Not What You'd Expect! Lowlander Speedster 851 | Full Walkthrough | The Marine Channel

In this video, we step aboard the Lowlander 851 Speedster, an eye-catching Dutch day boat that takes inspiration from classic automotive design while bringing some serious performance to the water. At just over 8.5 metres, the 851 Speedster is built around a distinctive stepped hull designed to balance speed, stability, and efficiency. With the Performance version capable of reaching up to 53 knots, this is a boat that puts performance firmly at the heart of its design. At the same time, its central helm, generous seating, and wide aft bathing platform make it surprisingly versatile for relaxed days on the water. What makes the Lowlander particularly interesting is the way it combines this performance-focused approach with genuine weekend-boating capability. Beneath the deck is accommodation for two, along with a separate toilet, while the highly customisable interior and exterior finishes allow each boat to be tailored to its owner. Lowlander is a young Dutch boatbuilder with a philosophy centred around balance, control, and purposeful design, rather than simply chasing numbers. The 851 Speedster is the first model to bring that philosophy to life, with the company drawing on experience in high-performance engineering to create something distinctly different from the usual day boat. A huge thank you to the team at Lowlander Boats for giving us access to the 851 Speedster. https://lowlander-boats.com/ If you enjoy detailed yacht and boat tours, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and turn on notifications for more marine content.
