Bob Sloepen Explorer 1100 now available in online auction. Everyone can bid until September 21, 2026. Luxury aluminum sloop for day trips and weekends The Bob Sloepen Explorer 1100 is a strikingly young, custom-built sloop from 2023 that invites you to hit the water immediately. It combines a robust aluminum multi-chine hull with a luxurious appearance and a layout that suits both leisurely cruising and sporty outings with friends or family. With a length of 11.00 meters and a width of 3.55 meters, the Explorer 1100 feels spacious on board, while its air draft of approximately 1.40 meters makes it interesting for routes with bridges on inland waters, canals, and channels. This Bob Sloepen has been used by its first owner and has always been stored in a boathouse, which is ideal for those who value a well-maintained presentation and a boat that has been sheltered. What makes this Explorer 1100 so suitable as a weekender? It is designed to be more than just a day boat. In the bow, there is a comfortable cabin with ample storage space and a built-in sink with running water. The table features an electric pedestal, allowing the seating area to be easily converted into sleeping space. This provides two fixed sleeping places and the option for two additional sleeping places, making it perfect for spontaneous weekend getaways on the lakes or a peaceful overnight stay at a dock. Hot water, a shower, and an electric toilet enhance the comfort on board, especially when you want to use it as a weekender sloop. How does it perform with the Mercury V8 300 hp outboard motor? The Mercury V8 outboard motor with 300 hp (built in 2023) gives this speedy sloop the character that many water sports enthusiasts seek: quick acceleration, comfortable cruising on larger waters, and relaxed maneuvering in harbors and narrow areas. Steering is done with a wheel from an external helm position, which complements the open sloop feel perfectly. For added control, it is equipped with a Vetus proportional electric bow thruster of 3.9 kW, making docking and turning in tight spaces less daunting. With a fuel tank capacity of 400 liters, there’s also an enjoyable range for longer days on the water. Is it practically arranged for groups and long days on board? The cockpit features a typical sloop layout with complete round seating, allowing you to comfortably sit, socialize, and dine with larger groups. There is plenty of storage space under the benches where cooling facilities are cleverly integrated with both refrigerator and freezer compartments. Additionally, there’s a large cooler placed in the engine compartment—an area where other configurations often have a diesel engine—keeping drinks and snacks within reach on warm days. By sliding out the cooler, you can access the technical space via steps, making it all well thought out and functional. What equipment and technology are present for comfort and security? It comes equipped with shore power and a battery charger, featuring three batteries on board in total. For those who enjoy longer anchoring periods, there’s also a Honda generator EU30is available so you can continue using electrical facilities outside of the harbor. Navigation is straightforward with GPS and chart plotter included along with depth sounder capabilities. The gauges such as tachometer, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge, and fuel tank gauge provide clear information while cruising. On deck, it features a bimini for shade, swim platform and ladder for easy diving access, as well as fenders and lines for mooring. The self-draining cockpit and electric bilge pump contribute to peace of mind on board. The Bob Sloepen Explorer 1100 is built from aluminum (5 mm) and weighs approximately 4,500 kg. Its combination of luxury sloop characteristics, sporty performance, and weekender comfort makes it appealing for various boating plans: from day trips on lakes and rivers to relaxing overnight stays. Those looking for a modern aluminum sloop equipped with Mercury 300 hp outboard motor, bow thruster, generator, and smart layout will find this Explorer 1100 an attractive candidate within the Boatauction auction.
