Broom 39 2+2
Yesterdays assignment was to Survey this 2005 Motor Crusier for Pre-purchase at Broom Boats. The 39 2+2 is a variation on the 39KL providing two ensuite cabins and an extended deck saloon. The dinette is removed, and the additional space is given over to the larger forward cabin and a bonus utility space, which can be used for a washing machine, a generator and additional stores.
Intended mainly for extended periods of cruising, the 2+2 is normally fitted with twin 260HP Yanmars and larger fuel tanks for longer range. This one had the D6 210HP Volvos fitted.
Surveyors comments: Typical Broom aft cabin semi-displacement cruiser with raised bridge deck. Always Survey very well. Always worth having a really good look at the window seals. Thinking of Buying a Boat and Need Help? I specialise in Boats of all types, and I will assist you to make an informed decision.

Alpha 29 Sportsbridge
Today’s assignment was to Survey for pre-purchase this unusual looking Broads Cruiser. The Alpha 29 Sportsbridge, I think about 20 were built and are available in a number of versions with different windows, either above or below the deck line. Usually outfitted as a two/four berth with two double cabins below the cockpit and a large saloon in the bows.
The vessel also benefits from a hinged arch allowing passage under all the low bridges.
