Broker's Comments

Renowned for spaciousness and comfort, this Princess 30DS has a tidy interior and is equipped with a bow thruster.

Her spray hood is serviceable but needs some repairs.

At considerable expense, her owner had the out drives replaced and refurbished in 2018 after she was purchased.

She's been scarcely used for the past year and is reluctantly being sold due to ill health.

This boat could return to her origins as a river boat, stay on the coast for holidays or could make a practical live aboard, given a suitable location.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
