Remarks

This is a lovely little river cruiser, with much character and charm. Her owner has improved her interior layout and cruising flexibility with the addition of infill berth cushions to create a large double berth, making her more comfortable for both couples and also those with small children and a sense of adventure! Whilst sadly she does now require a full programme of structural and cosmetic works, she will be sure to bring much pleasure to her new owner once restored. An ideal - and very worthwhile - project for someone with the required skills and time.

THIS BOAT NEEDS A NEW HOME AND ANY OFFER WILL BE CONSIDERED!
