Yes, I thought that. Looks scruffy and in need of a good clean from those pics.

I meant the style of boat ! I read that it's a 1980s build originally. I just personally prefer the older styling

Aye, I'm talking about the boat itself, not the cleanliness!

That, to my eyes, isn't a particularly attractive boat.

Looks like it would be more at home on the Dover/Calais run.

Hull has potential imho, just a shame about the superstructure they plonked on it.

One of my favourite yachts, Ngoni, is for sale, not quite £60 million but much more my type of boat:

It has had a lot of 'additions' to the superstructure since it was built, some of which were better thought out than others...

As for the scruffyness, there's a reason why it's been in Gibdock for so long and it's not because the owner is 100% happy with it's condition!
