BSC Until 2023
Broker's Comments
Foster 30 having had a full professional re paint in March 2021.
She has a BSC until 15.04.2023.
Internally she has 3 double berths one of which is amidships with a link door to the heads and shower.
She is powered by a BMC 2.5 diesel engine through a hydraulic drive.
Whilst externally she looks stunning the interior whilst perfectly useable could benefit from an update in my opinion hence the realistic asking price.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
