Broker's Comments
Due to a very sudden bereavement this amazing magnificent Classic broads cruiser, a super rare Moores Belmore class 26, is now back on the market.
This boat has been (previous to the unfortunate current owner) owned by a fully trained boat builder for the last 6 years and it shows as she is just stunning. He has had her out of the water and shed stored every winter and Tarred and antifouled every year. Her wood glows with quality and love and she has every modern convenience you could wish for. She is one of just two remaining of her class!
She has a Boat Safety Certificate to 2022 but the owner will have a fresh 4 year BSC placed on the boat for the new owner. Her mooring in beautiful Horning is also available at £100 per month. Her wonderful BMC 1.5 has been tenderly loved and has recently had a full top end rebuild to include new valves, injector service etc. She also has a new lift pump, alternator and starter motor and she starts and runs incredibly well.
Her cockpit roof folds back and her screens fold forward so that she can clear all the broads bridges with ease. She has been extensively upgraded with warm air heating, pressurised hot water system, solar panels and shore power so she is truly a comfortable place to spend time afloat. She can sleep up to 4 people in two separate cabins and either cabin can be made in to double or singles so she is super flexible.
The owner of the last 6 years has advised that should the new owner want to have her maintained then he would be happy to do so at cost so you can buy this boat and not have anything to worry about as she can be maintained for you by her highly qualified previous owner.
This boat represents incredible value and stunning style so grab yourself a bargain while you can as this head tuner will sell quickly. Also available by separate negotiation with a matching wooden dinghy in identical condition.
