Construction and Technical Condition
The patrol boat is built with a focus on strength and durability. The hull is fully sandblasted and provided with a new coating. Various welding works have been carried out on the superstructure, including the installation of a steel steering console on the flybridge. The front windows have been removed and replaced with steel plates, simplifying and strengthening the construction. Additionally, new profiles have been added to the deck for future placement of deck windows.
The ship is equipped with one DAF diesel engine. No dinghy or trailer is included in the sale. The boat was last taken out of the water for maintenance in 2025. No recent antifouling treatment has been performed.
Interior and Finishing Options
The interior of the boat is completely stripped, providing space for a new layout and finishing as desired. The current state allows for the ship to be fully customized, for example, as a houseboat, recreational vessel, or workboat. A 3D scan of the interior is included in the sale, with an estimated value of €1900. This scan can be used for designing custom furniture or planning technical installations.
The headroom of 180 cm inside offers sufficient freedom of movement for most users. The open structure of the hull allows for installations such as plumbing, kitchen, and sleeping quarters to be placed according to personal preference.
Usage and History
The boat has been used in the past for pleasure cruising and as living space. The current owner has completely stripped the ship with a view to renovation. The hull and deck are prepared for further finishing, including putty work and the application of new deck profiles.
The construction and dimensions make the ship suitable for various applications, including permanent residence, recreational use, or as a floating work platform. The steel construction and the welding works carried out contribute to the structural stability of the vessel.
Summary of Possibilities
This self-built patrol boat from 1982 offers a hull with potential for redevelopment. The steel hull, recent preservation treatment, and included 3D scan make the ship suitable for buyers looking for a project boat with a solid foundation. The absence of an interior offers complete freedom in design and layout. The boat is registered under the Belgian flag and VAT has been paid.
With its robust construction and open layout possibilities, this ship is an interesting option for DIY enthusiasts, designers, or entrepreneurs looking to realize a floating project.
