Description
Polarfuchs – Historic Icebreaker (1957)
Built in 1957 by the renowned German shipyard J.G. Hitzler, the Polarfuchs represents an authentic vintage workboat, with a strong character and extremely robust construction. Originally designed as an icebreaker and service vessel for operations in the North Sea, this boat today embodies a rare opportunity for those wishing to own a piece of naval history or develop a custom Explorer Yacht conversion project.
With a length of about 32 meters, a width of 8 meters, and a draft of about 3.5 meters, the Polarfuchs features an extremely solid steel hull and a reinforced bow designed for operations in challenging conditions. The displacement is approximately 350 tons, while the maximum speed reaches about 16 knots, with a cruising speed around 12 knots.
The vessel is equipped with an Alpha/MAN V10 turbo engine of about 1700 HP, installed in the 1980s, which currently operates optimally. The propulsion is complemented by a variable pitch four-blade propeller, a typical solution for operational units designed for precise maneuvers and great reliability.
The boat is currently located in Lavagna (Italy). The previous owner had initiated a refitting and interior renewal project, which was subsequently interrupted: this makes the Polarfuchs an ideal base for a total customization project, perfect for those wishing to develop a unique explorer yacht, with a completely tailored layout and style.
The original onboard instrumentation package is also available, ready to be reinstalled. The systems are to be completed, thus offering maximum design freedom for the future owner or investor.
Thanks to its extremely robust structure and strong historical value, the Polarfuchs represents an extraordinary project for enthusiasts, collectors, or for those wishing to create an Explorer Yacht with an authentic and unique character.
The vessel is offered for sale “as is, where is”.
