1976 Broom Ocean 37

Equally at home cruising canals or exploring the coast, the Broom Ocean 37 makes an ideal liveaboard, or comfortable family cruiser. Maranoa has berths for seven in two cabins and the saloon, and two separate heads compartments. The cockpit cover increases the protected space, and can be converted to a bimini top or completely removed when the sun has got it’s hat on. The current owner kept the vessel Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) compliant allowing him the flexibility to cruise and berth in canals as well as exploring lochs and islands around the coast. Twin 147hp Perkins diesels will get her on the plane when required, and the Neco autohelm allows hands-off control during longer passages.The Company offers the details of this vessel in good faith but cannot guarantee or warrant the accuracy of this information nor warrant the condition of the vessel.
