Specifications
Vlet 500 – Steel Sloop with Outboard Motor in Well
The Vlet 500 is a steel boat with a length of 5 meters and a width of 1.80 meters. This vlet is designed for use on inland waters such as canals, ditches, lakes, ponds, and rivers. Thanks to its robust construction and functional design, this type of boat is suitable for various forms of recreational boating, including day trips and sporty outings.
Construction and Design
The hull of the Vlet 500 is entirely made of steel, which contributes to the boat's strength and stability. The draft is 20 centimeters, making the boat suitable for shallow waters. At the front, an air chamber is integrated into the foredeck, providing extra buoyancy and safety. The boat is not registered, but the VAT has been paid.
The boat features a well in which the outboard motor is placed. This design ensures that the motor is partially shielded, which can reduce noise and vibrations and better protect the motor from external influences.
Motorization
The Vlet 500 is equipped with a Mercury outboard motor with a power of 9.9 hp. The motor is started manually. The exact year of manufacture of the motor is unknown, and the current condition of the motor has not been determined. The motor runs on gasoline and is suitable for calm to lightly sporty use on inland waters.
Use and Application
According to the previous owner, the boat was used for recreational purposes such as day trips, pleasure boating, and sporty outings. Thanks to its compact dimensions and low weight, the Vlet 500 is maneuverable and easy to handle, even in narrower waterways such as canals and ditches.
The boat does not come with a trailer, and no dinghy is included. There is no recent information available on when the boat was last taken out of the water or when the last antifouling treatment was performed.
