Broker's Comments

Register with Boatshed to see 53 extra photos of this Birchwood Empress .
This craft is in excellent condition for its age and is a credit to the current owners who have maintained and updated it regardless of cost.
It is unusual in that it is built on a Powles hull which gives it exceptional seaworthyness and the owners say it is a dry boat in rough weather always helming from above.
They have cruised the East coast extensively as far as the Thames estuary.
Last winter the antifouling was completely removed then 2 coats of International Gelshield applied before re- antifouling.
It has a BSC till 2008.
With tons of storage space and fully equipped it is ready to go now and would make a perfect live-aboard in the UK or abroad.
The owners are keen to sell.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
