Barky Pocorum would make an ideal liveaboard. A spacious interior with an elegance and history rarely found, this is an opportunity to have a boat that is both practical and unique. At a very competitive price for this length and volume, it is an opportunity you should seriously consider.
This is your chance to buy a bit of history, with some work required on the exterior to restore the historic aesthetic of this vessel, the interior appears in reasonable condition with a closer inspection advised to see the potential this boat has to offer. Reluctant sale due to ill health.
