Broker's Comments
I've always liked Chris Butler's offerings and the 840 is no exception. Rugged construction, high quality mouldings, sensible but not OTT fit outs below; what's not to like? Our example here is a tad tired but a few week-ends work and she could be ready for the water. On the plus side she has recent sails and rigging, the engine looks tidy and well maintained and the hull is fair though would benefit from a polish. She is only for sale at this low but realistic asking price due to her owner's ill health.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Close Offers on the asking price may be considered.
