Remarks:
The Birchwood 22 is a fantastic starter boat, with open plan accommodation for four and a good sized cockpit. This example is sadly acknowledged to require interior tidying/refitting due to a period of unattended water ingress (through deck and since repaired) during lockdown. Further interior photos are available upon request. Currently lying ashore and will be sold as seen (barring the removal of the vendor’s personal possessions).
