Remarks

Offering superb potential as a liveaboard vessel, this 42 foot Aquafibre Broads motor cruiser has space for all the family! With accommodation split over five cabins and two heads compartments (both with shower), she offers spacious and well appointed accommodation for personal use, and additionally great scope for possible business or holiday let use. In common with most Aquafibre boats (which were built locally until 2009), she has a low air draft enabling access to the full Norfolk Broads network of rivers by lowering her sliding canopy, but she would be equally well suited to use on other inland waterways (beam permitting) such as the River Thames, etc. You really need to view this Aquafibre 42 in order to fully appreciate the space that she offers!
