This history is reflected in its practical design and clear focus on functional use. If you are looking for a freight push barge for use on inland waterways, or a robust barge for transport and support during operations, this SB508 offers an interesting starting point. The boat is offered via Boatauction and will be auctioned as a lot, allowing interested parties to assess it based on the available information and attached documentation. With its steel hull, it is designed for work: think of moving materials, supporting projects on canals and ditches, or functioning as a platform for maintenance work on lakes and rivers. The SB508 has been used commercially, making it particularly suitable for parties seeking a proven steel workboat. Vrachtduwbak SB508 now available in online auction. Everyone can bid until May 18, 2026. What type of boat is the SB508 exactly? The SB508 is a freight push barge, meaning it has no own propulsion or steering system. It is intended to be pushed or towed by a pusher or tugboat. This explains why steering, rudder, and helm are listed as not applicable. For buyers looking for an inland push barge to serve as a loading platform or work pontoon with transport functions, this type is particularly attractive due to its simplicity and immediate usability within a push or tow combination. What are its dimensions and what does that mean in practice? According to the provided information, it measures approximately 22 meters in length. The other measurements are also included in the lot information. In practice, such length means that the boat is well-suited for operations on inland waterways where maneuverability and logistics are important, such as urban routes, canal areas, and project locations with limited space. At the same time, a barge of this size typically offers sufficient cargo space for commercial applications. It has been used on inland waterways, canals and ditches, lakes, ponds, and rivers, indicating that its area of operation has been broad. What documents are available and what is their status? This freight push barge comes with documents that are essential for many buyers. There is a measurement certificate present with number HN 13042, valid until October 16, 2035. Additionally, there is an SI certificate mentioned (SI 12047 C), which was valid until March 6, 2019. All details can be found in the documents attached to the lot. The ENI number is unknown or not present. For interested parties who value paperwork and history, it’s reassuring that at least a valid measurement certificate is available and that the other certification information has been transparently provided. What condition is the boat in and what can you expect from a steel workboat from 1969? The condition is listed as good. At the same time, it’s important to approach it as a steel workboat with a long career in the public and commercial sector. This means it was built to work and its value lies primarily in its function, construction, and usability options. For a buyer considering a steel push barge, it makes sense to plan for an inspection and potential maintenance or painting suited to its intended use. For what applications is it interesting if you buy it now? The SB508 can be attractive for contractors, hydraulic engineers, land managers, and logistics companies looking for an inland workboat. Consider transporting materials, temporarily storing equipment on water, or using it as a stable working platform during maintenance of quaysides, bridges or banks. It’s also a logical candidate for organizations seeking a practical freight push barge for project-based use precisely because it lacks complex propulsion or steering systems onboard which keeps operations straightforward. This Vrachtduwbak SB508 is offered via Boatauction. It invites you into a new phase: back to work in a role that fits its character as a no-nonsense push barge with an extensive track record. Potential buyers should review the lot attachments carefully to align its capabilities with their intended navigation area and desired use.
