This large boat would be the perfect purchase for those looking to travel in style and comfort. Previously, a fisherman's trawler MV Bendix was purchased in 1995 and has undergone a full refurbishment throughout with all the freezers and cooling holds removed and refitted as living space. Another bonus, is that the boat is fully centrally heated using diesel and a new boiler has been installed only 2 years ago. There is also zero council tax and VAT free for moorings and maintenance. The boat comprises of two double bedrooms both with additional bunks and a huge master bedroom with built in storage, an office and plenty of additional storage space, a two piece shower room, a four piece suite bathroom, a fitted kitchen and a spacious lounge/dining area where you can enjoy relaxing after a day of sailing. To the front deck, you will find a built terraced sun deck with a BBQ area and hot tub that fits 5 people comfortably which is a fantastic space to host substantial parties. To the rear deck, you will find a further decked area with space for a tables and a bench seating area where you can sit and enjoy the sun all year round. The current owners have recently taken the boat to dry dock for water blasting, antifouling, anodes, painting and any remedial work. MV Bendix has also undergone a full out water survey and any repairs were completed meaning there is no additional work required for the new owners to undertake.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
