Broker's Comments

It is rare to find a yacht in this size and price range,so well looked after that there is literally nothing that needs to be done!
The Trapper 240 is a modern yacht that would not look out of place at this years boat show, a tribute to her designer Ed Dubois. Fractional rigged with a heavy lifting keel (hydraulically powered) she will give her owner lots of fun 'around the cans' or coastal cruising. With her lifting keel she can visit the picturesque harbours denied to her deep finned bretheren!
She would make a good first boat for a growing family, or a retirement present for a 'single-hander'. Her owner of eight years has kept her in immaculate condition and she benefits from new rigging, genoa and heads and a recent Honda 4 stroke motor.
