Nova Zembla 650 now in the online auction. Everyone can bid up to and including 6 July 2026.What kind of boat is the Nova Zembla 650?The Nova Zembla 650 is an open sloop with practical dimensions for recreational use. She combines a relatively spacious cockpit with a manageable size, making her suitable for an afternoon trip as well as longer days on the water. Thanks to the polyester hull, she is also a common type of boat in this segment, partly because polyester is often chosen in practice for ease of use and shape retention. The boat—the Nova Zembla and the 650 model—are often appreciated for their accessible character: step aboard, cast off and enjoy, without immediately having to manage a large vessel.

Which engine is installed and what is known about its operation?This sloop is equipped with a Yanmar inboard engine with an output of 20 hp and three cylinders. An inboard engine gives many owners a pleasant feeling while boating, partly due to the weight distribution and the calm character this type of propulsion often provides. At the same time, it is important to know that the operation of the engine for this lot is unknown. She is offered without guarantees regarding technical condition. For a buyer searching for terms such as “Yanmar 20 hp inboard sloop”, this can be an attractive basis, but it is wise to allow for inspection and possible maintenance before using her intensively.

Is she suitable for inland waterways and recreational boating?Yes, the Nova Zembla 650 is, in principle, a sloop that fits well with recreational boating on inland waters. With her draft of about 50 centimetres, she can manage many routes such as lakes, canals and urban waterways, depending on local conditions. Her open cockpit invites relaxed cruising, picnicking on board or a quiet evening trip. The steering console also makes her pleasant to handle, especially if you like to maintain good visibility while underway and when mooring.

What can you expect in terms of condition and finish?The boat shows signs of use. This means she should not be seen as a showroom model, but as a sloop with a history on the water. For many buyers, that is precisely an opportunity: a Nova Zembla sloop you can tackle step by step to your own taste, for example through cleaning, cosmetic attention, or checking the mechanics and electrics. Because she is sold on behalf of the municipality and offered in her current condition, viewing is strongly recommended. That way you can assess for yourself the condition of her cockpit, hull and equipment, and what work you may want to plan.

Anyone looking for a Nova Zembla 650 via a boat auction, a polyester sloop with an inboard engine, or a spacious sloop for inland waters will find an interesting opportunity in this lot. Take the time to view her, make your own checklist, and decide whether this Nova Zembla is the right base for your coming boating season.
