Speedster 653 now in the online auction. Everyone can bid up to and including 24 August 2026. What makes this Speedster 653 so attractive? This Speedster 653 is an aluminium boat measuring 6.53 metres in length and 2.25 metres in beam, with a draught of approximately 0.50 metres. That makes her suitable for a wide range of cruising areas, from lakes and ponds to rivers and inland waterways. Thanks to the self-draining cockpit, she is also practical to use—especially if you often keep her outdoors or simply want carefree boating. Steering is via a wheel from an internal helm position, providing a sheltered and clear view while underway. This layout appeals to many watersports enthusiasts looking for a sporty sloop with just a bit more comfort and control. How does she perform with the 60 hp Yamaha outboard? She is equipped with a Yamaha F60FETL outboard engine with electric start and 60 hp. This allows the Speedster 653 to combine two worlds: quiet cruising through canals and narrow waterways, as well as brisk running when you head out onto open water. The engine is operational and has only 1 running hour, with model year 2026. This means that as a buyer you step aboard with a drivetrain that has barely been used. Speed and fuel consumption can be monitored, which is convenient for those who like to keep an overview during longer day trips. The petrol tank has a capacity of 20 litres, fitting the character of a sporty day boat that you can use flexibly for short to medium-length outings. Is she suitable for day trips and weekends away? Yes—this Speedster 653 is particularly strong in that versatile use. She has been used for day boating, leisure cruising, sporty boating, and also for holidays and weekends away. Her dimensions make her easy to handle when mooring, while the beam provides enough space to sit comfortably with friends or family. With the right balance between speed and relaxation, she is a great choice for anyone wanting to buy a sporty sloop that also invites long summer days on the water. What equipment is included? The boat is supplied with a sprayhood, cockpit tent, exterior cushions, and a bathing ladder, as well as fenders and lines. Fenders and mooring lines are included in the sale too, so you are immediately well equipped for your first trip and for docking. The cockpit tent is a major plus for those who want to stay out longer or extend the season, as it provides shelter from wind and an unexpected shower. The bathing ladder makes her even more appealing for swimming on the lake or taking a break at a quiet little beach. What is important to know about documentation and maintenance? CE documentation is present with the boat, as well as a declaration. She was last taken out of the water for maintenance in 2026. No antifouling treatment is specified, which is not always necessary for inland-water use and when the boat is regularly taken out of the water. No known defects have been reported. The owner’s story is mainly that she has been used too little due to circumstances, which also aligns with the low running hours and the overall impression of a lightly used, young aluminium sloop. This Speedster 653 via BoatAuction is therefore an interesting option for anyone searching for a Speedster 653 for sale, an aluminium sloop with a Yamaha outboard, or a sporty day boat that can cruise both calmly and quickly. She draws attention on the water, and according to the owner she regularly gets a thumbs-up. That may say it best: this boat not only runs beautifully—she also makes an impression.
