Broker's Comments

A rather rare Broom Viper built by jack Broom.
The Viper was a very rare model with only a handful built, it was the last of the small sport boats built.
She is presented in original gelcoat and original upholstery and really is noticed wherever she is used.
She has a futuristic sporty design featuring a swept radar style wing and side steps moulded in to the side decks.
She has a period Mercury 50 outboard engine, a BSC until 2024 and a braked SBS road trailer.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
