I used a contract unlimited sim this will not come with the boat but i’ll advise and help with this part.This boat was really looked after buy the previous owner as she is a coal craft hull 1991 and had a survey done before I bought her. She has no leaks to the hull ect and is in an outstanding condition. Unfortunately, the previous owner has the survey report which I do not have access to.I would be happy to provided a disclaimer if you bought her and had a survey. I would guarantee if a survey was done within 3 months of buying her subject to this been done at Braunston marina. That if hull work was needed I would pay towards this up to the value of £5,000 (five thousand pounds) if full asking price of the boat is offered.Work conducted on the boat was by auto electricians a shop fitter for the fit out and was done to the highest of standards.The whole re fit cost over 20k last year.Engine work was carried out by Rose Narrowboats at Rugby and then other parts that they did not have time to do due to our schedule were done by Braunston Marina including the stern gland work too. I spent around £1500 on engine bits and £1600 on solar charger and batteries.- New search light for tunnels or winter see image.- We used modern paraffin lamps which we wanted, however this was subject to our choice and these will be removed should you not want these. She is an older boat with a new fit out but she is great fun and has brought us memories that will last for ever and a new baby. (Hence the sale)* DISCLAIMER *I will not be held responsible for any babies which may appear after buying the boat. She is currently moored on the Ashby Canal. *Viewing will be by appointment only*The current mooring, as perfect as it is, unfortunately, is not included with the boat.
