Broker's Comments

Chris Craft 281 Sport Cruiser built in 1984 that has really impresssed me. She is a lovely looking boat and has so many features and upgrades she really does stand out as being one of the best available boats of her type.
She has Twin diesel engines (shaft driven) Bow and Stern thrusters, electric windlass, Electric toilet with diverter valve to sea, she offers 6 berth plus a double summer berth in the spacious cockpit area, hot water by diesel fired heater, warm air heating, radiator in the heads, Calorifier with immersion heater, Galvanic Isolator, New Canopy (2020), Folding Windscreens and more.
She really is a very well cared for example in original gelcoat with no signs of damage or repair.
She was last out of the water in 2020 for a polish and anti foul.
Add to this the option of the idylic mooring on one of Norfolks most desireable Broads this boat and location really must be seen to be fully appreciated.
