Searay 230 Overnighter Signature, Cuddy Cabin

Searay 230 Signature, Cuddy Cabin, in stunning condition, maintained at no expense spared On an SBS 3500 trailer, (the rolls royce of boat trailers) Regularly serviced, new brakes and bearings , with a spare wheel. 5.7 litre Mercruiser V8 new in 2007.Boat imported in 2007, New engine and leg installed.We have owned "Vortic 2" since 2010, new Bimini tops and frames in 2018 new camper canvas as well .We have also had a cover made to cover the cabin canvas !! A bit extreme, but it keeps the camper canvas clean if its left up.She has an all over tonneau cover which is the original, its had some repairs and is regularly waterproofed but if we were keeping her this would be the next item to upgrade/replace.Eberspacher central heating to the cabin and cockpit, (custom installed, not a second hand lorry unit), fed from a small separate diesel tank roasty toasty if you take the children/grandchildren out and extends the days during spring and autumn ! Twin batteries new for 2019 seasonA pair of Dock lights added in the bow, handy for the late run home.bespoke sunbathing cushions for the forward cabin roof.Substantial anchor, with chain and plenty of rope in its own forward anchor locker.Full service every year by Lee at Vantage Marine in Littlehampton and then winterized .The boat is kept in her own shed when not in use with heaters during the winter months.Any trial , with a little bit of notice.If you want a professional survey then please go ahead.The boat has been cherished by our family .This is a very reluctant sale, unfortunately i have purchased a large wooden sports cruiser from the 60/70's which needs huge amounts of cash for her restoration !! You'd think a full on grown up would know better !!

We had her listed a month or so ago, but noticed the trim tabs do not work, the trim on the engine works fine which is all we have ever used, but the trim-tabs do not, personally its of no consequence but best to mention.We did have a few "economy" questions, im afraid she is not for the cost conscious, a run to Brighton and back will leave her almost dry. A run to Cowes will need a small top up before coming back. An evening teaching someone to waterski will probably use £80 to £100.But the grin on everybody's faces is totally priceless, she will just top 40knots (4 blade deep cut prop) and lifts up on the plane very quickly, the hull is polished GRP with no antifoul. Please check you have a suitable vehicle or license, the boat is approx 2000kg and the trailer is approx 800kg, so any vehicle with a tow weight of 3500kg will be fine, apols to the chap with the tasty suv, but she will need a bit more of meaty motori could deliver her to you but we would need to discuss the distance and costs, time etc.she is listed elsewhere so may be removed from sale
