Remarks:
An ideal starter package/first boat, complete with outboard and good combination road/launching trailer, both recently serviced and the latter enabling multiple cruising locations and/or reduced annual costs by either storing her at home or ashore in a boatyard that offers a launching service (as the current owner has done – she can easily be afloat and ready to motor in less than 15 minutes!). With her large cockpit, and good weather protection afforded by the hard top and cuddy cabin, she also lends herself well to use as a fishing boat. Offering lots of potential, this Pilot 490 could be easily improved in terms of overnight use and comfort. For sale after a happy two and half years as the vendor has bought a larger traditional Broads motor cruiser.
