Broker's Comments

This boat has been viewed and photographed by Peter Watt of Boatshed Portsmouth. Register or log in to see 43 more photos of this boat. Good is a word which was used repeatedly whilst aboard this Macwester. Good accommodation, Good equipment level, Good headroom and so on. It is possible to find boats which are excellent in SOME areas at this price. However to find boats of this age which are excellent in all areas you will undoubtedly have to pay at least three times this price to be in with a chance. In the meantime we can settle for GOOD in most areas for a modest sum. A good family cruiser for coastal waters and beyond. When you get to the engine and her, better than good output, you may emit a restrained "By Jove". Water-skiing isn't on the agenda but neither is standing still in a strong tide!. 53 H.P. and readily available parts supply. Enough said.
