The Freeman 27 first launched in 1978. This one appears to be a lovely example. The Freeman 27 was cutting edge in her time and has a much sportier look compared to the earlier boats produced by John Freeman. A very popular vessel with 300 were built by 1984. There are still many around today which is a testament to the quality of build. The Freeman 27 boasts a long shallow keel giving great directional stability. Perfect for river cruising. This vessel benefits from a new canopy cover with full window covers too. There is also an all over winter cover to protect her. She also has a boat safety certificate too.

Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract.
This Freeman 27 river and estuary cruiser is a lovely example as you will be able to see from the photographs and video. Such a classic but a modern lady for her time. These boats really stand the test of time as they were so well laid up. They are ideal for a family who would enjoy holidays on the water. This vessel has so much to offer with a fabulous cockpit to enjoy those balmy evenings in comfort. Have a look at the video coverage for yourself.
