Broker's Comments
These boat details are subject to contract.
This twin screwed gentlemans yacht was described by the surveyor as 'coming from a stable of an early proven design range and is considered to be a well built seaworthy yacht of its time. He said that her basic structure was good & she had retained her overall sturdiness. He also noted that the colossal refurbishment that was taking place could not be faulted. He also praised the engine caliber & installation, the program is on going. A potential purchaser can take over and put their own stamp on this fabulous vessel or the current owners will complete it and the cost of the vessel will reflect either scenario.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
