Broker's Comments

This boat has been viewed and photographed by Steven of Boatshed Broker. Register or log in to see more photos of this boat. Yet another boat photographed on a damp, gloomy day but the quality of this MFV conversion shone through. Vast sums and months of traditional ship wrighting skills have been poured into this superb conversion. She benefits from new rigging, both standing and running, a new wardrobe of sails, a re-built engine and new interior upholstery. Originally built on the Isle of Skye, she spent many years shrimping in the North Atlantic. She is a very sturdy vessel and if you are looking for a MFV conversion for leisure or live-board, look no further. Start (and end) your search here. If you are considering doing a conversion yourself - don't. The figures just don't add up when the finished product is available at this price. Details are subject to contract. Note: Offers on the asking price will be considered.

Where the particulars herein give details of a boat, whether new or used, they are intended to give a fair description of the vessel but are not guaranteed as accurate or complete.

The vendor is not selling in the course of a business unless otherwise stated.

Personal property may be equipment or gear not permanently attached to the vessel including but not limited to: artwork, entertainment equipment, fishing equipment, TV receivers, recreational equipment, kayaks, tools, and personal appliances. Photos that may incidentally depict owners' personal property do not convey that such items are included in the sale of the vessel unless such items are specifically listed herein. At all times, where the particulars herein give details of a new boat and/or a new boat to be supplied/built by a builder/manufacturer, or a boat to be chartered, via our introduction, we do not guarantee or assume responsibility for the accuracy or reliability of any information offered by third-party companies in respect thereof including without limitation new boat builders/manufacturers, charter companies and/or companies/businesses which are ‘Friends of Boatshed’.
