This is a solid, large volume & well equipped launch of the ever popular Pelin Challenger design. After years of fishing, our vendors have used this more recently as their floating holiday apartment which they no longer require.

Great for fishing, diving & cruising, or the big volume could also make a good liveaboard option.

Ideal for someone to tidy to add value, or enjoy as is.

The Mana berth may be avail to rent.
