Broker's Comments

This was a classic and popular motor cruiser in her day. Built in 1955 we share the same age, and there is much evidence to suggest we have seen better days, however it does have great charm, and one gets the sense of reliability and still much to see and do.
This boat would suit me, but for the maintainance and tlc needed but there is a lot to offer the person who wants this as part of his boating pleasure. She is a lot of boat for the money.
