Worth knowing
Aira boats; cover, cost and conditions
Aira Boats is based in Sneek, in the Dutch province of Friesland. Jos Snijders Blok, a former headmaster who wanted a small yard of his own, founded the company in 2015, and the yard in Sneek opened early in 2018. Together with the designer Simonis Voogd he drew the Aira 22 in 2017, meant for sailing schools and just as much for families. The boat made her debut at boot Düsseldorf in 2018. Since then the British firm RS Sailing has taken over building, distribution and marketing. She is easy to spot: a roomy cockpit with cushioned, shaped seats and backrests, a bulb keel and an electric motor that retracts in seven seconds.
Our model records list one design for Aira Boats: the Aira 22, an open sailing boat of 6.50 metres. It appears from build year 2015 and reaches into the most recent build years, so the line is current. The yard rates her for two to six people. RS Sailing gives a GRP hull, a beam of 2.2 metres, an all-up weight of about 750 kilograms and a lifting keel drawing 1.20 metres with 250 kilograms of ballast, with a shorter one-metre keel as an alternative. The electric drive with its retracting leg does away with petrol and a conventional outboard. Lakes and coastal waters are her home, for family sailing, teaching and club racing.
An open daysailer lives an outdoor life, and that shapes the checks on a used Aira 22. Cushions and their sleeves fade and wear in the sun, so their state says a lot about how the boat has been kept. The lifting keel and its mechanism should run smoothly, and the bulb and its fastening deserve a look after a few seasons. The electric drive needs healthy batteries; ask about their age and charging history. Boats used by schools or clubs see more hours and more knocks than family boats, so the gelcoat around the bow and the gunwales tells part of the story.
