SOLD! SOLD! SOLD!

For sale with trailer £10,500

This has been our first boat; we’ve had it for three years and loved every minute of it. She is currently moored in the river Itchen at Southampton.
Prior to our ownership it was used on the Cambridge waterways and then stored out of the water for eight years on her new trailer.
We have used this on the canals and also in the sea regularly getting us out around the Isle of Wight on good weather days. We have three teenagers and a dog who all love to come along.
This has been a very economical boating experience and a great introduction to boating; sadly the time has now come to part with her as we are moving on to a bigger boat.
