Broker's Comments

Originally commissioned as a seine netter working out of Redricks Haven in Denmark and fishing the Baltic and as far as Greenland in search of a catch.
De commissioned from fishing in 1999 she was brought to Southampton and refitted as a leisure vessel. A rare chance to acquire not only a classic Danish wooden ketch but also a home or / and business. She is MCA coded and ready to use. Massively built and very attractive the world becomes your oyster with this. A lifestyle limited only by your imagination.
