Remarks :
This 2004 Aquastar 38 Aft Cabin is a one owner boat from new and is powered by well minded twin Yanmar 315hp shaft driven diesel engines with only 1250 engine hours approx. Her layout includes twin steering stations, large cabin aft with en-suite, main saloon, dinette further forward with galley opposite, forward cabin and forward heads. Her inventory includes generator, bow thruster, stern thruster, trim tabs, hot water, heating, shore-power, colour chart plotter, radar, auto-pilot, log, depth and much more. "Lynne IV" has oodles of room both on deck and below. She certainly feels larger than her 38 feet might suggest. This boat is in pristine condition and viewing is highly recommended.

Owner's Comments
"Lynne IV" was ordered from Aqua Star in Guernsey in late 2003 and we took delivery in May 2004. We brought it back to Ireland for the summer and returned it to Southampton to be exhibited on the Aqua Star stand in September. It wintered in Guernsey for its first service and then returned by sea to Ireland in 2005. Its ideal cruising speed is 15 knots and its top speed is over 20 knots. Full Irish vat was paid in 2004.
Since purchasing the boat we have made many trips to the Scilly Isles, south of England and Guernsey. We have cruised the south of Ireland many times up as far as Dingle. She has always been wintered indoors, serviced every year and any work required was immediately carried out. The boat is in very very good condition and the interior is practically in a new state.
Broker's Comments
"Lynne IV" has spent all her life in the South Coast of Ireland and has been lovingly maintained by her fastidious owners from new. She is a fine sea boat wanting for nothing. The owners are retiring from motorboating hence the reason for selling.
