Request a quoteThe Como 28 Open is an 8.7-metre open electric tender from the Hungarian builder Como Yachts, with an eight-person cockpit and no cabin or berths. It is built in vacuum-infused carbon epoxy over a Petestep hull, and the standard-range configuration pairs a 79 kWh battery with a 140 kW Bosch marine motor. Como publishes speed and range in kilometres per hour and kilometres only, so no knots or nautical-mile figures are quoted here.

What a buyer should know
Who it suits
The Como 28 Open is a superyacht tender or a fast lake and coastal runabout for an owner who wants meaningful electric performance rather than silent pottering. A 140 kW motor on 79 kWh in a 1,950 kg carbon hull is a high-power, moderate-energy combination: the specification is built for short, quick passages and for arriving somewhere, not for all-day range at speed. Owners doing 30-minute shuttle runs will get far more out of it than owners planning six-hour coastal days.
The construction case
Vacuum-infused carbon epoxy over a Petestep hull is a serious specification for a boat this size, and it is the main technical argument for the price bracket this sits in. Low weight matters more on an electric boat than on a combustion one, since every kilogram saved is range you did not have to buy in battery.
Caveats
Como publishes performance in km/h and km only, so anyone comparing it against Scandinavian or British electric boats will have to convert, and there is no published nautical-mile figure to check against. The long-range configuration exists precisely because the standard pack is modest relative to the motor — establish which version a quoted price refers to. Como is also a young builder without a long service record, which is worth factoring in on a boat of this value.
Written from the builder’s published specifications and the wider market, not from testing the boat ourselves. Always confirm figures with the manufacturer before committing.
