Broker's Comments

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

A tidy little Valiant 18, recently painted and anti fouled.(May 2012) These are great day sailers but do have accomodation for overnighting with 4 single berths ( I would suggest 2 would be enough!) a cassette toilet and sink in the cabin. She has 2 sets of sails and a 4hp Mariner long shaft outboard.
With a new Boat Safety certificate valid until May 2016, a river licence until March 2013 and the possibility of a Stalham broads mooring she is an attractive starter boat.
She has an over boom winter cover, new warps and fenders, a lovelly little saiboat at a very keen price.
She also has a mast lowering mechanism for the broads bridges.
Owner is keen to sell so offers are invited.
