Yesterdays assignment was to
Survey this Bounty Sovereign Sedan for Pre Purchase.
The Sovereign range was one of the last designs by Bounty. The Sedan 34 version was built as both a dual helm model, featuring both external helm and a second located in the central saloon and single helm models. The single helm had just the external helm, with folding canopy over. The galley and forward bathroom layouts changed as did the saloon layout which offered an even more sociable area with additional seating space.

| As with many of the Sovereign range, the moulds are now used by other manufacturers which can make identifying those produced by Bounty more difficult. |
Bounty Boats was formed by Mike
Brister, and in 1968 was sold to Peter Brown. At the time the company was a
small hirefleet of assorted craft, based at Brundall on the Norfolk Broads.
Surveyors comments: These are
very popular cruisers. Ideal for the European canals, Ireland and also perfect for the
Norfolk Broads. They don’t stay on Brokerage for very long and also don't come cheap. A 1998 version still holds 70K.
