Broker's Comments
Boatshed Midi Canals is pleased to offer this Palma Dutch cruiser with good size teak aft deck incorporating second helm. Perfect design for the canals as wheelhouse has doors to port and starboard side decks. Presently based on the Canal du Midi and close to Beziers and Carcassonne airports.
Mooring could be transferrable after agreement with the capitainerie and costs 1320 euros per annum (no electricity or water included).
Exchange engine fitted 2012
From a cosmetic point of view, she would benefit from a re-varnish of the wooden railings and deck edging, aft deck wooden floor and a general cleaning.
Fold-down windscreen needs a broken pane replacing.
Please have a good look at our recent videos (February 2021) of an engine start and the interior as the exterior, the boat is in need of a good cleaning outside as inside too, but I was nicely surprised that the interior was not damped, or deteriorate since first listed, and the engine was starting too. so all in all a good cruiser for her value.
For more information or organise a visit, please contact Graham WHARMBY, your local broker at Boatshed Midi Canals.
