Some equipment is quite elderly and there is room for some improvements. A full documented history is available. SAROS has been used mainly in the Solent and Channel area and normally wintered ashore. Although treated for osmosis in 2016 and coppercoated, there is some failure in the copper coat near the anode and some osmosis apparent still! The cost to treat this (if deemed necessary) is reflected in the asking price.
