Broker's Comments
These boat details are subject to contract.
This classic McGruer Motor Yacht has been in the current ownership since 2001. The owner spent a lot of money on having her refurbished, and redesigned for ease of mooring. The photos show the stages of refurbishment and reconstruction. This was carried out by an excellent Shipwright - Roud Engineering of Rye in 2004. She has lots of character and would appeal to a person who has a passion for Classic boats. She would grace the River Thames! A Classy Lady.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
