Broker's Comments

Here is an opportunity to buy a project boat.What appears to be a solid GRP construct, requires a new engine (the current one is seized) and attention to the sails (which have not been seen but I am told have been stored for some time and have suffered as a result), . Purchased by the current owner with the intention to renovate, the ownership of another Albin Vega means his attention lies elsewhere. Currently on the hard in Suffolk, the cradle she sits on comes with the boat as do some spares which are unlisted. Please bear in mind that what is being offered is a blank canvas and not a serviceable boat but with some imagination and time and effort there appears to be no reason why she cannot have a second lease of life.

These boat details are subject to contract.
