Remarks

This large and well presented Aquafibre 38 Broads motor cruiser offers spacious and very well appointed accommodation for up to six (overnight in four cabins) and plenty of room for entertaining! 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 electric sliding canopy. With her attractive and homely open-plan living area, and three dedicated sleeping cabins, she offers great scope for use as a liveaboard vessel for a couple with children, or those who wish to have regular guests staying on board overnight. An ideal pied-a-terre!
