Broker's Comments

Boatshed Norfolk is pleased to be able to exclusively offer, for sale, this large ex-hire Ideal 45 river cruiser. off hire and fully serviced for the new owner. With full shore power fitted to all cabins with immersion heater and battery charger all fitted. Recent survey this year with all items addressed and freshly antifouled a few months back this is a great and well equipped boat. This is one of the larger Broads cruisers offering 6 separate cabins and comfortable accommodation for 10-12 people. There are 3 toilets all electric flush, 3 showers, a very large sociable saloon and a smaller aft dinette. This boat has just had fill shore power fitted to every cabin with battery charger and got water immersion system and a recent survey (this year) with all work completed.

She boasts a modern Nanni diesel engine with shaft drive. The boat appears to be in a well presented condition and offers huge external space on the aft deck and additional forward deck. These are the last Ideal 45 boats that are now leaving the hire fleet so when these are gone there will be no more. They do not come up for sale very often and are rare on the private market. This will make great large family river cruiser or an amazing live-aboard home.

The boat has a current BSS.

I went on this boat for 2 weeks in 1994. It was absolutely beautiful. If I get a lottery win I’m buying it
