Waterland 700 ready for new cruising plans
Anyone looking for a compact, comfortable motorboat for inland waterways, lakes and rivers will find this Waterland 700 an appealing companion. She was built in 1978 at the Flevowerf and carries the design of Willem de Vries Lentsch Jr.—a name that inspires confidence among many boaters thanks to well-thought-out layouts and pleasant handling. With a length of 7.04 metres and a beam of 2.45 metres, the Waterland 700 is easy to handle in the marina yet spacious enough for longer weekends away as a couple or with the family. Her V-shaped hull helps her track steadily through the water, while the wheel steering outside delivers that true open-air boating feel.
Inside, the boat offers headroom of around 1.95 metres, making her notably comfortable for this size class. The accommodation features a dinette and practical amenities such as a refrigerator, cooker and even a freezer. With a total of four berths, she is suitable for holidays, weekend getaways or relaxed cruises through canals and ditches. The current owner mentions holidays to Friesland as the best memory—fitting her character perfectly: a pleasant family boat that invites you to cruise at an easy pace and moor up wherever it’s beautiful.
Waterland 700 now in the online auction. Anyone can bid up to and including 6 July 2026.
How does this Waterland 700 handle?
She is known as a stable motorboat that sits firmly in the water. Thanks to her hull and dimensions, she feels predictable, even when conditions become a bit livelier on lakes and rivers. With a cruising speed around 9 km/h, she is ideal for relaxed touring, while a top speed of up to approximately 15 km/h allows you to make quicker progress when needed. Her draft of about 70 cm also makes her suitable for many Dutch cruising areas, including shallower stretches.
What can you expect from the engine and systems?
In the engine bay is a Vetus 4.14 diesel inboard with 39 hp, year of manufacture 2015. The engine was overhauled and installed in 2023 (invoice available) and has approximately 140 running hours. This makes her interesting for anyone specifically looking for a Waterland 700 with a Vetus diesel and a clear history. On board you’ll find the usual gauges, including tachometer, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge and fuel gauge. Reported consumption is around 2 litres per hour, making her suitable for longer cruising days without constantly needing to refuel.
Electrically, she is set up in a practical way. She has shore power, alternator, battery charger, voltmeter and four batteries with a total capacity of 388 Ah. The chargers and components are from Victron, including a Victron Agrofet triple solution for charging while underway and two Victron shunts. For those searching terms like Victron on board, 12V and 220V installation, or motorboat battery capacity, this is a combination that fits modern use very well.
Is she suitable for overnight stays?
Yes—she is arranged for comfortable stays on board. The dinette forms the heart of the interior, and with four berths there is room for family or guests. The hot-air heating extends the season, making her inviting for weekend trips in spring and autumn as well. With a 50-litre water tank and a 60-litre diesel tank, she is practical for short holidays and multi-day trips. An electric toilet is fitted; the toilet discharge goes directly to open water, something buyers should take into account for their intended use and cruising area.
What about maintenance and equipment?
She was taken out of the water for maintenance in 2026, and antifouling was applied the same year. According to the information provided, there are no signs of osmosis. Externally she is equipped with a sprayhood and cockpit tent, making time in the cockpit comfortable in changeable weather. Fenders and lines are included, as well as a bathing platform and swim ladder for an easy step aboard or a refreshing dip. The cockpit is self-draining, which is convenient in rain or spray.
For navigation and orientation she is equipped with GPS, depth sounder, fishfinder and log/speed meter. This suits boaters who like a bit more insight while underway—whether on a river or exploring an unfamiliar lake.
This Waterland 700 is a complete GRP motorboat with an inviting character: compact, practical and ready to create new memories. She is being auctioned via BoatAuction—an excellent opportunity for anyone searching for a Waterland 700 for sale, a family boat for inland waters, or a comfortable weekend cruiser with a diesel engine and Victron installation.
