The seller at the time (May 2020) noted the following: Launched in 1961, Maree II was job number 1162 in the Halvorsen yard. A 24ft Sea Skiff design by Harvey Halvorsen, to be a capable offshore fishing vessel. Sister ships are Gypsy and Sujane II. Maree II was fully restored in the 90's by John Newport who had restored a number of Halvorsens. She was stripped, strengthened, rebuilt and re varnished. The hull below the waterline was sheathed, ensuring longevity, watertight and structural integrity and reduced maintenance. She now looks about as good as these pictures show, with 2 pack timber sides, rich varnished coach house and details, original Halvorsen cast chrome deck features, a refurbished Cummins 4BT 150 Horsepower Turbo Diesel, new teak laid decks and a custom made helm chair. She has a round bilge clinker planked hull (sheathed) with a covered wheelhouse and enclosed lower cabin which has a kitchenette, a separate toilet with wash basin and two nicely upholstered bench seats which double as berths.
