Esse Sailboats

Esse

Only a few boatyards can genuinely claim to live up to their slogan word for word – Esseboats by Schuchter Sportboot AG certainly pulls it off brilliantly: boats for the perfect sailing moment.

Inland waters and coast

Esseboats builds daysailers that are just as well suited to inland lakes as they are to use along the coast.

Sporty high-end yachts

Maximum sailing fun: with these functionally equipped and beautifully styled boats, the ideal sailing experience – shorthanded or solo, too – is possible in just a few knots of wind. With a carbon racer designed for two-person crews, daysailers in several size classes and a 10-meter weekend cruiser presented in autumn 2019, the Swiss shipyard covers the most important market segments.
Almost all Esse yachts are just as suitable for relaxed day sailing as they are for hard-fought regatta racing. Now found all over the world, the boats already sail their own class regattas and regularly fly the flag in the top ranks at many international regattas.
As daysailers, Esse yachts impress with relaxed handling and plenty of well-thought-out functionality (such as a lifting keel for different drafts). The cruiser scores with particularly easy handling, high ultimate stability, a self-tacking jib and the absence of a backstay.
Esse yachts are fitted either with combustion engines or, optionally, with Torqeedo electric motors.
