Cobra Ribs 8.8m9m2005

COBRA 8.6m with Yanmar 315hp inboard FOR SALE - “Tickety” - £39,500

Tickety is a low hours mid 2000's (2005) Cobra 8.6m with a Yanmar 315hp diesel inboard driving a Mercruiser Bravo Sterndrive with approx 600 hours. Super reliable - a serious workhorse and an all round great boat. We are selling as she is no longer suitable for our needs as we need something smaller for our teenage kids to learn to use. She has been a great boat and we will be very sad to see her go.

She is currently lying in Corfu, Greece but was bought here in the UK and is UK / SSR registered. I am intending to drive out and collect her over the winter but this can be done earlier if required quicker.

We are the third owners of this fantastic boat - original owners were Salcombe based and we bought her from the second owner who was based near Plymouth and used her in local waters and to shuttle to and from the Scillies.

We bought her in 2017 and took her to Corfu in early 2018. She has been serviced by an inboard engineer annually and never missed a beat. Massive torque / power - real workhorse and brilliant people carrier(planes easily with 15 on board). Tubes are in fair/good condition and hold air all season. Couple of patches but all are airtight. Tubes were cleaned professionally last winter. Hull is in good condition with no major dings or dents. Upholstery in good condition (renewed when we bought her) but a few of the cushions will need replacing after this season due to sun damage especially the bow cushion which is grubby as it is the entry point to the boat. Rub rail / rubbing strake which looks scruffy in the photos has now been renewed / replaced. (Some of these photos are late 2022 and this was done before she went on this year).

She comes with a full twin axle road trailer (which I will tow her back on), a full set of covers, fenders, an anchor, garmin, radio, removable sun bimini, swim platform and ladder, assorted fenders and lines, two sets of keys etc.

At time of writing, all gauges and electrics are working well.

She is currently in a yard in Greece.

We are looking for £39,500 ono for her.

Please message if interested and would be delighted to talk.
