Broker's Comments

A really nice and extremely well equipped Starfish 8 fishing boat.

On inspection she appears to be in very good condition and there is lots of evidence to suggest she has been well cared for and maintained.

Out on deck there is plenty of space for 6/7 people to fish and she feels a safe place to be thanks to her solid build quality.

In the wheel house she is equipped with a complete Raymarine electronics package which includes 2 x hybrid touch GPS/Fishfinders, Radar, VHFDSC and AIS. All of these devices are connected and so can relate information to each other.

The interior consists of a small seating area that could convert to two single berths, there is also a small table. Within the wheel house there is a lower level leading to a small galley area, extra storage and a small forward cabin which has been converted purely for storage. The cabin could be reinstated as a small forward cabin with a v berth, or indeed for a small head.

On top of the wheelhouse there is a radar unit, radar reflector, life raft (in date) and 2 remote search lights (which are controlled within the wheel house).

The engine has recently been serviced and paperwork is available at the time of viewing.

If you are looking for a solid traditional style fishing boat with plenty of room for up to 6/7 people to go fishing, I would recommend taking a look at this particular boat.
