Additional Information:

Alchemy was built in 2019 by Aluminium Boats East Coast in King's Lyn, originally commissioned for wrasse fishing. She is sturdily built in 5/6mm plate, 20mm keel bar, but fast (22 Knots unloaded) with a shallow draft of half a metre, whilst being very stable in light to moderate seas. Due to her robust construction she is ideally suited to potting close to shore, and is very manoeuvrable with her twin Selva outboards. Both the selva outboard engines and the Beta hauler engine were installed new in 2023 and have low hours with zero issues. She can self-shoot through the back door, and has a roller as well as a davit, and a spencer carter hauler with recently installed emergency stop hydraulic valve. She has a cat catcher to remove clutter from the deck and for fuel/creel storage. All of the deck is accessible for working as the beta engine is inside the starboard hull, a big advantage.

The vessel passed its 5 year inspection in May 2024, so has over 4 years remaining. I also had a provisional workboat survey conducted that confirmed Alchemy would pass the new workboat code with some minor work, opening up possibilities for survey or tourist work.

The vessel has no issues and is ready to fish. I will include the custom made beach launching trailer that makes getting the vessel in and out of the water for routine maintenance much easier.

All safety equipment will be included in the sale including a fixed EPIRB, life rings, MOB recovery sling, flares etc. I'll also include 6 x Yamaha fuel cans, new in 2024.

I have 200+ sturdy wrasse creels, based on custom 10mm steel bar prawn creels (much better than Carapax) available for sale by separate negotiation. Backlines, and buoys also available. I also have a mackerel hand jig available.
