This rugged Seaward 23 has been well equipped and very well looked after by her current owners.  ‘Shaheen’ was built in 2004 and benefits from the larger, 2 x 100hp engine option giving her a smart turn of speed when required.

The Seaward 23 is a capable seaworthy vessel with a large cockpit/wheel-house area for a vessel of her size.  Her sea-handling characteristics belie her size.
