ALM cruiser with living comfort and sundeck
What kind of boat is this?
This 1981 ALM cruiser is a steel motorboat measuring 11.23 metres in length, 3.60 metres in beam and 1.10 metres in draft.

The previous owner owned her for approximately five years and used her both for day trips and as a liveaboard.
With headroom of approximately 1.90 metres, she is suitable for comfortable use inside. The layout provides four permanent berths and two additional berths. The boat has a single rudder and is steered with a steering wheel. There are two steering positions, allowing you to operate the boat from both inside and outside.
The ALM cruiser is now available in the online auction. Everyone can place a bid until 19 October 2026.
What is the layout like on board?
Via the side boarding step or the swimming ladder at the stern, you reach the spacious sundeck. It features the outdoor controls, guardrails, a bimini and space for outdoor seating. The sundeck is arranged as a pleasant place to relax and offers shelter from the sun. The boat is supplied with fenders, ropes, an anchor with chain and a manual windlass.
From the sundeck, stairs lead to the saloon. This living space contains a futon sofa that can be folded out into an additional berth. There is also a record player, a soundbar with woofer and Bluetooth, and a projection screen. A projector is included as well. According to the seller, the air conditioning with heat pump can optionally be operated via Wi-Fi.
The saloon also contains a wood-burning stove. This can heat the interior and can also be used to prepare small dishes or coffee. For cold conditions, an additional paraffin heater is on board. The heating system also includes a hot-air installation.
What berths and facilities are available?
The galley is located towards the bow and was refurbished in 2023. It has a table with four seats, storage space and a large sink. Two gas connections have been fitted into the worktop, allowing one or two large burners to be connected. When the burners are not needed, more workspace can be created. There is also a separate drinking-water tap with an additional filtration system.
A cabin with a double Tempur mattress is located in the bow. According to the seller, this mattress could potentially be adapted to create two separate beds. There is storage space beneath the beds. At the rear is the larger bedroom, with a double bed, a clothes rail and additional storage beneath the bed. A pass-through hatch provides extra practical access to the storage space.
The bathroom is equipped with an electric toilet, a washbasin, a large mirror and a smaller mirror. The washbasin is made of river stone. The toilet discharge leads directly into the open water. There is also a refrigerator, freezer, mattresses and a dining area.
What engine and equipment does she have?
The ALM cruiser is powered by a single Ford inboard diesel engine producing 120 hp. The engine has six cylinders, is electrically started and is reported to be operational according to the information provided. The boat has a fuel gauge, oil-pressure gauge, temperature gauge and rev counter.
The electrical installation includes a battery charger, inverter and shore-power connection. The boat operates on 12 volts and 220 volts and has two batteries. Navigation equipment includes a depth sounder and VHF radio. The bilge pump is manual. A lifebuoy is present on board.
What is known about its condition?
The seller describes the boat’s overall condition as good. She was last taken out of the water for maintenance in 2026. The most recent antifouling treatment took place in 2023. At that time, the hull was completely sanded and repainted during the summer. The antifouling now needs to be reapplied.
There is a cracked roof hatch. According to the information provided, it does not leak. A battery isolator still needs to be installed. The required battery isolator is included. Various improvements have been made to the interior in recent years, but some cosmetic finishing work remains to be done. Rolls of linoleum for covering the cabin walls and completing the bathroom floor are also included.
What extras are included?
In addition to the fixed equipment, the buyer will receive various filters and engine-maintenance parts. An additional heater, two deck chairs and an outdoor carpet are also included in the sale. For the interior, the previously mentioned futon sofa, record player, soundbar with woofer, Bluetooth facility and projection screen are included.
The boat weighs approximately 14,000 kilograms. The combination of her wide hull, permanent berths, heating options and sundeck makes her an interesting choice for anyone looking for a boat suitable for staying on inland waterways. Those searching online to buy a boat will particularly appreciate the interior space and practical facilities offered by this type of cruiser. For anyone considering buying a second-hand boat, it is important to pay attention during the viewing day to the technical installation, roof hatch, antifouling and remaining finishing work. These boat-buying tips will help you assess her calmly and realistically.
When can you view her?
The boat can be viewed during the organised viewing day. This is the opportunity to carefully assess the layout, the condition of the interior, the engine room, the sundeck and the equipment on board.
