An absolute rarity. The pairing is unique worldwide.

In the 1950s it was fashionable to buy a car with the matching boat. The 'Sea Fury' was built in 1956 with the matching 60 hp Seaking outboard motor comes from the first series of the new fibreglass boats. I'm not aware of any other boats from this year.

Following expert advice from ADAC Munich and Dekra, this special vehicle has been preserved for posterity - almost in its original condition and with 'matching numbers'. Vehicle, boat and trailer are fully functional and can be registered at any time. H license plate possible on request.

The car and boat were inseparable for 66 years and in the USA until 2019 where I discovered them by accident at a dealer in California. The previous American owner cared for the vehicle until he had to give it away for age reasons. According to the papers no previous damage is known. The DEKRA report also proves no accident damage. While the boat had to be extensively restored, the car was largely left in its original condition. Only the paintwork was renewed by the previous owner.
It has a fantastic patina. Only defective and missing parts were replaced according to Dekra reports. The technology is in excellent condition. Engine, transmission, etc. run and shift almost perfectly. All defective parts were replaced or repaired according to expert opinion and then it was accepted as free of defects by Dekra.
Due to the historical importance of this vehicle, the interior has been left in its original condition (i.e. with patina), in accordance with the recommendations of the Turin Carta.
