Avon Searider 4.7 wanted

Hi Chaps

I currently have a lovely Ribcraft 585 for sale and am trying to find a lovely original condition Avon Searider 4.7. Does anybody know of anything going now or in the near future. Boat needs to be in very good condition with no antifoul, good road worthy trailer and engine with service history preferred. I'm willing to pay good money for the right boat. Any suggestions on who it may be worth talking to would also be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Woody

Hi Searider

I drove 140 miles to look at that one today and the trailer was not in roadworthy condition.
Myself and the owner unfortunately could'nt come to a price comprimise we were both happy with.

Many thanks for the reply.

That SR4.7 looks excellent value. If it were me, I'd be rocking down there with a flatbed to load it onto.
