The boat was re-coded 20 miles for 10 persons + 2 crew in March 2025 and covers the next 5 years, excluding the liferaft (on hire ) it is offered for sale as an on going concern with all fixtures and fittings included.
A full survey was conducted for the RYA/MCA as also requested by our insurance company.

Having being in the charter business for anglers since 1977 the boat has been maintained over the years regardless of cost in an effort to provide a service for the anglers and prevent disappointment for them.

With still more than half the season left this is a golden opportunity to obtain a sound and excellent sea boat without the problems of getting a new boat coded. With the minimum of outlay liferaft hire £420 and the change of registration for the RYA. It used to be £100 one could be up and running in no time.
