She has been meticuloulsy maintained and is a real performer quite happy to take up to 14 persons out in open water at cruise speeds of around 28 knots. She handles the rough beautifully and has been used daily to take passengers out to the barrier reef up to 50 miles from the coast in full safety. In current 2C survey and is a genuine business ready to go. Two things need to be looked into before the vessel is put back on the water:

The main engine gearbox had a failure on our last outing. This can be found quite easily second hand for around $1500, and a small hairline crack was found on the hull when we took it out of the water. This is a common wear and tear occurence on aluminium boats and will require a weld. This can be organised at the shipyard just down the road from the boat's current location at a very reasonable cost. Owner is in financial harship and must sell quickly and so will consider offers.
