It is rare that we are brave enough to describe a used boat as being in excellent condition - but in this case we have no hesitation. In many areas this boat truly is better than new. This is probably the most expensive Mitchell 31 Mk.1 on the market - and it should be.
The Mitchell 31's reputation is as solid as the boats themselves - seriously heavy duty pilot-boat inspired fisher / dive boat / cruisers - with the emphasis on heavy duty. Proper little ships!
This example has to be seen to be appreciated - the owner has very skillfully refittted and maintained this boat to a very high standard. It was his first boat and was a perfect introduction to offshore motor-cruising and he has now upgraded to a larger boat.
