| Broker's Comments
The Birchwood Commodore, described by Motor Boat and Yachting magazine as "well built and well engineered and suitable for river or sea", is a true classic. This particular example has been well cared for during the last six years that she has been with the current owners. She is well equiped and has been used for extensive cruising around the East and South coast.
