Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract.
Very highly regarded and sought after quality Scandinavian classic. The class was last built in 1991 and was discontinued because the boats could not be constructed at a price the market could afford because of the high quality of finish and lay-up. Royal Cruisers are a mark and very few, if any, are on the market at any one time. This vessel has been looked after and improved by all of its owners with the current owner having had 12k of work done in the last 18 months! Which he has all the receipts for. A real classic and well worth a look.
