English
This vessel was the first of the most recent batch of 6 Storebro 500's produced and then rebadged as the SRC 515 for sale as from year 2001 . With the owner and Storebro, the interior was redesigned to give a good level 2 single berth mid cabin, where the older raised floor dinette was on previous older SRC 500 models. This also incorporated an office area and revamped electric/switch panels.
This new configuration then became the standard for the following SRC 515's.
The vessel was built and bought from Storebro in July 2000, collected from the factory by the owner, and has been used solely by the owner ever since.
The vessel has the fly bridge extension that was subsequently added to the following SRC 515 models.
This Storebro 500 is fitted with Scania D12 engines with the access space between the engines in the engine room being excellent, compared to the larger Man engines fitted in many of the previous older Storebro 500's and this makes maintenance comparatively easy.
