Self-designed-Kormoran

Practical, comfortable and a joy to use: Kuhnle Shipyards Kormorans
The Kormoran line is traditional, elegant and attractive. It is a classic and will not be out of place in 20 to 30 years time. We believe in the Kormoran and are convinced it is the perfect waterway charterboat.However maybe you feel otherwise or you have different criteria and priorities, do not let that stop you. Different colour scheme, different doors, different floor coverings or ceiling linings, let us know your ideas. How about a hinged flagstaff on the cabin top or a bathing ladder with teak steps? Or wall coverings of beech? A handful of little changes can make your Kormoran something special to you - truly your own boat.

Technical equipment

The traditional exterior of the Komoran-series with its vertical sides enables the Kormoran interior to be equipped with the most modern appliances and equipment. The propeller for example is driven by hydraulics, this enables the power to be transferred at the push of a button to either the propeller or the bow-thruster. This has the dual benefit of more head-room inside and a more reliable bow-thruster (They do not cut off when over-heating as electrical bow-thrusters are prone to do).

We offer charters on our Kormorans so we have tried and tested every aspect of the boats and their equipment, you as a buyer benefit from our years of experience. Furthermore our boats have equipment that is tried and tested, we have found that it is far better to have traditional boats with solid practical equipment that works rather than fancy boats with fancy equipment that continually breaks down. For example our electrical system is specified to industrial standards and is very economical and easy to maintain, imperative in a marine environment.
