Wanted: Humber Ocean Pro 6.5 - 7mtr

Hello Folks,
I am in the market for a used Humber Ocean Pro. I am seeking a 6.5 or 7mtr model (Beam of 2.6mtr) and will consider any configuration, with or without engine(s), trailer, full-cover.
The vessel would ideally be 4-6 years old, must be structurally sound, tubes perfect, clean and well-loved. I am not looking for a “project”, but a rib that is ready for the water (this season’s winter use).
If an engine(s) is/are fitted, a readout and FSH is essential.

Happy to travel through the UK/ROI to review etc. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Kindest Regards, DMK

Ps: If my search is successful, I plan to sell my Ocean Pro 5.7 (2007) with Suzuki 115 which is ready for the water. Further details on request.

Have you tried contacting Humber directly? They may have trade ins or customers looking to sell.

My buddy called humber this week. He reckons they said they have nothing coming through as trade ins at the moment, it all sells privately.
