I bought this boat 2 years agofrom my marine technician colleague to live on it while working in the marina with boats. I'm staying on it summertimes it is in a liveable condition. I cleared the taxes and the boat is registered in Belgium. The Impulse is in a working condition: engine(good), electricity, diesel heater, solar panels, water, etc. It is equiped with a toilet, a kitchen counter with sink, a frigo, a double gas cooker, small electric grill, kettle, etc. The radio, life jackets, fire extinguisher, etc. The sails and the mast are stored in a container in the marina securely. The rigging should be fine, as well. The boat was renewed in 2021 but needs outside painting with some rustwork done, woodwork, small things to be fixed and the canopy is broken here and there but i'm still using it. I started to reinsulate the berth i'm sleeping in but it isn't finished, yet. I suddenly have the chance to get a boat more suitable to my needs, so the Impulse came available for sale and has to go fast. The asking price is 4500€ as it is, all in working condition.
