Specifications
Motorboat 900 steel motorboat – project boat with lots of potential for inland waterways
The Motorboat 900 is a steel motorboat of approximately 9.00 metres long and 3.00 metres wide, designed for relaxed cruising on inland waters. With its practical dimensions and limited draft of around 0.40 metres, this type of boat is interesting for cruising areas where space and depth can be limited, such as canals, ditches, lakes, ponds and rivers. This Motorboat 900 is offered as a project boat and requires attention and maintenance, which can make it an attractive option for buyers who like to improve, customise and modernise to their own taste.
The hull is made of steel, a material that has been popular in Dutch recreational boating for decades due to its solid appearance, calm handling and the possibilities for modifications. Steel also lends itself well to creating a personal layout or adding extra equipment, depending on the future owner’s wishes. The stated condition is “reasonable” and the boat is explicitly offered as a project; this means a viewing with a critical eye is appropriate for this offering.
Motorboat 900 now in the online auction. Anyone can bid up to and including 9 March 2026.
Dimensions, handling and intended cruising area
At 9 metres in length, the Motorboat 900 offers a size that is often experienced as “just spacious enough” for comfortable day trips and weekend cruises, while still remaining manageable in marinas and narrow passages. The 3-metre beam provides a stable base on the water and contributes to a pleasant feeling on board, especially on lakes and rivers where there can be more movement. The draft of approximately 40 cm makes it possible to explore shallower stretches and get closer to banks or moorings where deeper vessels have more difficulty.
In practice, this type of steel motorboat is well suited to recreational boating in the Netherlands: leisurely cruising, a day out with family or friends, or a weekend away with multiple overnight stays in mind. The combination of length, beam and shallow draft also makes the Motorboat 900 interesting for water sports enthusiasts who like to alternate between urban routes and open water.
Engine and technology: a basis for your own plan
The boat is equipped with one inboard engine. The current operating condition of the engine is unknown, which is important to take into account when considering the purchase. For a buyer looking for a project boat, this can actually provide room to set their own course: from having the existing installation checked and overhauled to planning a replacement or modernisation, depending on budget and intended use. An inboard configuration suits a steel motorboat in this class and matches the character of comfortable inland cruising.
As no additional documentation is provided and no recent information is available regarding maintenance items such as antifouling, it is advisable after purchase to pay extra attention to the technical condition, the hull, and the general onboard systems. This is common with project boats and helps to form a realistic picture of the work required to make the vessel ready to cruise.
Style, comfort and layout possibilities
A steel Motorboat 900 typically has a timeless, functional look that fits well with the Dutch boating landscape. Especially with a project boat, the greatest added value is often the freedom to tailor the interior and equipment to personal preferences. Think of creating a practical layout for weekend trips, adding extra storage for longer cruises, or upgrading comfort features that make staying on board more pleasant.
For buyers who enjoy DIY work or who plan to engage a yard, this type of motorboat offers an interesting starting point: a steel hull with a size that invites the creation of a compact yet usable living space. This allows the Motorboat 900 to grow into a pleasant recreational boat for day trips, or a weekend boat with which you can head out for several days in a row.
Who is this Motorboat 900 interesting for?
This steel motorboat is particularly suitable for water sports enthusiasts who are deliberately looking for a 9-metre project boat with the potential to improve step by step. Those who like cruising on canals and ditches, but also regularly seek out open space on lakes and rivers, will find a practical basis in the dimensions and draft. With the right attention to engineering and finishing, the Motorboat 900 can develop into a personal, characterful motorboat suited to relaxed cruising and recreational use on inland waters.
