Amel Sharki 39 - Located Brisbane

UPDATED: Vessel can be viewed by appointment at Raby Bay in Brisbane.

Renowned as some of the world's most respected cruising yachts, Amel's are instantly recognisable and have earned a solid reputation for safety and seaworthiness. They sail well, with 'Mischa', a 39-foot Sharki, loving nothing more than to hum along at 7 to 8 knots in 15 to 20 knots of breeze.

Australian-registered as 'Damischa Ridda', the boat is currently in Brisbane.

The design is renowned for its safety, comfort, and suitability for long passage-making. It's a world-class vessel, known for its design and build quality, and is highly respected amongst the cruising fraternity.

Mischa holds 750 litres of water and 340 litres of diesel, and is set up for complete self-sufficiency and off-grid exploration. A Starlink Mini is installed to support remote work & comms.

The Sharki features a secure cockpit that withstands all weather conditions, so you don't need wet-weather gear.

Mischa has an inspiring history, having travelled around the world 1.5 times and cruised to some of the most exotic locations.

The current owners have spent the 2026 winter sailing from Sydney to North Queensland and back, and the previous owners sailed her from Pittwater to Port Davey in Tasmania four times.

The moulded keel - fully integrated with no keel bolts to worry about - and single-skin GRP hull, as well as a strong skeg-hung rudder, mean longevity and integrity over years of use. There's no osmosis and never has been.

The ketch rig and furling mainsail and headsail make sail handling manageable and light. The rigging was replaced and is current for insurance purposes.

The sail wardrobe includes a near-new furling headsail and excellent mainsail and mizzen as well as assorted sails for all conditions.

An excellent maintenance history shows a steady injection of funds, including recent anchor chain, current rigging, TruDesign through-hull fittings and seacocks all replaced, new deck paint, new house and starter batteries, and new engine control Morse cables. The exterior of the boat is perfectly presentable, but there are a few signs of use and age - nothing some sanding, buffing or fresh paint won't fix.

The powerful Iveco Lombardini diesel engine was new in 2006 and has been well maintained. She's had recent oil changes (engine and ZF gearbox), diesel delivery hoses and 2 new coolant hoses. A garage full of spares is included, and the motor runs well. Engine access is generous with cokpit access from above plus a side hatch.

The vessel's interior is warm, inviting, and full of character. The cabin layout features an aft queen (with a near-new mattress topper) and a forward double. There's also a sea berth amidships, and a port sette should a shorter berth be required. There's a generous head to port, a large storage cupboard to starboard, and an east/west galley in the main saloon. It has a thoughtful layout and very generous storage space and tankage.

The walkthrough to the aft cabin is set up as a workshop, with spares, supplies and consumables filling the shelves and storage nooks.

A full inventory in PDF form is available via email, as is a copy of the most recent survey conducted in January 2026. She is comprehensively insured with Club Marine ( $2400 p/a ).

Excellent buying for this hard-to-find and sought-after Amel Sharki. The vessel is strong, safe, comfortable and ready to continue cruising in any ocean - just point her, set the right amount of sail, and she'll safely take you anywhere.

Currently cruising south from Brisbane, the GC and on to Pittwater. Just message for the latest location and any questions.
