The current owners have made some useful upgrades to the boat such as the Raymarine remote keyboard, enabling chart plotting to be carried out in the saloon utilising the TV screen. courtesy lighting, to the rear access steps, across the rear and inside of the helm, plus low level lighting to the saloon area using pelmet and floor level lighting. The owners cabin has benefitted from having special bed head reading lights fitted and the two space heaters for front and rear heating plus the water immersion heater can be controlled from the rear cabin bed side. For comfort the space heating system has been extended to provide an outlet in the rear heads, which can also be switched on from the rear bed head. Inside both the saloon and dining area have been re upholstered in a very attractive cream leatherette fabric. In addition some very useful extra storage space has been created in the rear cabin. Additional 13 amp sockets have been fitted, supplied from the shore power ring main to enable power to be easily accessible throughout the boat.

When acquired by the current owners the boat was fitted with a Cooney Dinghy Davit system. This was carefully removed and the boat was reconfigured for continental cruising with fender baskets for 9 fenders plus life raft and an extendable ladder to the bow rails. The ladder enables access over the bow when mooring bow to, a very frequent situation in continental moorings. Refitting the Cooney system would be very easy and it and all the fittings, motor etc are included in this sale.
