Broker's Comments

This Fairline Vixen would make an ideal starter boat, with comfortable accommodation for two for to get away from it all at weekends.
She benefits from a recent new canopy, engine service, new upholstery inside and out. She also comes with a tonneau cover as well as the main canopy. The engine is the trusty Volvo Penta AQ130 petrol, which starts readily and runs smoothly.
The interior trim has been nicely updated, and she is a clean and tidy and the new upholstery throughout is a very nice touch that really gives her comfortable feel.

All of the windows have been removed, refurbished and resealed in the last few years by a reputable boatyard, and the owner has receipts totalling many thousands of pounds of work and improvement and car taken over her ownership.
This boat represents an ideal opportunity to spend some summer weekends on the river for an affordable price. She is an ideal first boat for weekends away and enjoying the slower side of life. She also benefits from having shore power fitted

Her mooring may be available to the new owner and her broads toll is paid and she has a valid boat safety certificate to September 2029

Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
