The "Retro Classic 8.3" although made of GRP, the design is based on the classic wooden runaboats of the 1950s. The Retro Classic boats derive their special appeal from the special airbrush paint, which gives the boats an unusual mahogany look. The paint, which consists of a total of seven layers, not only looks like real wood, it also feels like it. The result is so deceptively real that not even experts can tell right away whether the „Retro Classic“ is a GRP or mahogany yacht. The buyer can choose between different motors. Please contact us for specifications and prices. Hartmut Ross... read more

Here we have a rare and very special 1928 Wooden gentleman's sport launch. The recent 2024 survey advises she is likely a Chris Craft, however there is no substantiation of this and thus I have her listed just as a wooden launch.

She is a stunning classic wooden design mostly kept ashore and under her full cover on her road trailer, all of which is included in the sale. She was fully serviced mid 2025 including anodes and underwater areas and has a full cover for storage and transport. She is just br... read more

A stunning Boesch 510 ski boat (Gambler 510) A masterpiece of wooden motorboat building. Built by the long-established and world-famous Swiss boatbuilding company, still going today. This Boesch 510 (just under 17 feet) presents in very good order having recently been re-varnished and painted, and deck fittings re-chromed. But it is now time for a new owner to take her on and finish the restoration. She basically just needs the internal upholstery done - but she is usable. It would be great to fix her up with a new windscreen but the existing one is good. This Boesch 510 is a classic ski boa... read more
