By “popular” demand!
Subject to sea trial and hull inspection on Tuesday, this is what I am likely to buy (although I’m also weighing up a 1998 Cranchi Smeraldo 37). It’s a 34’ Gobbi 335 SC, but with a swim platform added (effectively making it a 345SC).
It was a freshwater boat its whole life until June this year when it was thoroughly overhauled - engines, drives, anti-fouling, new helm electronics, new cockpit and deck cushions, salon and cabin refit - and then brought down the Algarve. It’s in very nice condition other than a couple of scratches on the blue stripe which is a vinyl wrap, so an easy fix. The twin Volvo Penta Diesel engines show less than 500 hours of run time in 21 years, and run incredibly sweetly at idle. They are good for 460hp. It will cruise at 25mph and top out at around 35mph.
We will see how it goes on Tuesday….
