Marathon 980AK ready for boating enjoymentAnyone looking for a comfortable steel motorboat for weekend getaways, holidays, or simply a relaxing day on the water will find this Marathon 980AK an appealing candidate. She was built in 1988 at the yard in Akkrum, which immediately makes her special: according to reports, only sixteen of this model were built. With her length of 10 metres, beam of 3.40 metres and a hard-chine hull, the boat feels at home on a wide range of inland waters—from lakes and waterways to rivers, canals and ditches. Thanks to an air draft of approx. 2.50 metres and a draught of about 0.90 metres, she is also suitable for many Dutch cruising areas where you’d like to go just that bit further.

Inside, the pleasant headroom of around 2.00 metres stands out immediately. This creates a sense of space and calm, even with several people on board. The layout is practical and inviting: one cabin with two sleeping cabins, a galley, and a wet cell with shower and electric toilet. The toilet discharge does not go directly into open water and a holding tank is fitted. With two fixed berths and two additional berths, the Marathon 980AK is suitable for couples who want to travel in comfort, as well as for those who occasionally want to bring guests along.
What makes this Marathon 980AK special?Her Akkrum origin and limited production run give this boat a distinctive character. In addition, she is steel-built with a stated plate thickness of 5 mm—something many enthusiasts appreciate in a steel motorboat. In 2023 she was completely repainted and fitted with a new canopy and new railing cloth. An older canopy is also available for winter use, which is practical if you want to use her in the colder season or protect her during longer periods alongside.
How does she handle and what can you expect from the engine?She is powered by a Mercedes OM 615 diesel engine producing 63 hp, an inboard with electric start. The stated consumption is around 2.5 litres per hour, making her attractive for longer inland cruises. Cruising speed is around 9.5 km/h with a maximum of approx. 12 km/h—ideal for relaxed touring. On board you’ll find, among other instruments, a tachometer, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge and fuel gauge, so you can keep a good eye on the key readings while underway. With a 400-litre diesel tank, you also have a generous range for holidays and multi-day trips.
Is she suitable for comfortable living on board?Yes, this Marathon 980AK is set up for genuine onboard living. In the galley you’ll find amenities such as a cooker, refrigerator and freezer, and there is hot water. The dinette invites long evenings inside, while the hot-air heating can keep things comfortable in spring and autumn as well. With a 150-litre water tank and an 88-litre holding tank, you can easily manage for a while—especially if you alternate between marinas and mooring out.
What about manoeuvring and exterior equipment?Mooring and manoeuvring are supported by an electric bow thruster, which many skippers consider a major plus—especially in wind or tight berths. Steering is via a wheel and there is a dual helm station, giving you flexibility in different conditions. Outside she is equipped with, among other things, a sprayhood, bimini, cockpit tent, exterior cushions, guardrails, bathing platform and swim ladder. This makes her suitable for sunny days as well as sheltered cruising in changeable weather. Fenders and lines are included, and there is an anchor with chain and a manual anchor winch.
When was she last out of the water?According to the information provided, the boat was last taken out of the water in 2025 for maintenance, and the antifouling treatment was also carried out in 2025. This is reassuring for buyers who want to start the season with a steel motorboat without immediately having to plan major work.
Electrically, she is also practically equipped with shore power, alternator, battery charger, inverter and voltmeter. Three batteries are installed and you have 12V, 220V and 24V on board. For navigation and safety there are, among other items, a depth sounder, VHF radio, rudder position indicator, electric bilge pump and a lifebuoy.
This Marathon 980AK is being auctioned via BoatAuction and is a great choice for anyone looking for a 10-metre steel motorboat with bow thruster, dual helm station, a comfortable layout and a warm, inviting atmosphere on board. She appears well cared for, with a few small spots here and there as you might expect for a boat of this age, but above all with plenty of potential to head straight out for beautiful cruises. Stainless-steel davits are supplied loose, as are life jackets, completing her equipment for new memories on the water.
