Broker's Comments

This Swedish motor cruiser is as you would expect well built and very well designed. Like many Scandinavian designs the use of space is excellent; the cockpit houses the galley and a good sized dining area as well as the helm. The cosy saloon area then has ample storage and seating, with access to the portside double cabin and the heads. The aft cabin is accessed from the cockpit and this again has well designed storage and a hand basin.
Powered by the Volvo 160hp diesel the boat is capable of cruising at up to 18 knots.
As you can see from the details and photographs above this boat is a very nice well maintained example of this sought after motor yacht.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
PS: For those Harry Potter fans out there - this is a boat not a broom stick!
