Specifications
The Portier Holiday from 1955 is a characterful, shipyard-built speed cruiser with a rich history. This classic motorboat was crafted at the renowned F. Portier shipyard in Switzerland, a builder known for its artisanal wood constructions and timeless designs. With a length of 7.00 meters and a width of 2.25 meters, this boat offers a compact yet functional layout, suitable for various forms of recreational use on inland waters.
Classic Design and Wooden Construction
The hull of the Portier Holiday is made of wood and features a chine hull shape, which contributes to the boat's stability and handling. The wooden construction gives the boat an authentic appearance that will certainly appeal to enthusiasts of classic vessels. The clearance height is 1.75 meters, making the boat suitable for use on canals, ditches, and other inland waters with low bridges. The draft is limited to 28 cm, allowing for navigation in shallower waters.
Interior and Comfort
Inside, the Portier Holiday offers a headroom of 1.50 meters and two fixed berths, making the boat suitable for short overnight stays or weekend trips. The accommodation is equipped with a refrigerator and a stove, providing the basic amenities for a comfortable stay on board. Outside, the boat is equipped with a cockpit table, outdoor deck sails, and comfortable outdoor deck cushions, making the stay on deck pleasant during sunny days on the water.
Motorization and Performance
The Portier Holiday is equipped with a Volvo Penta AQ 115A/100 inboard gasoline engine with a power of 100 hp. This four-cylinder engine is electrically started and provides enough power to reach a top speed of approximately 55 km/h. This makes the boat suitable for sporty sailing and quick trips over lakes and rivers. The engine is operational and supported by two batteries and a 12V electrical system. Onboard instruments include a fuel tank gauge and a tachometer, as well as a compass for basic navigation.
Suitable for Various Sailing Areas
The Portier Holiday has been primarily used on inland waters, including canals, ditches, lakes, ponds, and rivers. Thanks to the combination of a low clearance height and shallow draft, the boat is highly versatile. The boat is ideally suited for day trips, pleasure cruising, sporty sailing, and short weekend trips. The available equipment and engine performance make it possible to cruise leisurely or sail at higher speeds.
Special Features
What sets this Portier Holiday apart is the unique character of its design and construction. As a shipyard-built speed cruiser from the mid-20th century, this boat represents a piece of nautical heritage. The classic lines, wooden finish, and sporty performance make it a striking presence on the water. The boat is not registered, but the VAT has been paid. There is one anchor present, secured with a line.
