We do not have a set buy it now, mostly based on the fact we are not 100% sure on value. Please fully read and digest the whole advert and study the photos in detail before asking questions. Covid compliant viewings are welcomed, with notice, but due to my fathers age, I will conduct any viewings and or sales. If IвЂ™m honest IвЂ™m probably being over critical but I simply do not have the time to waste with buyers coming and being disappointed, so IвЂ™ll be very honest and you know exactly what your getting. I have contacted a local recovery firm and they are able to deliver at ВЈ1 per mile each way at the buyers cost. We cannot take responsibility for the trailers road worthiness. So the boat and trailer is moveable and can be towed to the road for the buyer to load.Д«earings are actually ok to. Have put a used set of tires on the trailer as the ones on there were shot.

It may be solid enough to tow but we certainly wouldnвЂ™t confirm or advise. Trailer is untested, itвЂ™s been sat a long time and has some rusted holes in, one under the hitch, and some at the rear. Ford / Essex v6 petrol engine, still turns over with a wrench on the crank, so not seized. Set of seats were fitted, not awful condition but not original. Will have age / use related scuffs and marks. Looks solid and has no reportable structural damage. Things to note: Owned for around 25 years.Lots of history, owners manual, price list (very expensive boat in their day, hence they are very rare).Was running perfectly and was sea worthy when parked up around 2005-8. However it was periodically turned over and started up to we think around 2012. So this Dowty Turbocraft has been sat unused for at least 12 years, but more likely 15-18 years. In 2011 I personally had a pretty modern wakeboard boat and kept it moored on the water so it was easier for my father to use mine than this. As we grew up it got used less and dad reverted back to his fishing boat for the next few years. Up to around 2003 it was used maybe a handful of times a year and maintained to suit, winterised and really looked after. My father has owned this boat since (from memory) 1995/6 ish, we spent a good portion of our childhood on costal trips and spent many hours on, or behind (on toys) this boat. following the sobering realisation my father is very unlikely to ever complete the work required to recommission, and the reality he wonвЂ™t use it again. We are hopeful that serious buyers will know a lot about these. This a VERY rare vessel and is a sought after classic boat. This is a speed boat / power boat and is a historic вЂDowty TurbocraftвЂ™. Offered for sale is my fathers 1960вЂ™s jet boat. We are listing this as a project as itвЂ™s in need of some work, although not a basket case, itвЂ™s not a buy and use boat. We are having a clear out of projects and redundant items / vehicles.
