Broker's Comments

Designed by the same man who drew up the lines for the ubiquitous (and phenomenally successful) Laser racing dinghy, you won't be surprised by the look of the Trapper 300's lines: low, sleek and sharp as a dart. What I didn't expect is the amount of accommodation available in such a swift-looking boat and, in particular, the amount of headroom available. Room down below has even been found for a dedicated forward-facing chart table, which is more than most 8m cruisers can boast. Clean and tidy, inside and out, this example has the feel of a boat that has been used regularly, but looked after. The electronics could use some updating if you're of that persuasion. Otherwise, this is a speedy-looking pocket cruiser at a pocket money price.
