Specifications
Classic Steel Motorboat from 1924 – Unique Sloop with Character and History
This classic steel sloop, also known as a "motorboat," is a remarkable specimen from the year 1924. With a length of 7.2 meters and a width of 1.9 meters, this boat offers space for relaxing trips on inland waters. The boat is made of riveted steel, a construction technique typical of the early 20th century and rarely used today. This makes the vessel a unique piece of floating heritage.
Layout and Design
The term "motorboat" refers to the unique layout of this sloop. The engine is placed at the front, reminiscent of the structure of a classic car. The dashboard and the second row of seats reinforce this image. Steering is done via a steering wheel located outside, providing a direct and clear sailing experience. The boat is equipped with a single rudder.
A detachable window is present, affecting the clearance height. With the window mounted, the clearance height is 135 cm; without the window, it is only 95 cm. This makes the boat suitable for low bridges and narrow waterways.
Technical Specifications
The boat is equipped with an inboard diesel engine from the brand Lomatec, model 64. This engine was installed in 2018 and has since run approximately 150 hours. The engine has four cylinders and delivers a power of 64 hp. The electric start function ensures ease of use. The cruising speed is around 20 km/h, with a maximum speed of about 25 km/h. The fuel tank has a capacity of 50 liters.
Onboard, there are various measuring instruments, including a fuel tank gauge, oil pressure gauge, and temperature gauge. The electrical installation includes a voltmeter and two batteries. An electric bilge pump is also installed.
Maintenance and Condition
The boat was fully restored in 2018, during which the engine was replaced. In 2024, the boat was last taken out of the water for maintenance, and a new antifouling layer was applied. The hull and interior have been professionally fitted by a yacht builder. The boat is not registered, but the VAT has been paid, and a purchase agreement is available.
Purpose and Sailing Experience
The current owner has mainly used the boat for day trips on inland waters. The sailing characteristics are described as calm and comfortable, ideal for tours and recreational use. The boat is not a fast sailor but offers a relaxing sailing experience. The low clearance height without the window makes it possible to sail in hard-to-reach places.
History and Special Features
This sloop is a rare specimen within the category of classic boats. The riveted steel construction and unique layout make it a striking appearance on the water. The boat regularly attracts the attention of passersby and fellow water sports enthusiasts. The combination of classic appearance and modern motorization makes this vessel suitable for lovers of nautical heritage who value character and appearance.
