Broker's Comments

Boatshed Thames are delighted to offer this boat for brokerage as it is a unique opportunity to purchase a piece of marine history. A 1955 German ex Rhine police patrol boat she would make the perfect liveaboard for two plus occasional guests or an exceptional head turning pleasure craft.

When I went to photograph her I thought she was quite an attention grabber as she has recently been refinished in German police boat colours and insignia.

The aft deck is huge and you could hold a big party there! The storage under the rear deck is cavernous.

The boat is to be sold fully equipped with everything from life jackets, sun loungers, deck table and chairs, 17" flat screen TV with surround sound, Sky box and dish, brabantia bin, microwave, toaster, kettles, pots, pans, cutlery etc, ready just to sail away on!

She is sadly only for sale due to illness.
