Very solid work boat thought to be built in the 70's and first used as a tug boat in Southampton. Later used as a fishing boat. Previous owner fitted a very low hour air cooled Lister engine which starts and runs. We have tested the transmission which goes in and out of gear. The previous owner had new fuel tanks made which were never fitted. There are a couple of small areas of welding required, see photos. The boat has been out of salt water for approx 10 years. This has the potential to be a very strong, sea worthy and economical work boat.

We are currently trying to find out more information about this boat and will update in due course.
