Broker's Comments

Built in 1994, but rebuilt by Berthon in 2003..with an extensive refit and improvement programme...
The words "No Expense Spared" are often over used, this is simply not the case this time.....your ultimate Aqua-Star Nelson 46 has to be the Best Anywhere.....total extensive refit from the shafts upwards, including the installation of computer controlled Stabilizers.A Great deal of money and superb craftsmanship has gone into delivering exactly what the owner's wanted.
This is unlike any other Aquastar 46,She is quite exceptional and offers excellent sea-keeping together with completly revamped systems and cosmetics,she
must be seen to be appreciated.
