Broker's Comments

Kent 27 Motor sailor that has been used as a motor cruiser by her current owner over the past 4 years. As a result her mast and rigging etc has been removed along with the sails which are all included if required. This actually makes sense to me when you compare the price of a 27ft river cruiser which can offer both space and versatility.

She is presented in original gelcoat which is in very good order and she is powered by a Perkins 4107 diesel engine driving a 3 blade prop.

The interior is also in good order as are the head linings and flooring along i the woodwork.

She offers 4 berths in 2 separate cabins.

An ideal river cruiser.

She is a "long keel" design which gives a low draft of only 3ft 8 ins
