Remarks:
Not dissimilar to the Broom Robb, this Silver Spray Class traditional Broads motor cruiser has had only one private owner since leaving the original builder’s hire fleet in 1984. She has clearly been looked after and maintained with enormous love and care by the vendor for nearly 40 years and she is as a consequence beautifully presented throughout. Offering spacious accommodation for two/three, and with a good sized cockpit for entertaining guests, this traditional Broads motor cruiser offers lots of character and charm – including some lovely cabinetry – and with all soft furnishings and canopy in very good condition. Understood to be in good structural condition throughout, this is a really beautiful traditional Broads motor cruiser. For sale as the vendor has not one, but five other boats!
