Broker's Comments

Very well cared for and presented Freeman 23 built in 1973 and powered by a Ford Sea Wolf cross flow petrol engine.
She is in her original gel coat and has the rarer "duck Blue" finish to the hull.
The woodwork is as one would hope for internally and there are definitely no leaking windows etc.
The bilges are spotless and she appears to be very much ready to turn the key and enjoy a holiday on the water.
New cutlass bearing, rudder, antifoul, horn, windscreen wipers, anchor light and navigation lights all replaced 2020 as recommended on survey report (2020)
