Broker's Comments
This is a fully loaded boat, including bow thruster, Eberspacher cabin heating, windlass and plenty of electronics. Add to this the diesel engine option and a boat that has been UK supplied through the official importer and all in all, it is a very desirable sports cruiser.
The engine has just been serviced and the leg has had a "leg off" service. Dec 2005.
Boats this well equipped are not easy to find, so, I would advise an early inspection.
