Broker's Comments

Formally an H M Customs launch boat that saw most of her service in the Port of Harwich. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a superb example of this much sought after craft. She is of substantial build and would be suited to work as a sturdy fishing boat.

Please note: The forward cabin is more of a day cabin and not really big enough to sleep in as the longest lying length in the front cabin measures approximately 1.4m. The headroom in the forward cabin measures approximately 1.7m.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
