Marieholm Catalina M22 now available in online auction. Everyone can bid until May 18, 2026. Marieholm Catalina M22 (1972) – sporty fiberglass motorboat with Volvo Penta inboard and comfortable weekend layout. For those seeking a compact, characterful motorboat with a Scandinavian aesthetic and surprisingly versatile usage options, this 1972 Marieholm Catalina M22 presents an interesting opportunity. Marieholm is known for building solid fiberglass vessels with timeless lines, and this model combines a manageable size with a layout that invites day trips, weekend getaways, and short vacations on inland waters. With a length of approximately 7.50 meters and a width of 2.50 meters, the boat is easy to maneuver in harbors and locks, while the relatively shallow draft of about 0.60 meters expands the navigable area towards shallower lakes, channels, and sheltered natural areas. Marieholm Catalina M22 now available in online auction. Everyone can bid until May 18, 2026. Design, dimensions, and performance on inland waters The Catalina M22 is a boat that steers pleasantly and offers a calm boating experience. The owner describes its handling as comfortable and easy to control, with the ability to cruise faster when conditions and waterways allow. Thanks to its air draft of approximately 2.00 meters, this Marieholm is suitable for many Dutch inland waterways with bridges and fixed obstacles, enhancing its practical usability for touring trips and route planning. The fiberglass hull is a popular choice for those looking for low-maintenance material with a neat finish and classic appearance. The boat was last out of the water for maintenance in 2026, and the most recent antifouling treatment dates back to 2023. Engine and performance: Volvo Penta inboard (2025) with sporty potential A notable advantage is the inboard engine: a (refurbished) Volvo Penta was installed in 2025 with electric start. With an output of 90 horsepower and only about 20 running hours, this setup offers significant potential for those seeking a compact motorboat with extra power at hand. The cruising speed is reported around 8 km/h, while the maximum speed can reach approximately 30 km/h, making this Marieholm Catalina M22 appealing for both leisurely cruising and faster planing on suitable routes. The fuel tank has a capacity of about 100 liters. On board are instruments such as a fuel gauge and temperature meter, contributing to clarity while cruising. It is important to mention that there is a known issue: there has been a problem with the fuel supply following installation. For buyers who enjoy tinkering or prefer to have it resolved by a specialist, this is a concrete point to consider during negotiations. Comfort and accommodation: sleeping on board and practical amenities Below deck, the boat offers compact yet usable accommodation for overnight stays. There are two fixed berths and one additional berth possible, allowing a couple or small family to spend weekends on board. The headroom inside is approximately 1.60 meters, typical for this type of cabin cruiser: sufficient for comfortable sitting and moving around while emphasizing cozy living spaces and practical use. For simple meals, there is a cooking stove onboard along with mattresses. There is also a manual toilet where the waste discharge does not go directly into open water—a detail that many water sports enthusiasts appreciate regarding cleanliness while navigating ports and natural areas. Electrical system, navigation equipment, and exterior fittings The electrical system is set up for both 12V and 220V use. Shore power is available for use in harbor along with solar panels as an additional energy source, which is handy for recharging batteries while onboard. In total, there are two batteries present. In terms of navigation and depth information, the boat features a depth gauge and fishfinder which can provide extra assurance on unfamiliar inland waters. Externally, the equipment focuses on comfort: a bimini top provides shelter against wind and spray while the swim platform with ladder makes it easy to swim or dock for breaks. Two anchors are included with chain and line offering flexibility when anchoring or in emergencies. Complete package ready for immediate use with versatile plans Practical accessories such as cushions, anchors, ropes, fenders, a gas bottle, and water jerrycans are included in the sale. The current owner purchased the boat in Zwartsluis in 2023 and refurbished it internally; an important upgrade being the installed Volvo Penta inboard engine in 2025. The vessel has been used on inland waters for day trips, weekends away, and vacations—well-suited to the character of this type of Marieholm motorboat. This Marieholm Catalina M22 thus represents an attractive choice for buyers looking for a sporty yet manageable cabin cruiser with classic lines, practical equipment, and the ability to cruise both leisurely or at speed—with the clear focus being on resolving the fuel supply issue for optimal boating enjoyment.
