Remarks:
Previously been used as a hire day boat on Lake Windermere in the Lake District from new, this well looked after traditional timber day boat benefits from an environmentally friendly and quiet electric inboard motor installed only 4/5 years ago complete with new batteries (plus new charger 2022). For sale to make way for a larger vessel (currently being built). 2022/23 Broads river toll paid. Offers will be considered, as would a part exchange for another motor cruiser/launch or a rowing boat.
Note 1: No trailer is available or included in the sale.
Note 2: The photos show both the boat offered for sale and a sister launch which has since been sold. The last 4 photos show the boat offered for sale in August 2022 with her newly painted coachroof and decks, and newly fitted aft cover and seat cushions.
