Brokers comments
The vessel has been with the current owner for over 18 years and was originally located in Scotland prior to the current owner. The vessel is now sitting on a berth at Ipswich Beacon Marina, where the current owner is still having maintenance done on the vessel. The owner has currently set the boat up for winter and so it is being protected and kept dry.
