About
Marketing Description
Rare opportunity to purchase the much sought after Starfisher 840WA. This is without a doubt one of the best built production 8M hulls I have had through my hands and she will tick most of the boxes required by the angling and cruising fraternity. If you are after a cruising boat from which you can fish or looking for an angling boat to go further afield in and have overnight stops then 'Double Trouble' is the one. Powered by a well maintained single 315 hp Yanmar diesel she will cruise happily at 15-18 knots. Timing belt was replaced in 2018. Accommodation is superb with an offset double berth, heads with shower and galley. Wheelhouse dinette converts to an additional single berth. Well equipped with navigation aids including colour Raymarine C80 chartplotter with radar overlay, Lowrance HDS10 colour depth/fishfinder and Raymarine 240e DSC VHF. Bennet trim tabs, electric windlass and sea water deck wash and live bait pumps.
Mechanical
