2000 Cranchi Smeraldo 37

location icon Ipswich, Suffolk, United Kingdom
Year 2000
Length 37'0 ft / 11.28 m
Price
£72,000

The 37 Smeraldo is a very popular and elegant model from the Cranchi brand. Designed and built by Cranchi in Italy, they are known for their excellent build quality, innovative design and good handling characteristics. This model includes a large cockpit and canopy and is powered by two excellent Volvo KAD 44 engines with approximately 1100 recorded hours.

Included in the photos is a picture of the hinge mechanism on the radar bridge. This allows the airdraft to be reduced down from 10 feet to just over 6 feet making navigation of waterways such as the Norfolk Broads or Thames much easier and was designed by Cranchi to make transportation by road easier and more cost effective.

With comfortable accommodation for up to 6 people in two cabins, the 37 offers a spacious layout and good head room. This example includes hot and cold pressured water and diesel fired heating.

Recently serviced, and new batteries just fitted plus an overhaul of drive legs in 2022, this is a very well presented boat and definitely one to be seen.
