Colvic 22ft Fishing Motor Boat.yanmar Engine,solid Boat + Trailer.winter Project

COLVIC TRAVELLER SOUGHT AFTER FISHING / CRUISER BOAT. 22FT LONG, YANMAR DIESEL ENGINE, FORWARD 2 BIRTH CABIN. THIS IS AN EASY PROJECT. IT WAS IN USE UNTIL APRIL THIS YEAR WHEN IT WAS TAKEN OUT TO START FRESHING IT UP FOR SUMMER. WORK STARTED ON THE BOAT AND THE WHEEL HOUSE WAS REMOVED AS THERE WAS SOME ROTTEN WOOD.

POLISHED THE HULL THAT IS IN REMARKABLE CONDITION AND THE BRASS PORTHOLES, ALSO RENEWED THE ANTI FOULING AND ADDED A RED PINSTRIPE. IT WAS STARTING TO TAKE SHAPE NICELY. HOWEVER WORK AND LIFE IN GENERAL TOOK OVER AND THIS HAS NOT BEEN TOUCHED FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW. ITS A VERY EASY PROJECT THAT IS AT A STAGE YOU CAN PUT YOUR OWN MARK ON, DESIGN IT FOR YOUR USE. LIKE I SAY THIS WAS IN USE UNTIL 6 MONTHS AGO, ENGINE IS STRONG AND ALSO VALUABLE.

ITS A YANMAR, THE ONLY THING IT WANTS OTHER THAN A SERVICE IS AN ALTERNATOR. ALL TELEFLEX STEERING IS FITTED AND WORKING. AS AN IDEA OF WHAT SHE NEEDS, HERES A SMALL LIST: WHEEL HOUSE TO REBUILD.ENGINE TO SERVICE AND ALTERNATOR FITTED ALONG WITH SOME ELECTRICAL WIRING REPLACED.PAINT TOP DECKS.REFIT THE RUBBER STRAKING AROUND THE SIDES, THAT I HAVE KEPT AS ITS EXPENSIVE. I DID HAVE THE INTENTION OF REPLACING ITWITH TEAKWOOD STRAKING WITH FENDERS. MY USE WAS MORE FOR FUN, BUT ITS A VERY CAPABLE FULL TIME SEA FISHING BOAT.

THESE ARE A VERY WELL RESPECTED BOATS, KNOWN TO BE WELL BUILT AND ROBUST OCEAN GOING VESSELS. I WOULD SET ASIDE 2 TO 3 WEEKS MAX TO HAVE THIS BOAT READY. ITS NOT A BIG PROJECT. THE HULL IS ORIGINAL GELCOAT AND WAS POLISHED A FEW MONTHS AGO. HAS A NICE SHINE AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.

FIRST TO SEE IT WILL BUY. PAID £6500 FOR THIS 3 YEARS AGO, AND THAT WAS WITHOUT TRAILER THAT I PAID £750 FOR IN APRIL. SELLING AS A PROJECT, WITH TRAILER. RELUCTANT SALE, BUT TIME IS SCARCE NOWADAYS. MAY PX WITH CAR, VAN, BOAT OR MOTORBIKE.

WITHIN classifieds board RULES. VIEWING IN ROMFORD, ESSEX. ITS OUT OF THE WATER AND ON THE TRAILER, SO MAKES INSPECTION EASY AND ALSO TRANSPORT IS SIMPLE. YOU WOULD WANT A VAN OR DECENT 4X4 TO PULL THIS ALONG. TRAILER TOWS GREAT, PULLED IT FROM CORNWALL TO ESSEX WITHOUT A PROBLEM.

TOWED WELL AT 60MPH ALL THE WAY. IT WANTS A LICK OF PAINT, BUT ITS SOLID AS A ROCK! I CONSIDERED IT A BARGAIN AT 750, EASILY GET £1500 FOR IT WHEN PAINTED AND A LITTLE WORK. BARAGIN START PRICE, I WILL ADD A BUY NOW OF £3500 IF REQUIRED. THE TRAILER IS WORTH 750, ENGINE WORTH 1500 AS IT SITS NOW.

LEAVING THE BOAT 1250. ALL MODEST AND REALISTIC MINIMUM PRICES. CALL 0phone MORE PICTURES SHOWING THE CONDITION AS IT STANDS NOW. THE FIRST PICTURES SHOW IT BEING TOWED FROM CORNWALL IN APRIL. LAST PICTURES SHOW IT AS IT IS NOW.
