Broker's Comments
This is where the Classic Nelson marque began. Craftsman built of the finest materials she is a real gentleman's motor cruiser from a bye-gone era. However, this classic Nelson motor yacht is now, sadly, in a state of genteel decline. The elderly girl is just crying out for sympathetic restoration and such a task is not for the fainthearted. However, a serious enthusiast would find hours of satisfying work which would eventually be rewarded by ownership of a fine piece of our maritime heritage!
