Yes, I do know about this boat, as it was the last boat a friend of mine built, it's tiny little but very well layed out, and it even trailerable as it has a waterballasted keel that will fill up after launch, and empties when the boat is pulled out. It's very easy to take the wheelhouse down for very low bridges, or if you fancy the sunshine straight on you. Peter.

It's nice the way he has done the inside with reclaimed wood. Really suits the boat in my opinion.
I'm intrigued by the "Petter A4" engine. It looks to be quite a nice unit but I can't find it on any engine lists.
Seems similar to the Lister Freedom FR4.

I'm surprised you can't find anything about the engine 36-38hp I believe, but not one of petters better engines.

One of my favourites I reckon. High on my (dream) list of favourits too, in reality for many different reasons any of these much loved favorits will never be mine, but I still very much like to look at them. Peter.

That's interesting kris. I was searching for details about a Petter A4 which is what is written in the advert I guess its an error.

I feel that the stern cabin needs taking off and replacing with a wheel house.
I know its the right style but I find it does not sit well with the later cabin additions.
It just looks a bit awkward.

As for money if someone wanted to throw some at it I reckon it would be an excellent base for a series Hybrid electric install using a 10kw pod drive built into the rudder and cover the cabin top with solar.
Being such a lovely shape I bet it won't take much to move it around.
