Boat Renovation People brokerage is excited to bring to the market this stunning example of a Trusty 21 Motorboat.
It boasts a traditional round bilged displacement hull, coupled with a deep keel makes it ideal for both sea and river use.
They are particularly renowned for their seaworthy shape. Which lends itself to use as a fishing boat. Its triple keel makes beaching and taking the hard safer. They also make perfect weekend cruisers, providing both comfort and safety for family trips.
A cosy modern interior that consists of cream leather and liner through the V-berth and cabins offers warmth in the winter and insulation for the summer months. The trusty 21 handles perfectly in tight marinas, its inboard diesel is not overpowered and idles very low, making manoeuvring a lot easier. The trouble-free Morse controls are easy to use, and the steering is perfect.
A casette toilet sits under the V-berth locker, which can easily be removed for emptying. The galley has two sets of cupboards for storing, pans pots and cleaning products with a stainless steel sink on top and a wipeable kitchen worktop. The water pump for the sink is on an automatic switch witch activates with the tap.
Engine Specification
Merlin is powered by recently reconditioned Yanmar inboard diesel, these are very economical engines that lend themself to the shape of the hull. The sizeable access to the engine is ideal making basic servicing a pre- journey checks a breeze.
