We fitted 2 x 250 litre water tanks with balance pipe.Fitted with new fire which has only been used a few times.2 front lockers with aluminium locker tops.Being a legendary quality colectaft, it has beautiful lines, swims and handles superbly. It looks tidy and presentable.A porta potty toilet and 2 x 80 watt solar panels are included, so with the addition of free standing furniture and some basic plumbing skills, it is easily feasible to be lived in. The panelling is still in place, so with a coat of paint could be made in to a home.The hull condition is unknown to us as we did not have it surveyed, but we have know the boat for 15 years before we bought it as it belonged to a very good friend of ours so we know that it was regularly blacked.Boat safety certificate valid to 16/08/202As a guide to costs , the current licence cost is £1049 per year , but can be paid monthly.
