Frans Maas 49 Motor Sailor "Ulysse" for sale

Ulysse is a remarkable, strong ocean-going motor sailor built by the prestigious Dutch Frans Maas yard in Breskens, The Netherlands, and presented in very well-maintained condition throughout.

This elegant gentleman’s yacht was custom built for her first and very experienced Belgian owner in 1965 and has been continuously skipper-maintained since.

She underwent a major rebuilt at the Frans Maas yard from 1990 to 1996 including a re-shaped keel for improved performance, new coachroof and doghouse, complete interior refit, all new electric wiring, teak decks, new rigging, bowsprit and much more.

The current (second) Belgian owner purchased Ulysse in 2011 and had her skipper-maintained as well since.

Under his ownership various upgrades were done in 2012, 2018 and 2023 including a new Volvo Penta D3-150hp engine in 2018, Lewmar electric winches, new Raymarine instruments, various new sails in 2022/’23, stern thruster and more.

Ulysse is a lovely classic yacht breathing pure character and nostalgia. Built like a rock and extensively upgraded she is ideal for live-aboard and long-distance ocean voyages in safety and comfort.

She will spend the coming winter inside the boatyard in Breskens, The Netherlands, and viewing are most encouraged.
