I bought my Shetland 570 in October 2023 and replaced the Mercury o/b with an Epropulsion Navy 6 Longshaft, together with 2 48v E60 batteries, battery charger and Epropulsion side control. The new engine is wonderfully silent. However, my wife and I have found the boat too big for our needs as we use it only on the north Norfolk Broads. Therefore we are looking to exchange it for a smaller dayboat. Plan A would be to buy a dayboat, transfer the Shetland's electric o/b to it and fit a petrol outboard to the Shetland before selling it. Plan B would be to sell the Shetland with the electric o/b and then by a dayboat for which we would fit another electric o/b. there are obviously variations on those two plans.
The Shetland is in good condition with a canopy and winter cover, various warps and fenders.
If you are interested and would like further details my email is [email protected] and mobile 07796 292 318.
