Worth knowing
Swiss Boats AG; cover, cost and conditions
Swiss Boats AG is a Swiss company that concentrates on pontoon boats. Its Starlounger boats do not sit on a conventional hull but on floats, with a flat deck and generous lounge seating above them. According to the maker, the floats are made of German polyethylene and divided into several chambers for stability and load capacity. Polyethylene, glassfibre and aluminium are the materials named for the build. Power comes from an outboard, an electric motor or both. The range is meant for lakes as much as for coastal water, and it trades a cabin for open space and a large lounge on deck.
Our model records hold a single Swiss Boats design, the Starlounger 7.5. It is filed as a motor catamaran because, like a twin hull boat, it rests on two separate floats. The entry starts with build year 2022 and runs into the most recent build years, so it is a current model. Length is 7.5 metres, beam 2.6 metres according to the builder, and it is rated for up to 14 people. Larger versions exist as well, the Starlounger 8.5 and the Starlounger 10.0, though they do not appear in our list. Any Starlounger 7.5 on the water today is therefore a young boat, and its fit out can differ a great deal depending on drive and lounge layout.
A pontoon boat asks for its own routine. Polyethylene floats shrug off knocks that would chip a gelcoat, yet the joints between floats and deck frame deserve a look every season, as do the aluminium fittings where they meet stainless fasteners. Boats with electric drive need battery care over the winter: kept charged, kept dry and not left fully empty for months. With up to 14 people on a flat deck, weight distribution matters more than on a monohull of the same length. When buying a used Starlounger, check the history of the batteries, the condition of the upholstery and whether the floats show any scoring from beaching.

Series by Swiss Boats AG, build years and cover
Starlounger 7.5 is a cabin catamaran from Swiss Boats AG, built since 2022.
As the Starlounger 7.5 by Swiss Boats AG series is still in production,
parts are available and repair costs are predictable.
Even so, value it at replacement cost including retrofitted electronics, not at list price.
For the Starlounger 7.5 by Swiss Boats AG series:
On catamarans the bridgedeck between the hulls is the sensitive part,
and the berth belongs in the application: double width often means a mooring rather than a marina.
