Horizon 35 Broads cruiser (1976) on a residential mooring at a lovely private marina with handy boatyard and chandlery, in between two London Metropolitan line stations. 35 ft x 12 ft, this boat is a F B Wilds original build, in excellent condition has huge and comfortable living space whilst not being too long, making the licence anf mooring costs much cheaper than bigger widebeand while not compromising on space. With a very unique layout, which was professionally fitted out by the legendary Herbert Woods, this ex hire boat doesn’t look like any other broads cruiser I’ve seen. I have lovingly upgraded the very retro interior and added a brand new blue enamel multi fuel stove, unusually in the centre which is much more efficient for heat distribution and weight balance. The boat also has a new diesel air blow heater which keeps the boat toasty all night and day. The stove is back up heating but nothing beats sitting in front of a cracking glowing stove.The back cabin has lots of storage, a fancy 3 poster bed at angle, with access to the spacious and welcoming en-suite shower cubicle. I have created a small walk in wardrobe area to hang clothes. A sliding door leads to the open plan kitchen, dinette area and lounge. The separate toilet cubicle is accessed in this cabin, it’s electric flush with a large waste tank. There’s a lovely comfy outside seating well deck off the lounge, and a decent cratch cover so this area can be used in all weather conditions. I transported this baby from Norfolk by road, and have had a lot of work done on this boat, with a new survey (Nov 23) of which I have completed all the recommendations. It’s been anti foiled with freshly painted hull in Nov 23, with refurbished steering, new batteries, reinforcing gunnels, new flooring, new upholstery, fresh decor, 12v tv, upgraded gas connections. I had the water tank professionally relocated to create the space for the stove. The long kitchen provides good worktop space, a top of the range Italian marine LPG over, and 12v Shoreline fridge with small freezer compartment. The boat has hot water through a calorifier that works by a flick of a button by shore power when in the marina, or by running the engine when off grid. The reliable and sturdy engine purrs like a kitten and doesn’t smoke. It is housed inside the large dining table and well sound insulated. The boat has a valid BSS until 2027, new survey and can come with the residential mooring (£420 p/m), making this floating one bed apartment a turnkey experience for its next owner, and a cheap way to live the London life.Please contact me to arrange a viewing.
