Specifications:

A well presented Fairline Mirage 29 with the desirable Aft Cabin.
Very well appointed with 7 berths- 3 in Aft cabin, 2 on drop down table and 2 in Bow section.
A shower and toilet are on board with stainless holding tanks.
Current owner for 19 years.
Maintained to a very high standard but due to circumstances I am now having to sell.
The interior was retrimmed a couple of years ago and the canopy in excellent condition.
This boat has the fold down windows allowing passage under low bridges such as Osney Bridge in Oxford.
This is a very reluctant sale of my pride and joy.
The boat has a new BSS and is fitted with a Perkins 4108 with shaft drive. All in good working order.
Also fitted with Bathing platform and ladders plus Davits.
2 stainless fuel tanks are also fitted..
Will now require antifouling etc and the price has been set to reflect this.

*Sea Chimes*

A popular 2002 river cruiser. This is one of the few boats of this size which can navigate Osney bridge because the screen and hood fold down.
