Broker's Comments

This is a very tidy example of the ever popular and spacious Bounty 27 aft cockpit river cruiser. She has a current Boat Safety Certificate valid to July 2025 and her broads toll is paid to March 2022. She has a well running BMC 1.5 and is clean and dry and has solar panels and 5 batteries. Her screen fold to allow her to get to all areas of the broads network. Her mooring may also be available to the new owner by separate agreement with the marine she is berthed in.
She is very tidy and nicely presented by her owner fof three years who is now giving up boating due to age.
These are very popular river cruisers offering good accommodation with twin forward singles that convert to a good sized double berth with a small vanity close to the bed. Aft of that we have a very nice little dinette that can seat 4 comfortably. To Port there is a well equipped galley and a good sized heads compartment with shower. The cockpit is a good size with a good canopy and makes this a wonderful all weather boat. She starts and runs nicely and will be sure to delight her new owner.
She clean and dry and does not smell of damp etc.
One small issue (and it is not a major problem or expensive to fix) is she recently got caught by a fisherman’s weight on her small side screen which is now cracked and could do with replacing. This is simple and not expensive to do as its just a flat glass sheet about foot square and I estimate about £80-£100 to have this fixed
