Broker's Comments

Here's another chance to own a bit of Naval History. This Fast Motor Launch No.7711 was built by Vospers and allocated to the RNR Ulster Division, HMS Caroline.

These craft were built for use as Flag Officer or Queens Harbour Master barges and she is reputedly a good sea boat.

Purchased from the MOD in 2002, she was re-engined and transformed to a high standard for family use. In more recent times she has undergone further significant improvements.

A comfortable, capable, classic, in a clean and well presented state. Currently afloat and easily accusable for viewing.
