Remarks:
Designed in 1971, and with over 3,000 examples built before the model was superseded by the Shetland Kestrel in c. 1982, the Shetland 570 has proved herself to be an extremely popular small motor cruiser. With her semi displacement hull, she is well suited to both coastal and inland use as a day cruiser, weekender or fishing boat. Offering two berths and a good sized cockpit, and easily handled and trailed, the Shetland 570 is a great choice for newcomers and seasoned boaters alike.
This Shetland 570 benefits from a number of recent upgrades and improvements, including new windscreen and rubbers, new cockpit canopy (designed to provide improved/easier entry) and new cabin head linings, and she is very well presented throughout. A very tidy example, and an ideal first motor boat!
