Boesch Powerboats for Sale

Boesch

Boesch is regarded as a brand that has become a way of life. Is that why so many stars, starlets, VIPs and celebrities are out on the water in these striking Runabouts?

On the ideal line between water and sky

You really have to experience it for yourself. Even recognized powerboat experts agree that a ride in a Boesch runabout is completely different from other boats in the same segment, the same price range and the same areas of use.
The reason for this is nothing other than … a feeling. The feeling of floating – above a certain speed, Boesch boats not only begin to plane, they seem to hover above the water. Horizon Gliding is what inventor Boesch called it 50 years ago, or in plain English: “Everything is light!”

Floating above the water

The principle is based on the idea of the perfect propeller, a centrally positioned engine block and a rigid shaft. With more than enough horsepower under the hood, Boesch runabouts quickly settle into a stable planing attitude, without the bow rising first and without throwing up much of a wake.
A trim that is perfectly suited to water skiing; at international championships, Boesch boats are often used exclusively as tow boats.

But Boesch runabouts are considered unique not only because of the “Horizon Gliding” experience. Their design, the craftsmanship and the consistent commitment to wood (mahogany) as the basic hull material are typical Boesch hallmarks, too.
Much like its Italian competitor Riva, Boesch also owes its renown to a certain enthusiasm for its runabouts among prominent “fans”.

The electric alternative

The Boesch shipyard – pardon: manufactory – builds fewer than 50 boats a year, and around a third of them are now runabouts with electric propulsion. The Boesch brothers recognized early on that, with combustion engines being banned on more and more European inland lakes, the electric alternative could occupy a market segment of its own. That is why the electrically powered "Boeschs" are built somewhat lighter, so that the comparatively less powerful electric motors still convey the same “Horizon Gliding” feeling.
Today, the Boesch manufactory is regarded as one of the pioneers of electric motor use in powerboats. Very few other yards have integrated the electric principle into their models so consistently.
