“Wanderlust” is a boater’s boat. Beautifully constructed and designed to cope with exposed and choppy estuary conditions, she’s just as at home on a channel crossing as she is pootling around the canals of the Grand Union and Central London.
Propulsion comes from a large and throaty sounding Ford diesel engine, recently served with new oil and air filters fitted. These are extremely reliable and easy to maintain and she starts on the key. She’s simple to drive, ideal for a first boat.
The canvasses are in lovely condition and you can fold them down in the summer to enjoy the open rear deck. Even with them up, the wheelhouse is flooded with light from the massive windows.
The quality of fit-out in the main cabin is exceptional and there’s even a shower room with basin and cassette toilet.
Blacking and x4 2.4kg magnesium anodes completed July 2023.
Boat survey competed July 2023, the hull is in excellent condition.
