Owners Notes:  

Customs & Excise have reclassified boats providing live aboard facilities that have a Gross Weight exceeding 15 metric tons, which Dushara easily exceeds, moving them into the Ship Category. The result is that this category of ships are zero rated for VAT. This applies to any mooring fees and maintenance cost plus fuel. Dushara was approved and is therefore Zero VAT rated, giving you a savings of £2,800+ yearly, just another great reason for purchasing our Widebeam beauty!

The boat was built by Colecraft and purchased by the original owner as a ‘Sail Away’ with no internals fitted in 2005, all internal design and fit was carried out and completed by the original owner in 2007.

Current owners, one of whom is a successful marine architect, are sad to let her go and have maintained her correctly throughout their ownership. Full records and documents from the original owner’s build and all works and invoices from the original and current owners are on board and available. The current owners have sensibly invested in the following works and furnishings within the past 18-24 months:  

• Internals redecorated, fresh paint, newly fitted side window hatch - 2023 (April)
• Externally hull and entire deck repainted 2023 (April)
