Zwaluwsloep 8.50 Elektrisch

Besla 850 Swallow Sloop – Fully Electric – Rosso Corsa – Like-New Condition

A particularly beautiful Zwaluwsloep Besla 850 with a fully electric propulsion system, an aluminum hull, and a very high-quality finish. This 8.50-meter-long sloop was built in 2024, launched in 2025, and is in like-new condition.

The Zwaluwsloep immediately stands out thanks to its color scheme. The aluminum hull is finished in the Ferrari color Rosso Corsa, applied with a high-quality two-component paint. Combined with the beautifully painted wooden gunwales, the Flexteak, and the dark convertible top, the boat has a stylish and distinctive appearance.

With a length of 8.50 meters, this is also a particularly spacious sloop. The generous round seating area offers plenty of room and makes the boat ideal for long days on the water with family or friends.

Fully Electric Propulsion

The Zwaluwsloep is equipped with a Vetus 7.5 kW electric motor and a battery pack consisting of 8 240 Ah batteries. According to the manufacturer, this provides a range of approximately 9 hours. This makes the electric sloop suitable not only for a short cruise but also for a full day of relaxed cruising. The major advantage, of course, is the quietness on board. No diesel engine running in the background—just virtually silent cruising and the chance to fully enjoy the surroundings.

A bow thruster is also included for maneuvering, which makes docking and navigating in smaller harbors and canals considerably easier.

Electric boating is becoming increasingly appealing

Choosing a fully electric sloop is not only comfortable but also appealing in light of developments surrounding zero-emission boating.

For example, an emission-free zone for recreational boats has been in effect in the center of Amsterdam since April 1, 2025. Transition rules apply to gasoline and diesel boats, while fully electric recreational boats have access to the emission-free zone under the current regulations.

With this Zwaluwsloep, you therefore have a boat that aligns perfectly with the trend toward increasingly emission-free boating.

Space and Comfort Onboard

A great deal of attention has been paid to both space and finish on board. The wide benches offer plenty of room for a larger group, and the open layout leaves plenty of room to move around. Virtually the entire boat is fitted with Flexteak. Its warm character complements the varnished wooden gunwale beautifully and creates a striking contrast with the Rosso Corsa hull.

This Zwaluwsloep is also fully equipped for practical use. For example, there is a restroom on board, and the boat features a new convertible top, allowing the sloop to be used comfortably even in less-than-ideal weather.

Why this boat?

This Besla 850 Zwaluwsloep combines features that are rarely found together in a single boat. An 8.50-meter aluminum sloop, fully electrically powered, with an estimated 9 hours of cruising time, and launched as recently as 2025. Furthermore, the boat is very spacious and is in like-new condition.

The finish in official Ferrari Rosso Corsa two-component paint, the painted wooden gunwale, and the Flexteak also give the sloop a look all its own.

An interesting choice for anyone looking for a relatively new electric sloop with plenty of space, a quiet propulsion system, and a finish that’s just a little different from the norm.
