The hull has been blacked 3 times in the last 12 years (each time during summer months) with base plate once.The hull survey was completed 4 years ago (for insurance purposes), which can be viewed.There is NO over plating as the steel is quality and not needed any.The Bow and Stern decks have been raised.Full internal base plate treatment completed. Engine bay is ready to drop in a power unit.BSS 1 year remaining.Wood flooring material is loaded and could be added to sale if required (neg.). Work has started on a bow room with raised steel flooring (to add under floor storage), but all can be reversed if needed.Some work still being finished but can be taken immediately if buyer wishes.If some extra metal work requested, then there could be negotiation room.There is a mooring nearby that can be used to deliver/drop off engine if needed.However, not having one can be an advantage to start with, please call for more info.If buyer wants to have hull lifted out for transport, then I can arrange delivery to Watford Marina -(they have a large crane and space to load onto a flatbed lorry)..Viewings only available after conversation.
