Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract.
Broom Boats have an excellent reputation for quality craftsmanship. This boat is ideal for families and long passage making. Ocean 42’s are very capable sea kindly boats and many have ventured across to Europe. This one benefits from a bow thruster. The air draft means that you can cruise many rivers as well. The current owner spent £10,000 on upgrades in 2021. The cockpit and interior are extremely spacious. A very robust boat with wide side decks making it easier to move around when mooring up. She would also be a fantastic liveaboard. The current owner has lived onboard for the last 2 years. The mooring would be transferable subject to meeting Marina Manager. Great views of the River and close to Rochester.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
