The WB1 is inspired by the concept of a tugboat, which gives this boat a distinctive character. Its impressive bollards and towbeting behind the steering wheel are characteristic of its unique design. Moreover, this boat exudes pure luxury thanks to its high-quality finish and use of premium materials.
The WB1 is a truly Dutch product and is completely finished by the professionals of Nautisch Centrum Nicolaas Witsen in Alkmaar. The WB1 is not just another boat; it is a personalized masterpiece that perfectly combines craftsmanship and style.
With the WB1 you get the chance to customize your boat entirely according to your own taste and wishes. You have the choice between a solid fender or a hufterproof rubber fender, allowing you to select the ideal protection for your boat.
Moreover, we offer a range of additional options to make your boating experience even more enjoyable. For example, you can choose an integrated cooling system in the benches, a bow thruster for effortless maneuvering, an extended sun deck for relaxing in the sun, and various cushion sets to dress your boat comfortably and stylishly.
Our choice for the cushion sets falls on Silverguard, a striking faux leather with a beautiful metallic sheen. Silverguard not only offers the look of fabric, but combines it with the durability and strength of high-quality faux leather. With a palette of as many as 60 color variations, ranging from neutral tones to vibrant colors, Silverguard offers versatility and unmatched quality.
And when it comes to sound, you can rely on our choice between Fusion or JL audio equipment. Depending on your preferences, we will select an installation that perfectly suits your musical needs.
WB1-D | Motor Power.
The WB1 is available in electric, diesel or diesel-hybrid versions. We will highlight the diesel variant in more detail here. As standard, the WB1-D is equipped with a Vetus M3.29 diesel engine.
The 27 hp M3.29 Marine diesel engine is a quiet and very economical inboard engine. This reliable and robust 3-cylinder engine has high power and torque. With new, improved features and modern appearance, this engine is designed to meet future market demands. All M-LINE diesel engines are HVO approved and also run on renewable fuels.
WB1-D | Deck.
As the boat deck of the WB1, we offer you a choice between two high-quality finish options: Top Deck and Seadek. Topdek is a stylish alternative to real teak, without the disadvantages of discoloration or aging.
Seadek, on the other hand, combines EVA foam with HPL teak lines for boat floors that perfectly match your boat and personal taste. Both options guarantee durability, minimal maintenance, comfort (less heating) and excellent non-slip properties.
Whether you choose the classic elegance of Top Deck or the modern look of Seadek, you will enjoy a floor that is both functionally and aesthetically satisfying.
