Timeless class, carefully maintained

The Beaver Picnic Lounge 28, built by Yacht Yard De Rietschans, is a rare stylish day cruiser that combines craftsmanship, comfort, and performance. This Dutch quality boat from 1998 is in excellent condition and is a model of timeless elegance on the water.

Design & Finish

The sleek lines, classic silhouette, and rich finish with teak and mahogany give the Beaver 28 a unique appearance. The spacious open lounge cockpit with comfortable U-shaped seating invites you to relax while cruising and enjoy cozy drinks by the water. Below deck, there is a tidy forepeak with two sleeping places and a toilet, making the boat suitable for a weekend getaway.

The hull is made of high-quality polyester (GRP) with a teak deck and stylish details, ensuring a durable and low-maintenance construction.

Engine & Sailing Characteristics

Powered by two reliable Yanmar diesel engines (4JH3-DTE, each 125 hp), the Beaver 28 delivers convincing performance. The boat effortlessly reaches a top speed of around 22 knots, with a comfortable cruising speed between 20 and 24 knots.

The engines have only run for 1,450 hours and are in excellent condition, thanks to annual maintenance by the original yard – Yacht Yard De Rietschans itself.

Every winter, the boat is stored in professional winter storage at this yard, where all maintenance is also performed. This ensures a demonstrably high technical and cosmetic quality.
