Specifications
Sportis 580 RIB from 2004 with Mercury 115 HP Outboard Motor
General Features of the Sportis 580
The Sportis 580 is a rigid inflatable boat (RIB) with a length of 5.80 meters and a width of 2.39 meters. These dimensions make the model suitable for use on inland waters and provide space for multiple passengers. The hull is made of polyester and has a V-bottom, which contributes to its performance at higher speeds and in light waves. The boat was built in 2004 and has a registered RDW registration number: 51-06-YK. VAT has been paid, and documentation is available in the form of a registration certificate.
Sportis 580 now in the online auction. Everyone can bid until November 24, 2025.
Construction and Material Use
The hull of the Sportis 580 is made of polyester, a commonly used material in recreational boating due to its strength and relatively low weight. The boat weighs approximately 485 kilograms. The tubes of the RIB remain hard and show no signs of leakage. The draft is 40 centimeters, making the boat suitable for shallower waters. There are minor cosmetic damages to the interior of the polyester. These do not affect the structural integrity of the boat but may require attention for those who value appearance.
Motorization and Technical Equipment
The Sportis 580 is equipped with a Mercury outboard motor of 115 HP, featuring four cylinders and an electric start system. The motor is from the same year as the boat, namely 2004, and is operational. The motor starts immediately, runs smoothly, and the cooling functions properly. The boat is equipped with a fuel gauge and a tachometer. There is one battery present, as well as an electric bilge pump.
The original built-in fuel tank of 80 liters is currently out of use due to contamination. The boat is currently operated with two external fuel tanks. Cleaning or replacing the original tank can be considered for those who prefer a fixed fuel supply.
Maintenance and Condition of the Boat
The boat was taken out of the water for maintenance in 2024. The last antifouling treatment dates back to 2019. A new layer of antifouling is recommended for optimal protection of the hull against fouling. The tubes are in good condition and maintain their pressure. The onboard electrical system, particularly the lighting, requires attention and should be checked. A custom-made cover is available that provides protection against weather conditions when the boat is not in use.
Usage and Sailing Experience
The Sportis 580 has been used on inland waters and has been employed for recreational boating and day trips. The combination of a powerful motor and a lightweight hull makes this RIB suitable for fast movements and recreational use. The V-bottom contributes to stable sailing, even at higher speeds. The boat offers sufficient space for passengers and is suitable for various recreational purposes. The boat is currently ready to sail with external fuel tanks but requires attention in terms of cleaning, antifouling, and electrical systems in the long term. The base of the boat and motor is functional, offering opportunities for further optimization according to personal preferences.
Conclusion
The Sportis 580 from 2004 offers a functional base for those looking for a RIB with a powerful outboard motor. The boat is registered, comes with documentation, and has a working motor installation. With attention to some technical and cosmetic points, this RIB can be further customized to personal preferences and usage purposes.
