard projects.

On deck, the particularly wide deck layout offers comfortable circulation as well as great working and manoeuvring areas. A design that lets you fully enjoy sailing as well as time at anchor or in port.

Another interesting feature is the dual helm station arrangement, offering different steering and handling possibilities depending on sailing conditions and the crew’s preferences.

Helm control is hydraulic, providing comfort and smooth handling.

Regular maintenance and a well-proven engine

The boat has benefited from ongoing general maintenance and good overall condition, both in terms of the whole vessel and its engine.

It is powered by an 82 HP Perkins engine, totaling 4,740 hours of operation. The engine is reported to be in good general condition, providing reassurance for future owners looking to embark on new cruising plans.
