Broker's Comments

Built around 1984 as a one-off inshore ferry, this tough little launch has seen service as a boatyard workboat and, more recently, as a sea-fishing boat. The interior is spacious and surprisingly comfortable, with a big galley (tea and sausage-sandwich factory!) and recently replaced upholstery. There's even a sea toilet hidden under a bench seat. The hull and deck need a lick of paint, and that will transform the look of the vessel when she gets it. In the meantime, here's a good-sized, honest and practical, hard working boat for not a lot of cash.
