Fletcher Arrowbeau 17 now in the online auction. Everyone can bid until April 20, 2026. Fletcher Arrowbeau 17 (1986) – sporty speedboat with Suzuki DT115 and renewed road trailer The Fletcher Arrowbeau 17 is a classic among sporty polyester speedboats, known for its recognizable lines, practical layout, and lively sailing characteristics. This 1986 model combines a compact length of 5.18 meters with a width of 2.04 meters, providing a boat that feels spacious enough for day trips and water sports, yet remains manageable for docking, trailering, and storage. The V-shaped hull is designed to cut smoothly through the water and remain stable and on course at higher speeds, making this Fletcher appealing for those who enjoy active sailing on inland waters and lakes. Fletcher Arrowbeau 17 now in the online auction. Everyone can bid until April 20, 2026. Hull, dimensions, and behavior on inland waters and lakes With a draft of approximately 0.50 meters, this Arrowbeau 17 is suitable for many Dutch sailing areas, especially on lakes and wider waterways. The V-shaped hull contributes to a sporty sailing experience: the boat quickly planes and responds immediately to steering input via the steering wheel. This makes it attractive for recreational trips, as well as water sports moments where agility and control are important. The cruising speed is around 30 km/h, while the top speed is approximately 63 km/h, fitting well with the character of a 17-foot sports boat with a 115 hp outboard motor. Motorization: Suzuki DT115 (2-stroke, 115 hp) and performance At the back hangs a 1986 Suzuki DT115 outboard motor, a 2-stroke with 4 cylinders and electric start. This type of motor is known for its direct throttle response and typical 2-stroke character, which complements a light and sporty hull like the Arrowbeau. The boat has a fuel tank of about 80 liters (stainless steel), ideal for longer day trips without the need for constant refueling. Onboard, there are gauges such as a tachometer, temperature gauge, and oil pressure gauge; the fuel gauge and battery voltage are connected, aiding in maintaining an overview while sailing. It is important to note for interested buyers that the motor requires attention: under load, the drive can go into freewheel and a fault has been reported in the 2-stroke oil sensor. The motor is operational, but these points make this vessel particularly interesting for someone who enjoys thinking technically, can tinker themselves, or wants to engage a specialist to inspect the drive and oil signaling. For buyers looking for a sporty Fletcher with potential and who don't mind taking further steps mechanically, this could be an attractive combination. Interior, seating comfort, and practical layout for water sports This Fletcher Arrowbeau 17 is designed with recreational use and active sailing in mind. A completely new interior has recently been installed, including new seats, noticeably modernizing the appearance and seating comfort. For water sports enthusiasts, there is also a storage compartment for water skis, ensuring loose equipment doesn't get in the way. Additionally, preparations have been made for speakers, allowing for easy audio integration for enjoyable days on the water. Electrical installation, battery, and deck equipment The electrical installation has been renewed, and there is a 75 Ah 12V battery onboard, noted to have been installed in the summer of 2025. For added safety onboard, there is an electric bilge pump, an essential component for an open sports boat. The boat is equipped with a bimini for shade during sunny trips and a black cover to protect the interior when the boat is not in use. Antifouling was applied in 2025. Trailer: Atlanta Boattrailer (braked) with recent updates The boat comes with a braked road trailer from Atlanta Boattrailer (built in 1976, model 76A8-1812). This trailer was refurbished in the summer of 2025 with a new drawbar, new axle, and new tires and rims. With a winch and five rollers, loading and unloading are practical, making it suitable for those who like to visit different sailing areas or store the boat at home. The trailer does not have a license plate, which may be relevant for some buyers depending on the intended use and transport. Who is this Fletcher Arrowbeau 17 suitable for? This Fletcher Arrowbeau 17 is an appealing choice for buyers looking for a sporty speedboat for day trips, recreational sailing, and water sports on lakes and inland waters. You get a classic Fletcher model with a refreshed look, practical equipment, and a trailer that has recently received important updates. However, it is important to consider the attention needed for the Suzuki DT115, making this vessel particularly suitable for an enthusiast who wants to optimize the motor technically and get the most out of this fast, agile sports boat.
