Broker's Comments

The Storebro Biscay 31 is a Swedish built Motor Cruiser. They layout includes an aft cockpit with entrance doors into a wheelhouse where there is the helm and seating that converts to 2 bunks. Forward of this you step down into the main cabin which has a good sized galley, a saloon table and seating that converts to a double berth; and then another double berth forward. They are quite similar to the Nimbus range of boats in both build quality and construction as the Storebro brand was owned by Nimbus for some years.
