Remarks

The Jaguar 27 is a ideal racer/cruiser for both coastal and inland waters with ample interior space, good standing headroom and a separate heads for overnighting in comfort. The previous owners carried out extensive refits around 2005-2008 and with some components of the boat no longer original and are upgrades from the factory stock.

After repairs were made to the usual deck star cracks of older GRP boats, illness and bad weather have prevented the current owner from finishing the job and a few hours of deck repainting remains to be done by the new owner. The unpainted parts are already thoroughly cleaned and prepared and the paint is supplied ready to go.

Otherwise, she is presented as a tidy boat with her accommodation in good clean condition having recently been re-upholstered.

It is understood that the vessel's current Broads mooring, which is in a very desirable location, is understood to be transferrable and is available by separate negotiation.
