The first light of the day rests on frozen grass as you walk towards the boat. The wind bites your skin, reminding you to stay alert. The sea is already awake.

 

You head into the wheelhouse and turn on the Webasto heater. Pre-start checks feel routine, almost automatic. The temperature is already changing as you turn the ignition and feel the V10 wake up with a familiar, reassuring sound outside the wheelhouse. It gives you the same feeling as hearing the morning coffee brewing, knowing something good awaits. The sea is moving as you head out. You feel safe and in control. Soon, you are tying up at the office dock, ready for a day’s work.

 

A few months later, that same boat might be drifting quietly in a warm bay, somewhere along a sun-soaked coast. Family aboard. Music low. Coffee cups on the table in the aft lounge. Different setting, same feeling. The Coupe 830 fits both without effort.

 

At 8.30 metres long and 2.92 metres wide, it hosts up to ten people without feeling crowded. The layout adapts to how the day unfolds. Power at the stern reaches up to 425 hp, giving you confident performance when you need it.

Sporty looks, smooth rides

 

The Coupe 830 looks purposeful as it moves through the water. Clean lines suggest speed, but the real story starts at the helm.

 

The deep Vee delivers control and balance across all speed ranges. Settle into a comfortable cruise at around 25 knots or push on further, and you'll feel why this hull matters. It cuts through waves cleanly and lands softly. There is no sharp impact, no nervous movement. Just steady progress.

 

Steering stays precise, even when the pace increases. Feedback through the wheel is calm and predictable, reducing fatigue on longer runs and making short trips more enjoyable.

 

Hit the throttle in the Coupe 830, and you’ll go fast, even when conditions are not smooth like a race track. And rather than chasing maximum straight-line speed, as stepped hulls often do, the focus here is control. So you can carry speed into turns with confidence, knowing the traditional V-hull will respond exactly as expected.

 

This kind of predictability builds trust. It lets you read the water, adjust smoothly, and stay relaxed when conditions change. That is where real driving pleasure sits.

Discover the versatile aft lounge

 

On a wheelhouse boat, the aft deck works like a patio at home. It is where much of the day happens. This is where you enjoy the sun with easy water access, and if the cold creeps in, you can smoothly transition indoors. The Coupe 830 treats this area as a key part of the boat. It adapts to quiet moments at anchor, social evenings in the marina, and active family days with considered solutions.

 

The main sofa faces aft and sits protected by the wheelhouse. Large side windows block wind and lower noise, even while underway. Add the table and the space becomes ideal for lunch, coffee, or a satisfying dinner.

 

With a few simple changes, the mood shifts. Place a cushion between the two sofas to create a sun lounger, and add a sun sail for shade on warmer days.

 

The stern sofa offers generous storage, and the adjustable backrest lets you face forward or turn towards the swim platforms.

 

If you want an open deck, the modular stern sofa can be removed entirely. Fold down the main sofa along the wheelhouse wall and use the built-in cover behind the backrest to protect the cushions.

 

Whatever the day asks of you, the Coupe 830 is ready with a clear, practical answer.

From morning commutes when no jacket feels thick enough, to sun-drenched afternoons with family. This wheelhouse boat is there for it all, so you can make the most out of every moment.
