Remarks:
The Hampton Safari is an extremely popular single level inland cruiser – and deservedly so! This very well presented example was owned by the previous family for some 20+ years on the southern Broads where she was mostly used as a day boat. Boasting the original gelcoat finish throughout (very unusual for a Hampton Safari!), she has benefitted from a number of upgrades over the past winter and is now for sale due to a change of plans (and competition time-wise from a camper van!). A really lovely example with lots of original charm, but also plenty of modern comforts. A great mini home afloat!
A part exchange for a small motor cruiser up to 20ft with outboard motor would be considered.
