Broker's Comments

An ex Dover pilot boat, this one offers masses of accommodation with a large aft cabin. The wheelhouse has been extended and creates a large saloon so makes a useful liveaboard. Renown as an all weather boat with a bulletproof hull and twin V 8 Diesels she would make a great dive boat too which gets you where you want to go quickly. Some updating wouldn't go amiss down below and anyone with basic skills should be able to compete this. All reflected in the keen price. Please note the mooring is not included in the sale and will need to be removed once the boat is sold.
