Broker's Comments

The last Samphire 23 to be molded. The owner bought the molds which are now no longer available.

This is a home finished interior and needs finishing.

The Hull was molded in 1993 and the boat was "commissioned" and put on the water for one season in 1995. Its been ashore ever since.

Technically, you could sail off in this modified Samphire 23 but it would be better to complete the interior to make it a usable cruising yacht.

As always, putting a price on what is, pretty much, an unused 15 year old yacht is tricky. So the owner wants to try £9k but is realistic and wishes to sell.

Give me a call if you are interested and I will talk you through the boat.

These boat details are subject to contract.
