Broker's Comments

A superb and stylish sports cruiser designed for inland waterways, the Falcon 850 Capriole has a lot to offer and is presented in superb condition.

She is powered by a Nanni 4 Cylinder 45 hp diesel engine through a shaft to a 3 blade bronze propellor. She has diesel fired warm air heating, shower, electric toilet, fully folding radar arch (reducing the airdraft to 2.25 metres), a very generous cockpit area with generous seating for at least 6 people in comfort which is equipped with a separate fridge and wash basin.

She also benefits from having a bow thruster and the current owners have lots of paperwork and history of this beautiful boat.

The interior offers a separate aft cabin with good access and headroom and the fwd berth has 3 options re sleeping and dining.

The stunning blue hull looks crisp and is not fading. There are also sunpads for the fwd deck area, again in very good order.

Having spent nearly 2 hours onboard, I cannot find fault with her. This boat is an excellent all-rounder and really must be seen to be fully appreciated.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
