I bought this boat with a mate. Me and him have kayaked for years and loved it. We wanted to upgrade to powered craft. Turns out he gets terribly sea sick if he’s not paddling or steering the boat. Hence we are selling our beloved craft.

We’ve spent countless hours and many hundreds of pounds on this boat over the past year. She is a much better vessel since we’ve known her.
Contact me at simon.driscoll@gmail.com if you want to buy it. We’d like serious offers around £4,500.
This is the ideal starter boat or hobby fishing boat. As you can see from the photos the 498 is the perfect balance of indoor and outdoor space that won’t cost a fortune to moor.
This Shetland 498 comes with the following:
- 50hp Mariner engine
- Doel Fins
- Fish Finder
- Rod Holders
- VHF Radio
- CD Radio & Speakers
