Brokers comments: This professionally built ex charter catamaran has been lightly used and well maintained all its life. Now in private ownership at Stewart Island. Purchase her either as a pleasure boat or put her back to work with a fresh charter survey (vessel has NZMSA planning approval). Owned by a professional ship owner, this vessel is now surplus. Would make a great vessel for Stewart Island, Marlborough Sounds or Bay of Islands. An inspection will not disappoint.
