Project 31 Cruiser

Serious offers will be considered
Get your hands on this professionally part restored classic cruiser complete with most items required to finish.
The story began on Newport Street in Plymouth in 1965. It was here that ex-Naval officer David King and two friends started a company called Marine Projects.
Their first model, which was named Project 31, was built on the hull of a Senior 31 and fitted out in a rented shed.
From such humble beginnings, Marine Projects made huge advances. Over 150 Project 31 yacht models were sold in the following four years and have therefore become the initial success story behind the 1969 launch of the Princess 32 – the first model to bear the name.
She is on the market at a great price and the so don’t hang around get yourself a boat for the summer sun.
It is presently ashore in our workshop.
Margaret Ham, although requiring some TLC offers a lot of scope, she benefits from some useful upgrades such as warm air heating, a major refit in 2023 which included the wheelhouse extension being refurbished, including new lockers, both of the two engines have been extensively overhauled and reinstalled, two of the stern bulkheads were replaced. Indeed, the current spend with us on the refurbishment is over £17,000. Full details of work done available to a serious purchaser.
We are currently installing fuel tanks and carrying out other works as time alllows. the result is the price for this classic is going up as more of the work is now complete.
Also included in the sale are 2 x new fuel tanks currently being refitted and two boxes of spares.
The current owners are Ex Pats and have used Margaret Ham as their UK base for their holidays for several years. Unfortunately, the two-year Covid pandemic, resultant ban on travel and advancing years has made the owners re-evaluate their plans. They as a result have reluctantly taken the decision to sell Margaret Ham.
Step on board, through the double doors to enter the spacious extended wheel house, which has newly installed seating and lockers. The dinette converts into a double bed. Then down a couple of steps into the galley and dinette area. Forward of which is a two-berth cabin. The upholstery is in very good condition |

Senior 31ft motor cruiser
£10,000 |
 |
This senior 31 is midway through an extensive mechancial and interior refurbishment. The current owner has become illand is unable to conitune with this project.
Whilst the interior is ready to be started, much of the engineering work has been commenced. Engines have been removed and rebuilt at a cost of almost £10,000, along with new bell housings, transom mounts, outdrives refurbished and new props all ready to be installed.
As can be seen from the photographs, stainless steel stanchions and railings, a SS teak bathing platform and SS davit system are all there ready to be refitted as desired. A complete new rubber rubbing strake is also included with the sale.
The hull is in good condition overall and in need of cosmetic rejuvenation. Tt may be possible to bring back the orignal surface, or painting a vessel of this age should also be considered as prep wouild be more favourable than any potential significant gel coat repairs.
Internal construction of the original fit out is of good quality and much of it will likely just need cleanign up. It is though, an ideal opportunity to add personal touches and design and some of the surfaces would benefit from renewal and modernisation to suit you. |

Dumb Barge for conversion - BW No8
£29,500 |
 |
Here is a rare opportunity to buy this 82ft dumb barge. Orignally built for British Waterways and the river severn dredging operation of old, this is barge No.8. Built approximately late 50's, we think. Constructed with pre nuclear produced British steel in 10mm or 12mm thickness. There has has been little to no plate loss since. A survey is available to view with the vessel.
Perfect for conversion to create your ideal floating home. No8 Barge is of a size large enough to be a good sized family home with room for 3 double bedrooms, mulptiple reception areas, large entertaining and deck spaces. The dead space at fore and aft would be ideal for all plant and equipment to be housed.
If one was thinking about going more off grid, then a water source heat pump, on a flowing river, is a great heating/cooling solution to be added to any solar, wind and water power generation set up being considered.
Finding a barge ready for conversion on an existing mooring is a rare opportunity to kick start your journey to your dream floating family home.
She is flat bottomed with flat sloping front and rear sections. It is an 82ft long by 16ft wide hopper barge. The Hopper itself is 60ft by 14ft wide at the top point. Narrowing to approx 8ft at the bootom of the 8ft deep space. The load area is supported with steel braces along the entire length of these sideballast tanks.
A repair is required to a mooring bollard. As can be seen isn the photos, there is is also some minor impact damage to the stern port quarter. Repairing this would allow the hopper to be put back into service |
