1947 Stebbings Motor Cruiser

Sonbar is a beautifully crafted motor cruiser built in 1947 by Stebbings to a design by J.H. Hardman. Measuring 33'6" in length with a 10'2" beam and a 3' draft, she is a fine example of post-war British boatbuilding, robust, elegant, and wonderfully usable.

Lovingly maintained over the years, Sonbar remains powered by her original twin Ford Parsons D80 four-cylinder diesel engines, a testament to both their reliability and the care she has received. Her previous long-term owner cherished her for over a decade, keeping her in fine fettle, and she has been enjoyed by her current owner for one season.

Her interior offers a comfortable and versatile layout, ideal for cruising rivers or estuaries. A recently fitted galley hob and new berth mattresses enhance onboard comfort, while her large anchor makes her perfectly suited for lying midstream and spending peaceful nights on the water.

At an asking price of £35,000, Sonbar represents exceptional value, a capable and characterful motor cruiser that blends classic charm with practical usability.
