I have owned FineWind since April 2008, living aboard her until 2012.  She’s a beautiful boat, full of history and character, and extremely comfortable as a live aboard, and a broads cruiser.  She is in need of some cosmetic tlc as the varnish work is starting to look tired, and the wood burner needs replacing, as a leak in the chimney fitting has caused it to rust.  However, everything else is in full working order, so if you’re looking for a boat that you can live on/use straight away but also with the potential for improvement then Fine Wind would be a great investment!  Also of note her current mooring, just outside Norwich centre, 8 mins on the train, is available to the new owners. I will be on the boat on Saturday 10th September, so if you’d like to view her before bidding please get in touch.
