Broker's Comments

Probably the best deal you will find to acquire a Trapper 500. Well built and quite fast these make excellent cruisers and are up to a bit of racing too.
This one needs an engine and some TLC to the cosmetics and she will be a super boat. She is being sailed at the moment with the assistance of an outboard on a bracket to help her on and off the berth - the bracket is included , the outboard not.
There is a yard cradle which is also available by negotiation. She will be taken on to the hard for winter storage in September.
