She sails comfortably at cruising speed or faster if required.  I have copies of some Bills of Sale from the previous owners.  She is ready to sail away.    REASON FOR SELLING: I am a Marine Surveyor and travel throughout the UK and am not getting as much use out of her now. This boat just needs a good home!  GUIDE PRICE: Just over 6 years ago it was sold for £17,995. However in the present financial climate I am offering the boat as NO RESERVE and it sells for whatever it reaches on Ebay. THERE IS NO BUY IT NOW PRICE.  IT’S NOT PERFECT: She is an old boat and not perfect, and the interior is dated and reflects this; however much of the upholstery is only a couple of years old. Two new roof hatches but one leaks slightly; There is only a cold water pressurised system which we don’t use; instead we have bottled water for any drinks.  There is a slight 6mm hull deflection due to previous strengthening sometime in the vessel’s past, this was done many years ago and is not regarded as significant.  In the bilges, the GRP encapsulating the keel bolts was opened up for inspection and the GRP has not been tidied up; however it is handy to have keel nuts and washers visible.  The LPG system, stove renewed in the last few years; however we have never used it.  NOTE: This is not an exhaustive list of faults, anyone wanting to purchase should engage a marine surveyor before bidding on the vessel (I can’t survey my own boat).  NOTE: The vessel is sold as seen with no warranty given or implied. NOTE MOORING: The present marina berth is paid up until the end March, you may be able to take it over; however, you would need to check with the marina. EITHERWAY YOU MUST MAKE YOUR OWN ARRANGEMENTS FOR BERTHING BY THE END OF THIS MARCH (A MONhT'S GRACE!)NOTE LOW FEED BACK: Any bidders with a feedback of less than 10 must contact me first before bidding otherwise your bids are likely to be removed.  NOTE PAYMENT METHOD: The winning bidder MUST pay a deposit of £500 via Paypal WITHIN ONE HOUR at the end of the auction AND the balance via a Bank Transfer within 24 hours – I’ll give full bank info to winning buyer.  THANKS FOR LOOKING AND HAPPY BIDDING
