Register with Boatshed to see 105 extra photos of this Truman Defender 40 .Here we have a great opportunity to acquire a unique and one off cruiser. This wooden 40 foot Truman was designed and built in 1963. The current owner bought her and ran her down the river to where she was lifted for refurbishment work but has now divided to just seller her as she is after some work has been done. The decks are new and have been fully fiberglass sheathed and she has a low hour nanni diesel fitted and a lot of requiring work recently re done. She needs a fair bit of TLC and finishing but she is all there and the local wooden boat yard specialist where she is stored will be on hand to help and advise and also when launched manage the take up of the hull while the wood re swells. She has been ashore now for two years while works were being done and she can remain where she is. She had a full survey in 2019 (available) and has a separate rear cabin with twin berths and dresser and a large heads and shower compartment. The cockpit has weighted cantilever hard folding top and folding screens to allow bridge clearance. The saloon is large and has an attached across the boat galley with fridge and cooker. Forward is the twin bow cabin and additional heads. This is being sold as a project so will need finishing but represents a great and well priced opportunity to acquire a large and one off stylish wooden cruiser. Offers will be considered so get in touch if you have interest. These boat details are subject to contract. Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.This Truman Defender 40 has been personally photographed and viewed by Stephen Biggs of Boatshed Norfolk.
