Broker's Comments

The Birchwood TS31 has a great layout; there two helm positions one on the aft deck and the other in the saloon are. The aft cabin has a large dinette seating area and the galley, leaving the main cabin with just the helm and some comfortable seating. The forward cabin has a large island double berth and plenty of storage.
This boat has been extensively upgraded in recent years, see details in our advert above, it is a great example of this popular model. The 130hp Volvo diesel engines have completed just 884 hours.
