History
The superstructure of the vessel as been extended to incorporate the forward well,
thus increasing the internal accommodation available. Amy was last out of the water
in 2008 at which time she was painted with bitumen. The vessel will be coming out of
the water in May 2016 for blacking with Bitumen and this is included in the sales
price.
The vessel is being sold with the possible option of a fully residential berth at High
Line Yachting, Iver. In the last year a new inverter, battery charger, Morco gas boiler,
solid fuel stove and freezer have been installed.
The last survey was carried out in 2014.
