Broker's Comments

This an exceptionally seaworthy little boat which has helped the current through some difficult conditions.
It has loads of character and lots more life left in it yet.
It is basically sound but could do with some internal refurbishment.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
