Broker's Comments
One of the last Freeman's to be built she is in her original condition although has had a new stainless steel fuel tank and stainless steel exhaust.
The gelcoat is original and there is no damage to either this or the rubbing strakes.
Internally she is very dry and both the carpets and upholstery are in good condition. There is pressurised water (cold only) to the galley and heads basin.
The cockpit area is in need of varnishing to the wood work and a good clean but otherwise in good order.
To summarise she is a good honest boat that has seen very little use of late due to illness.
The current owners have owned her for 14 years and have found themselves using her less and less hence her needing a little TLC in the cockpit area.
Priced sensibly for one of the last built examples of these very popular river cruisers.
These boat details are subject to contract.
