Wooden Putt Putt Boat 5.5m With Mooring And Storm Covers And Ramp Dolly.

This boat is named ALPHA and is located in the Brisbane Waters area at St Huberts Island. Alpha was built in Port Adelaide in 1946 ( thought by Searles ) It was used professionally as a net boat out of Edinburgh for most of its working life. It has a Jarrah keel and planks below the water line. Oregon planks above the water line. Carvel construction spline glued.

The Deck and floor boards are laid New Guinea Rosewood over marine ply. The boat has been professionally restored. The planks have been spline glued. There is no fibreglass. The motor is a Nanni N2, two cylinder, 10 hp.

Installed new in 2012. With a new stainless steel shaft and seals, bronze propeller. The boat was renovated over a three year period and relaunched in June 2012 and used in Goolwa as a pleasure/ recreational launch since. I purchased and brought this lovely boat to NSW in December 2014/January 2015, Because of a knee and hip injury I cant use the boat as much as it should be used and enjoyed so I have decided to sell and let somebody else enjoy it. She is presently moored on a swing mooring which will go with the boat if wanted.

The old trailer was converted to a ramp trolley so the boat could be serviced when needed – anti foul etc, could be reconverted to a road trailer with new axle and springs if one wanted to. Happy to answer any questions (if I can) or serious buyers look play etc (tire kickers stay away please). I have a copy of a shipwrights report on the boat if your interested.I'm looking for around the $15,500 mark but also open to reasonable offers so if your looking for a fantastic boat with a good background why not make an offer you never know I might accept it, and don't forget the mooring (which are almost impossible to get) goes with it.
