Sealine as a brand are renowned for the quality of the interior fit out and their use of available space. This S23 is a great example of this and will both impress and delight in equal measure. The entry onto the boat is swift and easy via an opening door to the rear of the transom. To starboard is a companionable seating area for 4 with a central table. The table is removable and acts as a base for a large sun pad. Opposite is the cockpit fridge, so you don’t have to stretch far to reach a cold one. Raised helm position with double helm seat. Sporty dash with full engine instrumentation, cart area and flush mounted electronic navigation aids.
Sliding lockable door in smoked Perspex lets in light but offer privacy. Three steps down and to port is a functional galley area with 2-burner gas hob, stainless steel sink and lots of storage. Opposite the galley is the heads compartment with sea toilet, sink unit and pull out shower with sump pump out. 'U' shaped seating area forward with table and 12v lighting. This area will convert to a very large double berth. Permanent berth aft beneath the cockpit sole. 12v lighting and opening hatch for ventilation.
Sealine S23 - 2004 - New to the market and very keenly priced to sell at £28,000. The Sealine S23 model is regarded as one of the best small sports cruisers around and make an excellent starting point for people upgrading from RIB’s or smaller cuddy cabins to a far more comfortable and capable boat for overnights and weekends away. This boat was been well looked after and maintained and is fitted with the preferred Volvo Penta KAD32 (170hp) diesel engine providing a good balance of power, performance and economy. She was moth balled in 2021 due to Covid and has not been used since although she will have new batteries and a full service. This deceptively spacious sports cruiser can sleep 4 - there is a double middle cabin and the saloon offers another 2 berths. With a fully equipped galley and separate toilet/shower compartment the S23 is the perfect weekender. Just cleaned and polished, just add some summer weather!
