Remarks:
THIS BOAT IS ACKNOWLEDGED TO BE UNSOUND AT PRESENT AND IS UNDERSTOOD TO REQUIRE A MINIMUM OF 9+ NEW PLANKS. SHE IS THEREFORE BEING OFFERED AS A PROJECT REQUIRING RENOVATION AND ANY PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER WILL NEED TO MAKE THEIR OWN FULL ASSESSMENT OF THE BOAT IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY ANY OTHER WORKS THAT MIGHT ALSO BE REQUIRED.
This pretty little river cruiser class yacht would ideally suit a DIY boat builder who has the required skills and time to complete her restoration themselves. Sadly a professional repair is unlikely to prove financially viable.
A quick sale is desired and offers are invited.
