Broker's Comments

1985 Invader V240
In need a a good deal of internal cleaning and external polishing to bring her back to her best. She is in original gelcoat with little or no damage so she will come up very well.
The engine started for me first time and runs very, very well. She is smooth in and out of gears so the mechanical side of things appears to be very good.
Internally the upholstery will need replacing and the woodwork around the dashboard area will need re varnishing.
There is a watermark 3 ins above the saloon floor where the anchor drain blocked which then filled the locker with water and entered the saloon,
However at the price of £3750 she is certainly a good buy. She has a BSC until August 2018.
The owner is unable to pay her any attention and she is therefore being sold as she is.
My research shows that £8000 is where she would be if presented in good order.
She is an ideal winter project.
The photo's show the boat exactly as she is and is priced accordingly, there is very little if any room for any further reduction.
