Narrowboat 40ft Cruiser Stern

This is a very nice 40ft Cruiser Stern that has been recently refitted and surveyed. The owner has had the boat for 4 years but is now looking to go up a size to a widebeam. It has been out of the water for the past 12months whilst the majority of the work listed below has been undertaken thus making it easier to view and inspect.
