1984 Draco 1800 ST, 11.900 CHF

Well-kept Norwegian classic with Mercruiser power and stable bathing platform.
This 1984 Draco 1800 SunTop evokes memories of the brand’s glorious early years and still impresses today with its clean, sporty appearance. The cream-white GRP hull sits lightly on the water, while the gently curved bow rail immediately recalls the elegant lines of the early Draco models.

Beneath the generously upholstered aft sunpad, a freshly serviced Mercruiser inboard engine (model 485, around 165 hp) awaits its call. In combination with the sterndrive, the powerful four-cylinder lifts the merely 1,100 kg light boat effortlessly onto plane, providing confident thrust for watersports sessions or relaxed cruising across the lake.

The cockpit radiates classic vintage charm: two swivelling bucket seats with cream-coloured upholstery and sand-coloured headrests, a clear dashboard with wood décor, and a wraparound bench seat.

After a refreshing swim, you can comfortably re-board via the solid bathing platform and the foldable stainless-steel ladder. A polished stainless-steel handrail adds extra safety – details that highlight Draco’s high quality standards.

This boat spent its entire life on Swiss lakes, far from saltwater, and always wintered carefully in a boatyard. The excellent care is evident in the intact structure, the rich engine sound and the clean electrics. With a length of 5.50 m and a beam of 2.20 m, the Draco is agile in the harbour yet offers space for up to six people thanks to its thoughtful layout. A 120-litre fuel tank enables extended day trips, and the shallow draught of 0.70 m invites refreshing swims in sheltered coves.

Whether you are a lover of the first Draco series seeking an authentic classic, or an export buyer looking for a proven, well-maintained Swiss sports boat for sunny coastal adventures – this 1800 SunTop convinces with character, reliability and an extremely attractive price. Secure a piece of boatbuilding history that is ready for many more summers on the water.
