Broker's Comments

Here we have a very nice little river cruiser made by the Eastwood company so she is very well built and made from quality materials. She has not been attended for about 18 months so is in need of a very good clean on the outside and currently looks quite sorry for herself. however this should all clean up and reveal the swan beneath the dirt build up. She has been owned by her current owners for close on 9 years and has been a joy to them . However in recent years poor health has meant they could not get to her or attend her and so she is in need of a very good scrub up. The good boat is under the grime and can clearly be seen and she is very well equipped for broads cruising. She has a fully refurbished diesel engine with the work done by a local yard a couple of years back and this shows when you look at the engine. She has warm air heating, and anchor windlass, very good upholstery and a pleasing and useful layout for a small cruiser plus a good sized heads and full shower. Being an Eastwood she was a quality build as this yard is well respected for building higher end boats. That shows in the wonderful wood inside. The one area that could do with attention is the galley window has leaks and the wood trim is damaged inside so ideally the window needs to come out and be resealed and the wood piece replaced. This is the only real issue that I could see on my photographic journey through the boat when listing her.
She is a quality comfortable boat that can sleep 4 and has tidy galley facilities. as you would expect after being left the canopy also needs aa good scrub inside and out but appears to be in generally good order with just a single zip possibly needing to be replaced.
If you are looking for a a cheap quality little family diesel boat this boat will not disappoint after a clean up. She also clears all broads bridges so the whole network is open to be cruised
SHE IS PRICED BELOW MARKET VALUE TO RELECT THE CLEANING AND ISSUE DETAILED
She has a place at a dry store yard so is lifted in and out as required and has a Boat safety certificate which expires shortly but the owners will place a fresh Certificate on her in the coming weeks
