Broker's Comments

Seawards are renowned for their build and seaworthiness. This is a particularly fine example, much cherished by the last two owners.

The last survey was September 2023 when it was antifouled and anodes changed. The current owners added a Raymarine Axiom chartplotter networked to Raymarine 73 VHF, with passive AIS.

10 micron Racor primary fuel filters were fitted at the recent engine service when the Yanmar oil and fuel filters and coolant were changed.

Internally the boat is clean with excellent woodwork and upholstery.

Externally the canvaswork looks first class and the hull looks unmarked.

This is a lovely boat raring to go with its next owner.

The engine video was taken in June 2023.

Why are you selling her?

One of the crew is happier helming a RIB than a hard boat, so we are changing back to a RIB
