Broker's Comments

This is a fair example of the classic 6-berth motor cruiser, built in Sweden.

This was the smaller sister of the successful Royal Cruiser 34. She's the same width, but about one meter shorter. Built in a solid single-skin GRP but with a beautiful mahogany wheelhouse, the 31 is a well-constructed motor yacht.

Powered by 2 x Volvo TAMD40A turbo-diesels, each providing 130hp to shaft drives she has a max speed of around 21 knots.

She is fairly well presented but does need some TLC. Accommodation is ample, with two double berths and 2 single bunks (in the wheelhouse).

She was last antifouled and new anodes in 2020. She also had new batteries around that time.

The boat has a wonderful light and airy feel to her and is only for sale as the owners are no longer able to take her out, due to ill-health.
