Broker's Comments

I am very pleased to be able to offer this truly stunning Quicksilver 540 river cruiser. She is presented in immaculate condition and you really would think she was just a year or two old to look at her!

She bennefits greatly from being in near original condition and unaltered by either of her two former owners. She has never been slept in by her current owners of 14 years as she has been a loved and cherrished day river cruiser only.
Her current owners of the last 14 years have spared no expense looking after this beautiful little cruiser and have regularly had her lifted, cleaned and polished as well as mechanically looked after and cared for professionally. This is highly evident and all documented.
She has unused matching cabin infill cusions to convert the forward babin to a large double.
She also benefits from the rear bench extension and cusions to make a larger aft seating area / sunpad which create a wonderful relaxing area on warn summer days. Storage under the floor and cockpit sole offer great versitility.

She has recently been fitted witht a new Mariner F20 four stroke fuel injected outboard with the added convenience of Electric Start with power trim and tilt. This wonderful new engine his has just 60 gentle ours on it since it was fitted. The engine starts on the key and is amazingly quiet / frugal and easy to operate. This new outboard also brings the benefit of a fully transferable 5 Year warranty to give her new owner full peace of mind.
This really is the ideal boat for easy to operate, safe, comfortable and stylish days out on the river with firends, whilst still offering comfortable overnight capabilities should you wish.
She has a nice Jeckells canopy which makes her an all weather fun and safe boat for the river.

Her BSS runs to Feb 2024
and she has a full and documented service and owner history.
New fuel and speed gauges were also fitted in 2020 with the engine and a new battery was fitted in 2017.
She comes with all her cushions, light poles, cockpit canopy, additional spray hood and also a cooler box to keep the drinks chilled while out!
This boat has to be seen and will not dissapoint, and offers a great first boat package that is fully turn-key and ready to go!
