Broker's Comments

This clean and tidy boat looks half its age and comes with cuddy-cabin, Snipe trailer and 8hp motor. There is a cockpit cover for keeping rain out when the boat is not being used, plus the frame for a folding canopy if required.

Well-equipped and all ready to go, it should make an ideal fishing boat or day-tripper for up to 4 adults.
