Just my take on what I've heard/read but....

The owner, who is very ill has not had time to visit her at her moorings in southampton, she was put up for sale on ebay for £13k or so, during the listing the owner found she had sunk(via phone) but engines were removed when she sank, by the boatyard, the engines therefore are out of the boat and fully refurbed and ready to go, thus the engines can eaisly be sold separatley and "if it doesn't make what it owes the owner it will be broken" thus the engines are part of that, the figure I was told for it's owings is around £10k. Take from that what you will.

Is anyone interested in buying her, perhaps buying her without engines and she'd be a cheap project, S6M's are for sale for hundreds so a complete boat may be able to be had for less than £5,000

Sorry, must have not been very clear, "owing the owner" as in what it's cost plus any repairs etc he's had done to it, so he may have paid £8k and had 2k's worth of engine repairs, for instance. Are you interested?

'Fraid so;
