Broker Remarks

Kent 8 metre Motor sailer for sale. A typical example of a well maintained and well used Kent 8m.  Standing rigging was replaced in 2011 and slab reefing fitted in the same year.  The boat was designed with a shallow draught and was intended as a boat which could sail on the Norfolk Broads, but also be a genuine seagoing boat.  Good use has been made of space and she could potentially sleep five. She was antifouled in August 2016 and her anodes were replaced in January.  The vessel was last surveyed in 2010 and any issues raised have been addressed.

The boat has been in the current ownership for 6 years and is being sold for health reason.  She is currently ashore at Noss on Dart Marina, Dartmouth and available for vieiwng.
