Saga 20 GRP motor launch built by Saga Boats, Norway in 1975.
The Saga 20 is a vessel not often seen in the UK but quite common in Scandinavia. Often fitted with a forward cuddy, this boat is completely open apart from the fore and aft decks. They are solidly built, sturdy and capable boats.
This vessel had a new Beta 20hp engine fitted in and has been kept undercover every winter.
Perfect family boats, they are capable of coastal passages and have a lot of space and volume inside making them comfortable for days out.
Comfortable seating for 7 people but space for more if desired.
