M&D Boote; cover, cost and conditions
M&D Boote (MD 460 Open) is the name behind the MD family of compact motorboats. We hold no verified details on the builder's home or history, so this page sticks to what the model records show. The names tell you most of what you need: MD, then a three digit number that roughly matches the length in centimetres, then the layout. Open marks the open boats, Sundeck the versions with a sun deck, so an MD 490 Open is an open boat of just under five metres.
Our records hold nine entries, all motorboats, under eight model names, because the MD 620 Sundeck appears twice: once for 2017 to 2022 and once from 2018 into the latest build years. Five are Open models (MD 460, 490, 500, 555 and 560) and three are Sundeck models (MD 565, 570 and 620). The MD 555 Open is the earliest, from 2015, while most other lines start in 2018. Lengths run from 4.55 metres for the MD 460 Open to 6.4 metres for the MD 620 Sundeck, and seven of the nine entries stay below 5.7 metres.
Every MD fits on a road trailer, so these boats usually live on the drive or in a dry stack and meet the water at weekends, on lakes, rivers or a sheltered piece of coast. Rinse hull and trailer after a day in salt water, check the winch strap, lights and wheel bearings before a long tow, and flush the engine. An open boat parked on its trailer stays in better shape under a roof or a tight tarpaulin, with loose gear taken home.
