Broker's Comments

An exceptionally well presented Freeman 22 mk2
in her original gelcoat, both hull and topsides that have been lovingly cared for over the recent years.

Ongoing upgrades include new upholstery, curtains, compound polish, antifoul, rudder anode, canopy, engine service, 3 new seacocks, raw water pump service, fuel tank drain and clean.
She is a "dry" boat with no evidence of water ingress whatsoever, no staining to the new upholstery.
She really is presented very well and I would say one of the better examples available.

Hi Ray,
We will have to disagree on this, Very good examples of the early Freeman's are commanding very good prices (and have been doing so for a while and there are several on the market at present at over £10k,
Many "purists" would not like to see a diesel engine in these boats, the attraction, despite the availablity of petrol is the smoother and quieter running (especially important given half the engine sits directly under the saloon seating) and let's be honest a good Watermota original engine will use little more fuel at river speeds than a diesel. Good examples of the original versions are in the main the preffered option especially with the back up of the likes of Sheridan Marine parts are readily available.
Kind Regards Gary

????????????????????????it’s very nice condition BUT it’s petrol engined and very old it’s probably realistically worth probably half what you’re asking. If one of your guys can make this money for it he deserves a big bonus.
