Broker's Comments

Here we have a twin diesel powered Sunseeker 28 Offshore cruiser. The boat has been regularly used and appears to be in fair order for her year and does represent a good opportunity to go boating in sports cruiser style.

This is a lot of boat for the price and appears to be in generally good order and reasonably well equipped with windlass, bow thruster, twin Volvo Penta diesel engines, solar panel, shore power, battery charger, hot water calorifier and warm air heating.

Her upholstery is all in good order as is her interior and woodwork. She is in original gelcoat and has a good canopy.

Her engines started and ran as they should however, the starboard engine has been reported by the vendor as over heating after 15 mins of running. This could have several causes but as a guide could be down to an impeller or water pump issue, the heat exchanger needing to be cleaned out, or a water pipe blockage in the cooling water system or pick up. As with any boat it is always recommended that you seek professional advice on engines and condition. The vendor confirms the affected engine has good oil pressure and runs just fine with this issue so this should be a relatively easy fix.

She has her Broads toll paid for this season and Boat Safety Certificate with a couple of years remaining validity. Her mooring is paid to October and could possibly come with the boat by agreement with the marina owner. The owner was out for a few days last week on her.

She does need a little TLC however she does represent great value and would be an excellent first sports cruiser style boat.
