Shetland Open Motor Boat/skiff/fishing Boat And Trailer Project

Here is an open boat complete with galvanised unbraked road trailer. It started life as a Shetland 535 motor boat and someone has cut the deck off to make a roomy open boat ideal for fishing or other uses. It is for a short shaft outboard but you will see it comes with a stainless steel adapter bracket that can be bolted to the transom of the boat to use a smallish long shaft outboard. The trailer looks quite sound, and has a winch and jockey wheel. It does need some work; it does not have steering, and to be honest it would benefit from a couple of thwarts bonded in to make it a bit stiffer.

The trailer bearings are unchecked so you would need to make sure these are ok before you tow it away; `the winch seems to work but the jockey wheel needs freeing off. Please bear in mind this is a project and it is sold as such, it is a no reserve auction, the trailer alone is worth the start price. You are welcome to view the boat before bidding and please feel free to ask any questions so you are certain you are fully aware of what you are buying and if it is suitable for your needs. Could I respectfully ask that if you bid that you ensure you are in a position to pay for and remove the boat within a week of auction end. Cash on collection only on this item, thanks for looking
