On the live Maxi 108 card the chips already keep years 1979-1984, LOA 10.75 m and beam 3.4 m, yet the overview writes length 10.8 m, beam 3.46 m and weight about 5,616 kg, while design history jumps to 1990-2005 and roughly 440-620 hulls. The Pelle Petterson plate holds beam 3.40 m, displacement about 6,500 kg, LWL 9.12 m and about 200 boats for 1979-1984. While history and the light overview fight the chips and the plate, you are not yet reading a consistent 108.

The boat is a Swedish masthead fin-and-spade centre-cockpit cruiser from the Petterson era: draft about 1.75 m, ballast about 2,500 kg. Keep the chip years; drop false 1990-2005 and the 440-620 census. No entry price here. Do not rewrite maxi77 / maxi84 / maxi95 in this pass.

Brochure numbers need matching units. Open a FairHelm formula page for the classical form, rule of thumb, and limits before you compare listings.

Design history

On survey, read the keel and bolts, spade rudder, moisture at stanchions and mast step, standing-rigging age from invoices, and saildrive/engine service - the live checklist is already close.

Typical problems

Close live history 1990-2005 / census ~440-620 and overview 3.46 / ~5,616 against the plate Petterson / 1979-1984 / ~200 / 3.40 / ~6,500 / LWL 9.12.

Annual ownership costs

Read annual SEK bands as a berth class near 10.8 m, not a yard offer. No entry price here.

Calculators for this boat

Indicative figure for weekend use. The country supplies berth and winter. The insurance line stays the Swedish planning band - not a Danish, German, or Dutch premium. Maintenance stays Swedish too. Not a marina quote.

  • Netherlands (annual contract)€4,480 - €7,571
  • Sweden (planning bands)€6,000 - €10,300
  • Denmark (two harbours, season)€4,590 - €7,497

Antifouling

Litres need waterline length and draft. This page only has length overall and beam, so litres are not calculated here.

Pre-purchase survey checklist

Nearby allow-list holes still include omega34 and maxi999. Do not clone their angles here: first fix years, census and weight to the 108 plate.
