Broker's Comments

I am so very pleased to be able to offer for sale another magnificent Classic Broads cruiser, a super rare Moores Belmore class 26. This boat has been owned by a fully trained boat builder for the previous 6 years before the current owner bought her last year, and it shows as she is just stunning.

She has been out of the water and shed stored every winter and tarred and antifouled every year. Her wood glows with quality and love and she has every modern convenience you could wish for. She is one of just two remaining of her class!

She has a Boat Safety Certificate to May 2026, having just been re tested. Her mooring in beautiful Horning is also available at £100 per month. Her wonderful BMC 1.5 has been tenderly loved and has recently had a full top end rebuild to include new valves, injector service etc. She also has a new lift pump, alternator and starter motor and she starts and runs incredibly well.

Her cockpit roof folds back and her screens fold forward so that she can clear all the Broads bridges with ease. She has been extensively upgraded with warm air heating, pressurised hot water system, solar panels and shore power so she is truly a comfortable place to spend time afloat. She can sleep up to 4 people in two separate cabins and either cabin can be made in to double or singles so she is super flexible.

Her previous owner of 6 years has advised that should the new owner want to have her maintained then he would be happy to do so at cost so you can buy this boat and not have anything to worry about as she can be maintained.

This boat represents incredible value and stunning style so grab yourself a bargain while you can as this head tuner will sell quickly.

Also included is “nipper nippa”, a purpose made rowing and sailing skiff made to the same high standard making this an exciting and fun package.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
