Broker's Comments

Dutch Steel cruiser kept in good condition by her previous owners.
She is a very clean boat with exceptionally clean engines and bilges.
She had a full pre purchase survey in
2017.
She was recently used a s a "live aboard" by her current owners and she is an ideal long stay cruiser with heating and 240v shore power.
A good size galley with 4 burner cooker is on the port side opposite a newly created dining area.
There are 2 new extra large poly water tanks.
The current mooring is available should the new owner wish to keep her in her present location near Loddon Norfolk.
This boat has a very welcoming feel and is an ideal retreat either permanently or to escape the busy lifestyle.
She is Broads Licensed and has a BSC until 2022.
Anyone looking to enjoy serious longer term cruising abroad or wanting a luxury live
aboard this boat has to be seen.
There is a full photographic record of the intensive upkeep of this boat along with original manuals, service history and so on.
She has new upholstery, had blinds fitted to all windows and had 2 new electric toilets fitted.
The mooring is available at a cost of only £1600 per annum.
You could be living aboard for an all in cost of only £50 per week!
