Remarks:
With her recently reinstated lifting cabin roof, this Reedling Class river cruiser offers very comfortable cruising accommodation for two. She has clearly been well looked after by both her current and previous owners, and benefits from a high level of on-going maintenance following her extensive renovation in 2001, together with many recent equipment upgrades and improvements. This is a very pretty little Broads yacht, and an ideal boat for either a first time RCC owner or for someone downsizing from a larger river cruiser.
MOORING: This yacht’s mooring, in a very desirable northern Broads yard, may be available to the purchaser subject to obtaining agreement from the yard owner. The mooring currently costs £480 every six months (March and September) including winter storage ashore.
