Broker's Comments

This vessel has recently been used as a live aboard. This ferro cement Samson C Master 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 (6 single beds, a master double, a saloon, forepeak and a wheel house).

She appears to have a good engine but taking her back to cruising would mean a bit more work but I'm sure it 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 looking at other Samsons on line to see the potential.
