2001 Alphacraft 29

CONSTRUCTION: GRP

YEAR: 2001

DIMENSIONS: LOA 29′ 0″, BEAM 12′ 0″, DRAFT 2′ 5″, MINIMUM AIR DRAFT 7′

COLOUR: White

INTERIOR: 4/5 berths in 3 cabins plus galley and heads (with shower and bath)

ENGINE: Nanni 4.150 diesel with hydraulic drive

EQUIPMENT: Internal: The vessel has a small aft cockpit with steps down leading to the aft cabin where there is a single berth to port and the heads to starboard. The heads provides a fitted hand basin, shower and bath. Going forward there is a sleeping cabin to starboard with double berth and wardrobe. Opposite this and running forward is the superb galley. This has a stainless steel sink unit with pressurised hot – from calorifier – and cold, a SMEV cooker (4 burners, grill and oven), cupboards, worktops and an electric fridge. The main saloon area has the steering position to port and a dinette which converts to a double berth to starboard. This whole area has a dual sliding roof, with the option to open half or both, and a door leading though into the forward cockpit. The boat benefits from Webasto warm air cabin heating and has a television, VCR and a stereo radio/cassette system. Her upholstery is finished in blue dralon and, like the rest of the boat, is in immaculate condition. External: The boat has a small forward cockpit. Unlike her sister-ship, which is also for sale, this one has a swim-platform moulded into her transom. She has a properly fitted and drained gas box mounted under the aft deck and her gas, fuel and electrical systems have all passed Boat Safety Scheme requirements.

REMARKS: This vessel was fitted out by her owners for use in their exceptional hire fleet. She will be available for her new owner on the 31st October when she completes this year’s hire commitments. A very popular model, she is – at the time of writing (May) – fully booked though to mid-August. On handover, her owners will clean the boat throughout, remove any hire fleet insignia, scuff marks, etc. Experience of selling some of their vessels in the past has shown that the boats look virtually as new when passed to the buyers.

OUR OPINION: A really nice, comfortable and beautifully fitted-out boat. She is a good representative of this yard’s very high standards of build and maintenance.
