Posted this a few days ago, but cannot edit it in anyway.. So Posting again.For sale, My late brothers boat, which he happily lived aboard for the last 3 years. Video of it sailing available if interested. “Yellow”, X Watercraft shell former lifeboat. 8.2m lengh 2.7m BeamFully converted to a live aboard boat by Clearwater Boats, and completed in October 2020. They have cut out the back to make it more of “Boat” than sealed unit. Currently doesn’t need a BSS licence as less than 5 years old (Conformed with Canal trust yesterday). Powertrain: Listed HRW2 30 HP diesel engine and BorgWarner Marine gearbox.500W inverter with single plug12v Refigerator unitLPG fulled hob (fitted)5KG blow air heaterInflatable water tankPressured fresh water delivery systemLPG instant hot water system4 solar panels on the roof.Separate leisure battery. Queen size bed to the front of the boat, toilet and shower cubical, living space with worktops, sink and a foldaway desk, decent size windows that allow in a fantastic amount of light.Enclosed engine, with storage space to the side. We’re unable to keep this, which is a shame as it’s a lovely boat. It’s 250 miles away from me so i can’t just nip down, currently moored in Essex. Viewing purely by appointment. I will be going down soon to get more pictures, I’m still in the process of clearing it out. Negatives: Floor inside needs painting, needs a good exterior clean, needs a few licks of yellow paint on the outside where it’s had some small repairs. May want a new mattress for the bed, which has been custom cut to size. (I planned to leave it in, but can get rid if needed). We’ve had it privately valued at “Around £18,000”, which to me seems low compared to what he paid for it, but I know a lot is lost in the conversion. Either way he spent 3 happy years on it, went on holiday and now it needs someone new to love and cherish it. Mark 🙁
Current Price: £18000.00
