OWNERS COMMENTS

"Catherine 1" requires some restoration, according to a December 2021 survey report her hull is sound but her forward coachroof top will need renewal with several other areas to refurbish hence her very reasonable asking price. She is berthed afloat at Shotley Marina and can be viewed by arrangement.
