2008 Bondway EX-11 - USD 650,000

With more than 2,000 square feet of modern comfort, this mint condition, 60ft BONDWAY, is currently berthed in Langkawi. Very well maintained and was updated by the current owners. DANNEBROG has vast amounts of living space and benefits from the "wedding cake" design, three levels of silver-tinted panoramic windows guaranteeing great views while protecting the interiors from heat and direct sunlight. Typically, a much larger vessel would be needed to achieve this much interior space. This model was designed for the Hong Kong market to provide a home on the water in an exclusive upmarket marina. The majority of the owners were Cathay Pacific pilots and their families. This particular boat was owned by a Danish family and custom built for them. DANNEBROG is the name of the Danish Flag.

The vessel came to life in 2008 and was a home for the first owners in Hong Kong for ten years.  The vessel was shipped to Phuket and the present owners took ownership in 2019 and steamed down to Langkawi where the vessel is now berthed for an excellent business opportunity.

Only regretfully for sale the vessel lends herself so well to Airbnb here in the Royal Langkawi Yacht Club, Kuah.  The layout offers one private level for up to five guests whilst retaining a private suite for the owners.  The guests' level is private, comprising 3 bedrooms, sitting room and full bathroom.  The private sitting room has TV, Wifi, refrigerator and expresso machine. The BBQ deck, dining room, kitchen, lounge saloon and deck are shared with the owners.

A buyer may promote the business, enjoy good income, and be living aboard concurrently here in Langkawi or re locate for the same.

Recent upgrades:

The current owners purchased Dannebrog in Thailand with the intention of relocating it to Langkawi. In preparation for the voyage the following upgrades were completed.

• Original 450mm propellor was upgraded to 770mm – resulting in greater fuel economy at slow revs.
• Windlass was added and new 52kg Stainless Steel Anchor, 10mm chain and rope
• Ballast was originally 500 clay bricks, these were removed and 1000kg of sandbags (triple bagged) were used. Most are in the bow with others at the stern above the propeller shaft.
• A stability test was completed after the addition of the extra ballast. The result showed that approx.. 19.5 people at average 90 kg each could be on one side of the top deck before exceeding the safety limit. The vessel is registered for 12 people.
• The black water system was upgraded to make it relatively foolproof. An additional pump was added to service the two black water tanks. Switching is installed to prepare for either pump out or open valve.
• A swim and safety ladder was installed to the stern allowing access from the water to the salon deck.
• A large compass was purchased for the helm station – not permanently installed but can be if required
• A Garmin FF550 Depth Sounder and GPS Chart Plotter was fitted. This model connects to AIS (not fitted).
• The rudder and controls were refurbished

On arrival in Langkawi a number of upgrades and maintenance tasks were undertaken to complete the refurbishment.

• All 102 small downlights and some of the cupboard downlights were changed to LED's.
• Stair Lights were changed to blue LED's
• The Beef Eater gas BBQ was upgraded to have piped LPG from the cylinder storage
• The teak deck on and around the bow was removed and reworked in fibreglass. This saves on future maintenance.
• All the hardware on the concertina glass doors were changed
• Most of the hinges on the galley doors and some cupboard doors were upgraded.
• A water filter system was added at the dock, to filter dock water before it enters the boat.
• A quick switch-over system was added to the water filter in the engine room. The main filter is a "whole house" filter, but this can be changed to a 5 micron local filter for changeover or cleaning access.
• The brightwork – rails, entry deck, stairs were sanded and changed to teak oil finish to save on future maintenance (more often but quicker ad no sanding )
• The BBQ area was refurbished and treated with single pack epoxy coating on the floor.
