Broker's Comments

Everyone knows if you want a steel boat you go to Holland, thats where this one comes from and she proves why the Dutch are the best. Her hull is so fair and true, at first glance you would never believe she wasnt GRP. Her engine, hull, rig and interior are in great condition and with only the smallest amount of work she would be A1 presentation. A seaworthy and comfortable boat which has been places and could again. She will appeal to someone who knows the difference between a real boat and a 'plastic fantastic'.
