Broker's Comments

This classic vessel is in good condition and offers liveaboard comfort and lifestyle, in addition to wide cruising options.

The current owner has owned and dilligently improved this boat for two decades, sailing in coastal, estuarine and inland waterways. The new mast (2015) is of Canadian Spruce and is easily lowered, providing an airdraft suitable for most bridge heights, across European inland waterways.

The boat is in commission, benefiting from a little used engine, spacious interior and a workshop / storage area. Overall, this boat has a comfortable, warm feel, alongside the potential for extensive, reliable cruising and a fascinating and historic character.

These boat details are subject to contract.
