Finn-Es 26 motorboat sunk, Kuopio

For sale: a Finnish-built Finn-Es 26 boat, manufactured in Porvoo, with a Mercruiser 4.3-litre engine. The boat sank in summer 2025 and is sold for repair or spare parts. After sinking, the engine and auxiliary equipment were drained of water and the oil was changed twice, with oil also added on top of the pistons. The water channels were also drained. However, the engine has not been started; it has only been turned from the crankshaft.

The boat is a 1989 model and the engine was upgraded in 2001!

The boat has plenty of equipment, some of which is certainly still functional, including a Wallas heater, solar panel, rod holders, planer reels, auxiliary engine bracket, water toilet with septic tank, freshwater system, trim tabs, etc.

The fin on the sterndrive has broken off and the propeller has been damaged.

The boat’s layout is well designed. In good weather, with the aft canopies lowered and the roof hatch open, you can travel as in an open boat; in poorer weather, the canopies can be closed again. At the bow is a spacious cabin with a closable door and toilet.
