THE HOUSEBOAT CENTRE is privileged to be able to offer this historic vessel which serviced Radio Caroline and was the FIRST British vessel to be licenced as an offshore Radio station!!
In full working order, regularly cruised single handed and being sold with an amazing amount of tools and equipment. 2 five ton fuel tanks mean you can cross the Atlantic. Maintained by current experienced skipper/ owner since October 1987, sadly ill health prompts sale.
With unique open plan family dormitory with two doubles and on single (could be divided into seperate cabins) and a fantastic radial wood laid floor pattern, with complementary radial spokes in well insulated weather cover. This is unique, It is Historic and because of the credit crunch, It is Amazingly affordable. Large store room forward could be converted to addtional accomodation. Gardner 8L3B engine drives her at 12 knots and only sips the fuel at cruising speed of 8.5 knots. Last slipped, maintained and surveyed 5 years ago. Features beautiful open plan living area with huge solid fuel fire leading to kitchen area. You do not need any licence to cruise this wonderful vessel !!
