Description
A unique opportunity to own a 53ft boat with a keel—rare among inland vessels and proof of its seaworthy capabilities, having previously crossed the English Channel. This boat is being sold as a project, making it ideal for a hands-on buyer looking for a rewarding restoration.
The superstructure features a plywood or similar top encased in an aluminium sleeve, which will require stripping back and repainting. Inside, the woodwork is of high quality and full of potential, ready to be brought back to life. The vessel includes a 240V shore power hookup, a small inverter, and solar panels to support off-grid living.
Please note: the boat does not currently have a Boat Safety Certificate. Buyers should treat this as a full restoration project and assume none of the systems are working and may require repair or replacement.
Accommodation includes a galley, l-shaped seating area separate bathroom with a cassette toilet and a spacious wet room. The engine is present and in running condition. Comes with a wealth of documentation and paperwork.
This boat is attractively priced to reflect its current condition and the work needed. With the right care and vision, it could be transformed into a beautiful and unique cruising vessel once again.
