Hello all not been on here for quite some time.
I am looking at buying a Atlanta 24 with a inboard diesel. Think its about 1988 but cant seem to find any other 24 with a inboard diesel.
No owners site on the internet to ask so wondered if anyone on here knew anything about this model.

Got any piccies of the engine setup?
Depending on how it's been done could be a good boat but take a good sniff inside before buying as bad inboard diesel setups can permeate through everything if bilge is full of oil and crud.

Its basically a Norman 24 with an inboard I assume. Most 24's were powered by outboards but there must be an inboard version around. I can't recall one on our own listings but then I hardly recall getting up this morning! As Dave says, try and stick some pictures up for us.

Seems there is also a "Waveney Avocet" which might suggest its on the Broads.
