Channel Islands 22 for sale in Dartmouth United Kingdom

Remarks :

Channel Islands 22 motor cruiser for sale.

A nicely presented and lightly used 1989 example of this very popular coastal, river and estuary cruiser.  With her multi-purpose semi-round bilge form hull which gives a sea-kindly motion, AMOROSA’s flat aft-section serves to maximise potential speed from the twin 43.5hp Volvo diesel engines that will cruise comfortably at 9-10 knots or reach perhaps 14-15 knots under the right conditions.

Comfortably fitted out with a separate WC compartment, clever, custom-made galley, fully upholstered berths and seating, and with ample lockers and storage space, AMOROSA offers good accommodation for short trips or overnight stays.  The main deck is large enough for a sizeable fishing party (or any sort of party!) or just for leisurely days with the family. VAT understood to have been paid but not evidenced.
