Wanted: Avon Adventurer 4m

Anyone got a an Avon Adventurer they want to sell? Ideally one with blue tubes and a white hull (not sure they make any other colour combos!). Any engine considered. Not bothered about a trailer. If you have, please email me a photo and price to tim at yachtsandpowerboats dot co.uk

Many thanks

Quite probably a buyer was using one of those websystems that you have an offer made on last seconds. Not quite sure how they work but I know someone who uses one for most buys

Hopeless in any kind of chop.Tubes let in water if not fully pressurised which means it turns into a submarine very quickly.One time my mate and I were kitting up to go diving ...there was so much water in boat we were getting an electric shock from the salty stuff reaching the battery terminals!!!!! Pile of poo!!!!!!!!!!!Only bought it cos I used to have an sr4 and thought it might be of similar quality.....IT IS NOT!!!!!!!!!! AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHH

This boat is only really going to be used to potter around the Salcombe estuary so doesn't need to be very hard core so not too worried about it's rough water performance.
