Worth knowing
Windboat; cover, cost and conditions
Windboat is a Russian builder of small aluminium boats. Trade listings show the brand with two product lines, Evo and EvoFish, both conceived as fishing boats and spanning roughly four to five metres. The Windboat 4.0 Evo gives a sense of scale: 1.75 metres wide, 30 centimetres of draft, rated for a 20 hp outboard and three people, and placed in CE design category C for inshore waters. The boats are easy to place by their light alloy hulls and by model names that anticipate the length in metres, so 4.0 means just under four metres and 4.5 about four and a half.
Our model records hold two designs, both listed as motorboats. The Windboat 4.0 Evo measures 3.98 metres and is recorded for build years 2017 to 2023, while the Windboat 4.5 DC EvoFish reaches 4.52 metres and runs from 2019 to 2023. In boatbuilding the letters DC usually stand for dual console, with a console on each side and a walkway between them. Neither design reaches into the most recent build years in our data; both entries end with 2023. In our records the brand therefore spans a narrow band: open aluminium boats between four and four and a half metres, sized for a road trailer and an outboard engine.
Aluminium hulls forgive a lot, from launching on gravel to nudging a rocky bank, but they need watching where dissimilar metals meet. Stainless fittings, the outboard bracket and any anode deserve a look, because galvanic corrosion starts quietly. Rivets and welded seams should be checked for weeping after a hard season. On a used boat, ask for the engine's service history and look closely at the transom, which carries the full load of the outboard. The trailer matters just as much: rollers, lights and wheel bearings take a beating on the slipway. Rinsing with fresh water after a day in brackish water keeps the alloy in good order.
