Broker's Comments
Owned for the past 17 years this boat has been very well cared for by the owner.
Every year she is taken out of the water and replanked whenever and wherever needed.
Internally she is as she should be, clean, dry and free from damp and all the original features have been retained.
The aft saloon is a good size and easily caters for adults in comfort. One thing I was really impressed with was the size of the fwd cabin with a "V" berth arrangement, this really is a good size offering 2 good sized bunks or a large double.
Externally she is looking good and aside from a few "blisters" in the aft cabin coachroof (which by the way have no moisture in them) she is difficult to fault.
All in all a classic sole survivor from a bygone era that has been very well cared for in every department.
