This business is only for sale due to an unfortunate medical condition.
One can only guess at what that is to convince yourself that a tired old Suzi 225 (Racing!) with cable steering can project that poor little vessel with 10 passengers and 2 crew to over 90 mph!

First of all £1000 a week for a couple of months in the summer and that's it for the year - very nice if you don't spend any money in the winter!

I wouldn't like to guess on the age of that Suzuki, but put it this way they have improved a lot in recent years - they weren't called Alka Seltzers for nothing!

Only having a laff anyway!
