Broker's Comments

Elysian 27 GRP River cruiser powered by a BMC 1.5 diesel engine offering 3 berths.

She benefits from having a new, quality canopy having being fitted recently along with new folding windows and frames.

A new fuel polypropylene fuel tank was fitted in 2007.
She is very sensibly priced and offers an ideal introduction to boating.

The Elysian 27's have been around a long time and these popular cruisers still offer all the main requirements re getting on to the water.

Ideal as a day boat/weekender. They were once a very popular choice with hire craft companies back in the day.

Spare winter canopy available.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
