History

This boat was little used for several years so when this owner bought her he took no chances and had the engines given a Good going through as low hours are often a problem.. ! The engineer was given Carte-Blanche and he replaced both turbos, which were sticky. having been unused for a while, They were then both fully serviced, and checked through, including fuel system etc.. They have run totally trouble free since. The carpets were replaced, new curtains, and the wonderful new aft canopy complete. Wood work was cleaned back and sealed, there are still a few small bits and bobs, to get this boat fully "Tip Top"

the owner intends to lift ashore when possible and get a coat of wax over her as well.,

Broker's Comments Very Nice example, twin diesel flybridge in "ready for season" order, with great economical engines and low hours, nice package for her asking price.
