Description
New Information: Big Al is now currently in Hull marina. She is undergoing considerable upgrades and further new photos will follow soon. She will have a new stack pack and refreshed canvas work.
PART EXCHANGE OFFERS FOR A SMALLER VESSEL WILL BE CONSIDERED.
Bruce Roberts 434, built and fitted out to a high standard by the current owners, who have toured the Mediterranean and used the vessel as a long distance cruiser. The vessel has been used as a liveaboard for a period also, but is currently situated in prime location at Hartlepool Marina awaiting viewings.
The upholstery was newly fitted in 2018 and hasn’t had much use. The spray hood also has a full cockpit enclosure, ideal to keep off sun or rain depending on the berthing location.
She was lifted out in August 2024 for a full re-paint and antifoul treatments as well as new anodes.
For UK Sailing the full shelter is great in marina berths and the vessel benefits from a great heating system with radiators throughout.
Viewings by appointment only, currently berthed at Hartlepool Marina.
