ALAN PAYNE CUSTOM  

Safe strong Blue water cruiser complete refit like new.
I just finished a full paint job on her and new antifouling 2 weeks ago had her valued and certified for insurance purposes lots of time and money spent on her
Five years ago a full refit including sandblasting inside and out, fresh silky oak fit out brand- new Engine, Gearbox, shaft, electronics, the works, it's basically a new yacht with a refurbished hull.

I was told it was a navy boat but since have talking to a owner down the line he believes it was a not navy boat but a cobalt steel yacht a steel which back then was used for military purposes and quote was a luxury sydney harbour pleasure yacht.

It was a yawl, launched in 53, with a 54 air cooled Enfield, horizontally opposed pistons X2.
Totally alloy engine commonly used in tanks running a Genset in the desert.
It cruised Sydney Harbour and had the largest ladies washroom/head. ( Still has huge head )

So bit unsure of the model he couldn't remember, I've only had Garuda for 3 years
