At 43ft,
she’s very manoeuvrable, easy to drive / turn around and to find a mooring. She has great headroom at 6’4 giving the inside a light and airy feel.
Being a traditional Liverpool built boat, she’s a lovely shape
and sits well in the water with nice detailing in the steel work. Also you
have the added benefit of a protected / dry engine bay, that you don’t get on
stern cruisers.
She’s a
great boat, and I’ve travelled over 150 miles on her in the past year.
The engine
is a 2 cylinder Air Cooled DEUTZ marine. It has undergone a full oil change in the past year, plus a brand new starter motor, timing belt, and all new
batteries x 4. The alternator has also been tested and is charging optimally at 14.5 volts.
I have
lived on her for the past year and she makes a lovely cosy home, now with all
the mod-cons you can expect these days on a good example fully functioning narrow boat.
Boat is also fitted with full 240V hook up and multiple plug
sockets throughout (12 volt and 240 volt), if you choose to live in a marina.
Only selling due to a change in circumstance.
Thanks for looking. Any questions please send me a message.
Boat is currently moored near Bath.
