The Valk Kruiser 12.50 is presented in a good order throughout. She is a very comfortable Dutch steel-built displacement cruising boat, that is well suited for a long period onboard. Her spacious interior is very comfortable, warm and hospitable. Her single DAF diesel and bow thruster enable her to be used on inland waters as well as coastal cruising. She was last surveyed in 2022 with no significant defects found, good steel thickness and very minor corrosion found. Well worth an early viewing.
