Description
The Mitchell 31 MKII
is well renowned for her sea-keeping abilities and strong build. ‘Turmoil’ is well equipped for family days out, fishing trips or even the occasional weekend away. The addition of a cockpit cover allows for comfortable use in all conditions. This example has been cared for meticulously in her current ownership and is in very good condition because of it.

Accommodation
The accommodation offers two births in a forward cabin. Open saloon with a well appointed galley to starboard equipped with a Plastimo two burner stove with oven and grill, hot and cold pressurised water and a fridge. To port is an electric heads and wash basin. Plenty of stowage throughout. The wheelhouse has bench seating to starboard and a helm position to port with excellent visibility around the boat. The large aft cockpit has recently had the surrounding bench seating and engine cover upholstered and a cockpit enclosure fitted, making the area much more comfortable than a standard boat. LED light bars on the aft of the wheelhouse assist in night time operating.
Of note is the starboard side door to the cockpit installed on request of a previous owner, this offers excellent ease of access to the boat.
She has 250 approximately litres of pressurised hot/cold fresh water heated by immersion and engine. Approximately 100 litres holding tank capacity.
She has a flat screen television mounted on the forward bulkhead above the births and a CD/stereo in the wheelhouse.

Located under the central seating in the cockpit in an insulated engine bay is a Ford Mermaid 185hp turbo diesel engine. Raw water cooled.

She holds approximately 500 litres of fuel in a stainless steel tank. Serviced yearly in current ownership of seven years. She also benefits from a Vetus bow thruster and trim tabs.
