Broker's Comments

The Arvor 20 is an ideal option for any body looking for a steady, yet fast platform to enjoy time afloat. It is ideally suited for fishing and exploring rivers, estuaries and local coastlines, benefiting from a powerful inboard engine, protected wheelhouse and an interior space suitable to sleep two and prepare simple meals. The cockpit is roomy, easy to wash down and compete with a live bait well. Access to the foredeck is available through deep side decks and the boat overall is simple to handle.

This version has been in the hands of the same owner since new and has benefited from their engineering back ground and therefore regualar upkeep and maintainence. It is well equipped for its use and benefits from recent attention to engine servicing. I was impressed by the boat's straightforward set-up, handling and speed through the water. If you are looking for fun afloat and or a leisure fishing platform we recommend this boat to you and would be pleased to organise a viewing.
