Broker's Comments

Currently used as a live aboard, this ferro cement Samson 38 was designed for blue water cruising.

Although she's looking a bit rough around the edges at the moment, there is plenty of space inside this strong hull to make a good and comfortable living area (2 cabins, a saloon and a wheel house). Taking her back to sea would mean a bit more work but I'm sure would be well worth it and would make a great project that could be lived aboard whilst the work was carried out. It's worth checking out other similar Samsons on line to see their potential.

A lot of boat for the money here, with good yard rates for living aboard in her current position.

No proof of VAT status.
