Specifications
Kaagkruiser Super 8.90 from 1958 – Classic Steel Motor Yacht with Modern Technology
This Kaagkruiser Super 8.90 from 1958 is a classic Dutch motor yacht with a rich history and a characteristic design. With a length of 8.90 meters and a width of 2.40 meters, this vessel offers a balanced combination of space, stability, and maneuverability. The hull is entirely made of steel, contributing to the robustness and durability of the vessel. The draft is 1.10 meters, making the ship suitable for various inland waters, including canals, lakes, and ditches. The clearance height of 2.40 meters allows it to pass under most bridges, significantly expanding its navigation possibilities.
Interior and Onboard Comfort
Inside, the Kaagkruiser offers a headroom of 2.05 meters, which is exceptional for a ship of this size. This provides a comfortable living space, even for taller passengers. The layout is practical and focused on comfortable onboard living. There are two fixed berths and one additional berth, making the ship suitable for a weekend getaway with two to three people.
The accommodation is equipped with a dining area, a refrigerator, a stove, and mattresses. There is a manual toilet, with the discharge not directly connected to open water. The water tank has a capacity of 100 liters, which is sufficient for shorter stays onboard.
Technology and Motorization
The Kaagkruiser is equipped with a Craftsman 4.2 diesel engine newly installed in 2024. This inboard engine has only 40 operating hours and is electrically started. The fuel tank has a capacity of 80 liters. The engine is supported by modern instruments such as a fuel tank gauge and temperature gauge. Steering is done via a wheel from the inside position, with a single rudder.
In terms of electrical provisions, the ship is equipped with three batteries, a battery charger, an alternator, an inverter, and shore power connection. This allows for some independent operation without shore power.
Equipment and Safety
On deck, the Kaagkruiser is equipped with various elements that enhance the onboard experience. These include outdoor deck cushions, a cockpit table, a cockpit tent, fenders and lines, and a swim ladder. For anchoring, there is an anchor with a chain available.
Restoration and Maintenance
Over the past two years, the ship has been fully restored by Nic. Witsen in Alkmaar. During this restoration, all technical components were replaced, including the engine, battery pack, and convertible top. A steel measurement was also conducted. Documentation of these works is available, including invoices and papers from the previous owner.
The last time the ship was taken out of the water for maintenance and antifouling was scheduled for 2025.
Usage and Sailing Experience
The Kaagkruiser has been primarily used on inland waters, canals, and lakes. The ship has been used for day trips and short weekend stays. While sailing, the classic design stands out, often leading to positive reactions in harbors and on the water. The sailing characteristics are described as smooth and stable, partly due to the recent technical upgrades.
Additional Information
The ship is sold including full interior furnishings and accessories. The weight of the ship is approximately 7,500 kg.
Conclusion
This Kaagkruiser Super 8.90 combines the classic character of a 1950s motor yacht with the advantages of modern technology. Thanks to the recent restoration and technical upgrades, the ship is ready for many sailing seasons on Dutch inland waters. The combination of a steel hull, spacious interior, and reliable motorization makes this ship interesting for enthusiasts of classic yachts who value comfort and ease of navigation.
