STERK Unveils the 26: Trailerable German Engineering

Nuremberg-based boatbuilder STERK has announced the launch of the new STERK 26, the company’s first EU-trailerable model. Weighing under 3.5 tonnes, the 26 blends STERK’s hallmark performance with a format that offers owners greater flexibility on and off the water.

Since its founding, STERK has introduced three models: the 31 RC (Rear Cabin), the 31 WB (Wet Bar) and now the new 26. From the outset, petrol outboard power from Yamaha will be available. The brand’s two-step hull design delivers efficient running, with the ICE versions consuming up to 30% less fuel than comparable craft. This not only reduces operating costs but also helps cut CO₂ emissions.

From 2026, the 26 will also be offered with an electric drivetrain in partnership with Vision Marine Technologies. This version, launching first in North America, promises near-silent running and marks another step in STERK’s commitment to sustainable boating.

Despite its trailerable footprint, the STERK 26 is designed for versatility and comfort. On board features include:

• A spacious cabin with a separate shower and toilet
• A fully equipped wet bar with cooking station
• Large storage capacity
• Two generous sunbeds
• Stern passage to the swim platform

The STERK 26 will make its first appearance at boot Düsseldorf. Reservations open next week via authorised dealers or directly at:
