Originally built as a charter fishing vessel, subsequently used for diving charter her functionality as a working vessel is well and truly proven. Her power units are original but are reportedly fully operational being regularly serviced and maintained as a commercial undertaking. The robustness of construction is evidenced by features such as the double heavy section 'D' fendering which is doubled at gunwale height together with typical Lochin construction characteristics. The larger flush deck area is ideally suited to a working environment and the fly-deck provides an excellent vantage point in confined areas. This vessel has updated Raymarine electronics (2018), new propellers in 2020 and is Part 1 British registered. A rare and desirable vessel at a more than sensible price.
