Broker's Comments

This stunning and practical Moores 26 centre cockpit cruiser in one of only a handful remaining. She is very well presented and extremely well maintained by her owner of the last 20 years who has genuinely spared no expense in keeping her in very good order. She benefits from a nani diesel motor fitted when the current owner bought the boat Her wood glows with quality and love and she has just had the side planks replaced and her decks replaced by a respected local wooden boat yard in 2024 and then repainted the hull so she it very smart and in great order. She was last antifouled in the winter of 2024, She is one of just two remaining of her class that I am aware of out of about 7 built. This particular boat was apparently the private boat of Mr Moore himself.

She has a Boat Safety Certificate to May 2026 but the current owner will be getting that full Boat Safety Certificate renewed for the next 4 years. She was last serviced this time last year and again the current owner will be having her serviced in the coming weeks so she will de done for the new owner.
Her cockpit roof folds back and her screens fold forward so that she can clear all the broads bridges with ease. She has been extensively upgraded with warm air heating, pressurised hot water system, plus a solar panel for when left so she is truly a comfortable place to spend time afloat. She can sleep up to 4 people in two separate cabins and either cabin can be made in to double or singles so she is super flexible.
This boat represents incredible value and stunning style so grab yourself a bargain while you can as this rare and quintessential classic broads cruiser is a real head tuner and will sell quickly at what is a very realistic asking price.
Her broads toll is paid for 2026 and she does have a full all over fitted cover and her central broads mooring should be available to the new owner by agreement with the marina.
