Broker's Comments

This vessel is a fine example of a traditional broads/coastal/estuary cruiser. During a 1995 refit she was completely stripped & rebuilt, literally every piece of timber (decks, wheelhouse, cabin sides and interior) having been replaced to a superb standard. The engines & gearboxes were also rebuilt at this time. The interior is warm, inviting & user friendly.
Sadly due to lack of use this season there is now some remedial work to be done to the interior coachroof mahogony trim due to water ingress. This is cosmetic but needs to be done, however it is well within the capability of our local shipwrights, or indeed a competant diy woodworker.
A recent price reduction reflects this requirement.
