FOR SALE: Burmah Queen
    LOA 56 feet, beam 12.5 feet, draft 6 feet. She was built in Germany for the Port Police of Hamburg, Germany and launched in 1926
    The boat is well known amongst the NWSS members and has participated in many meets and at one time was a "live aboard" for the current owner.
    The owner "hauled" her to remove the ageing scotch type boiler and found the hull also required replacing of plates in the "coal bunker" midship area. Age and funding have slowed the process and due to a sale of the storage property she must be moved. The engine, boiler and auxilliary machinery have been removed and are stored at the owner's shop.
    Additional information may be found at: HERE
 
$12,000 "as is, where is" including all machinery.
