Broker's Comments

Here at Boatshed Norfolk we have a diesel powered Regal 255XL from 1991.

This is a good starter boat to river cruising that delivers the sports cruiser look and style.

She offers comfortable accommodation for up to 4 in two cabin areas and has a small galley to port with twin spirit stove, good sized fridge and ample storage.

There is a good sized wet compartment heads and shower to starboard which is clean and tidy and has some storage too.

The good sized saloon offers seating for 4 in comfort and is a pleasant place to spend time.

The sports cruiser style boat is all about the cockpit and this boat has a very nice external cockpit space that is in generally good condition with just one small cushion split and some cleaning required, but this is to be expected on a boat of this age.

The cockpit is convivial in its layout and very flexible and has good access to the engine spaces and ample storage for oddments and kit.

This boat is rare in that it has a Volvo Penta inboard diesel which starts and appears to run quite nicely with just a rev counter not reading.

This boat also appears to have diesel heating fitted and also has shore power and battery charger fitted as well as hot water.

Her Boat safety certificate runs to August 2027.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
