DESCRIPTION Register with Boatshed to see 60 extra photos of this Rival 32 Mk III. A good working example of this robust, go-anywhere cruiser. Whilst aboard taking the photographs the engine was quietly purring away in the background and I was impressed at how little vibration there was. Although these boats are not known for their fancy frippery, the saloon was nonetheless a pleasant place to spend some time and she has a Taylors diesel heater to extend the number of months you can use her. The impressive looking Monitor self-steering gear requires a mention, as a new one would set you back £5,000. The mainsail had a crisp feel to it and appears in good order. Overall a keenly priced Rival 32' that is ready to set sail. These boat details are subject to contract. Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered. This Rival 32 Mk III has been personally photographed and viewed by Peter Watt of Boatshed Portsmouth. Click for more details
