Motorboat 1050 Comfortable Steel Cruiser

What kind of boat is the Motorboat 1050?

The Motorboat 1050 is a compact and atmospheric steel cruiser for relaxing trips on inland waterways, canals and ditches. With a length of 10.50 metres and a beam of 2.50 metres, she offers a pleasant combination of space, visibility and manoeuvrability. Her draft is approximately 90 centimetres and her air draft is around 2.30 metres. This makes the motorboat particularly suitable for cruising areas with bridges, narrow passages and limited water depth.

The boat has been used for leisure cruising and has a warm, homely interior. She has two fixed berths, making her suitable for multi-day trips for two people. The presence of a heater also makes her appealing for spring and autumn cruises. Thanks to the indoor steering position with wheel, she can be operated comfortably even in less pleasant weather.

What is the layout on board?

Inside, the Motorboat 1050 offers a practical living area with mattresses, seating and a compact pantry. The cushions and mattresses were renewed in 2026. Additional seating has also been created with matching cushions, making the saloon an inviting place to eat together, relax or wait out a rain shower. The vinyl flooring has been replaced by an authentic wooden floor, which was revarnished in spring 2026. This gives the interior a classic appearance and a pleasant atmosphere.

The boat has a sink and worktop. The sink and hoses were renewed in 2025. A refrigerator, also replaced in 2025, is available for keeping provisions chilled. There is also a television on board, together with a renewed radio and speakers. The manual toilet was replaced in 2025. The toilet discharge runs directly into the open water. A future owner should ensure that its use complies with the regulations applicable to the relevant cruising area.

What engine does this cruiser have?

The Motorboat 1050 is powered by a single Mitsubishi diesel engine. It is an inboard engine with an electric starting system and a stated output of 42 hp. The engine has approximately 5,000 operating hours and is in working order. On board there is a fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, temperature gauge and rev counter. These allow the skipper to monitor the most important engine readings while cruising.

For additional manoeuvring comfort, the boat is equipped with both a hydraulic bow thruster and a stern thruster. These features are particularly practical when mooring, manoeuvring in reverse and navigating confined spaces. The combination of the diesel engine and the available thrust assistance makes her suitable for relaxed trips where control and visibility are important.

What equipment is available outside?

Outside, the boat has a sprayhood, cockpit tent and exterior cushions. The cockpit can therefore be used flexibly, depending on the weather. On sunny days, it provides space to sit outside, while the covers offer shelter in less stable weather conditions. The bathing platform with swimming ladder makes it possible to take a refreshing dip or swim easily from the boat.

Safety and convenience on deck are complemented by a guardrail, fenders, lines and a lifebuoy. The fenders and lines were renewed in 2025. 

What recent improvements have been carried out?

The exterior paintwork was renewed in spring 2026. The antifouling and anodes were also attended to in spring 2026. The bathing platform was renewed in 2025. Inside, the flooring, cushions and mattresses were renewed, with the wooden floor being varnished again at the beginning of 2026. In addition, the refrigerator, television, radio and speakers were replaced in 2025.

The combination of these works gives the Motorboat 1050 a well-maintained appearance with various practical improvements. The boat is primarily set up as a comfortable weekend cruiser for inland waterways. She offers the opportunity to immediately enjoy peaceful cruises, pleasant mooring spots and longer days on the water.

What is the electrical equipment like?

For its power supply, the boat has shore power, an inverter and a solar panel. There are two batteries on board. These facilities provide flexibility while staying on board, both in a marina and while under way. The inverter can help operate suitable electrical equipment when no direct shore-power connection is available.

The indoor steering position is located in the saloon, allowing the boat to be operated from a sheltered position. The instruments provide information about engine speed, temperature, oil pressure and fuel level. This fits with a clear and practical cruising setup for recreational use.

Who is this boat suitable for?

Her dimensions make her particularly interesting for canals, ditches and other sheltered waterways.
