Driven by Gustav’s passion for engineering, navigation, and craftsmanship, the boat was built almost entirely by hand in a private workshop. It features an insulated steel hull, extensive interior carpentry, a six-cylinder Deutz diesel engine, a remote-controlled steering and propulsion system, and a full domestic interior including a bathroom, kitchen, and sleeping quarters.
Launched via a large mobile crane directly into the Kiel Canal, an event broadcast live by NDR Fernsehen, the Regusta C was immediately taken on successful test voyages across the Eider River, Tönning, Rendsburg, and along the Nord-Ostsee-Kanal, validating its hydrodynamic performance and mechanical reliability.
This boat is not just a personal achievement, but a showcase of independent boatbuilding and the precision possible through years of self-driven innovation and collaborative local support.
