One of the small boats that drew a lot of attention at the 2024 Miami Boat Show was the Lekker Damsko 750. Built in Holland out of thick aluminum, it’s based on traditional Dutch canal boats you might see plying the back waterways of Amsterdam. She’ll carry upwards of 20 passengers, boasts a small forward cabin for a nap—complete with a toilet, and the color choices for hulls, fabrics and flooring are vast and varied. But her secret sauce is a V8 Mercury turbodiesel, capable of pushing this anything-but-sleek little vessel to 50 knots! Power & Motoryacht’s Editor-in-Chief Daniel Harding drove one a few years ago and called the boat “an absolute blast.” Here, senior Editor Chris Dixon and Passagemaker Editor-in-Chief Jeff Moser step aboard and break her down.
