Description
Nicely restored 1957 Shepherd 100 (18' LOA). Fresh 300hp Barr Marine V-8 (350ci GM block) with recently rebuilt Velvet Drive 1:1 transmission.

She was surveyed last year for insurance purposes. No findings of significance. Appraised value was established at just above $31,000.
Professional marine survey report from 2015 is available upon request.
This is a no disappointments example of a very rare model 100.
She has her original double planked bottom and soaks up very quickly.
A quality bunk/very roadworthy trailer along with a newer custom road cover is included.
