Broker's Comments

Aft cockpit sport cruiser built in the 70's. The forerunner to the Fairline Holiday the Vixen proved to be quite popular in her short production run. The boat is really a weekender as there is no longer gas on board so cooking is by way of a portable gas hob if required. There is a sink unit built in. Otherwise even at her age she can provide some fun as she will still get on to the plane with a light load. This boat does not boast a host of goodies and maybe needs a little upgrade here and there but she could be made to be quite a tasty little boat once again. There is a new canopy fitted at a cost of £700.00 which will be good for a good 5 years or so. The engine has been well maintained and the bilge is clean.
Broads River Taxed until March 2012.
Having her own purpose built trailer means you could explore other waterways.
