What kind of boat is this Army Boat 800 exactly?
This Army Boat 800 is a former workboat with an open deck and a flat-bottom hull. She is designed with practical use in mind: lots of usable space, easy access to the deck, and a layout you can use as you wish. Anyone searching for terms such as workboat for sale, 8-metre aluminium boat or service vessel will quickly come across this type of craft. Thanks to her dimensions, she offers more deck space than many standard sloops, while still remaining manageable in use and mooring.



What is the condition and what is known about the technical aspects?
The stated condition is reasonable and the technical condition is otherwise unknown. The operation of the engine is also unknown. This means this lot is mainly attractive to buyers who like to inspect themselves, tinker, or are looking for a boat where they can check the technical side step by step according to their own preferences. Therefore, see her as a solid base: an aluminium hull with a working deck, while taking into account inspection and possible repair work in advance. The sale is without warranties and in the current condition, which is an important principle with an auction boat.



Which engine is fitted and what does that mean for use?
She is equipped with a Yamaha outboard engine with an output of approximately 9.9 hp, petrol, with two cylinders. A 10 hp outboard is a common power level for many inland waters, especially if you want to cruise calmly or use the boat mainly as a work platform. At the same time, with an 8-metre boat it is important to have realistic expectations regarding speed and load. Because the engine’s operation is unknown, it is advisable to assume a scenario in which you have the engine checked or allow for maintenance or replacement, depending on your plans.



Is she suitable as a workboat or also for conversion?
Thanks to her spacious deck and aluminium construction, this Army Boat 800 is interesting as a workboat, but also as a project boat. Think of installing benches, adding simple storage options, or fitting her out as a practical transport boat for materials. Her flat bottom can be pleasant when lying still and working on board, for example during maintenance jobs or support at events on the water. Anyone looking for an aluminium workboat with plenty of space will find in this boat a functional starting point that you can tailor to your own taste.



Why is this an interesting auction boat via Boatauction?
An auction boat like this appeals to buyers who are specifically looking for a robust aluminium boat with character and potential. The combination of approximately 8.0 x 2.5 metres, an open working deck, wheel steering and a Yamaha outboard makes her recognisable as a practical workboat. Added to that is the possible service background, which gives her that extra story. If you are looking for a workboat for sale, an aluminium service vessel or a spacious flat-bottom project boat, then this Army Boat 800 is a lot worth serious consideration and should be assessed based on your own inspection and plans.
