Avis sur le sea storm 17'

SeaStorm 17 is a 17-foot HDPE motor boat built around durability and low upkeep rather than luxury. Publicly listed dimensions cluster around 5.17–5.18 m in length, 1.97–2.20 m in beam depending on listing, with a lightweight hull of about 380 kg and a planing, coastal-capable CE C design. The wide stance and relatively high freeboard support its reputation as a stable small utility boat.

On the water, the model is generally described as lively and easy to drive with moderate outboards. Independent test coverage shows roughly 29 knots with a 60 hp engine, while the boat is commonly marketed with recommended power around 40–60 hp and a higher maximum rating in some listings. That gives it flexible real-world performance, though the strongest numbers come only with the right setup and propeller choice.

Comfort is functional rather than plush. It is advertised for six people, with practical storage volumes and a layout aimed at day use, but there is no cabin in the conventional cruising sense, so protection from spray, sun, and wind is limited. For buyers who want a tough, simple, easily maintained small boat with decent performance and good value, it makes sense; those seeking overnighting comfort should look elsewhere.
