28ft Narrowboat liveaboard for sale. Wonderful starter boat!
This is a rare and wonderful starter boat in need of a few minor repairs, woodwork, stove, the waterheater, gas plumbing and engine are fine. A Good Springer hull, I lived on this boat for over 2.5years. It has a propeller I put on myself, (ask for details), and a reliable cc diesel engine in the wheelhouse, a unique point for me was that you can sit sheltered in a center wheel house driving the boat down the canal a bit like a car, watching other boaters get wet maneuvering their boat from the stern. An 8.5KW Renai waterheater, over 200Litres water capacity, a shower, 2 hob top oven/grill. A sink, both connected to an 8.5KW water heater with 2x 6kg gas bottle compartment in the bow, lasts approx. 4 weeks sparing use. Lighting is 4xcabins lights in the bedroom and living area, with a brighter light in the wheelhouse. All LED and a powerful spot light on the roof for cruising at night. There are 2x75Watt solar panels on the roof of the bedroom connected to a regulator. There is a split charge relay connected, so the starter battery is the priority but when charged flips onto charging the leisure batteries. There is an old 2 stroke petrol 50cc generator that I can leave with the boat. It comes with a boat folder, approx. 9year boat history including sales, maintenance, insurance and river registration. The stove and chimney needs some repair or replacing, there are a few options there and some wood needs repairing, electrics needs a look at but not relatively hard to fix. I have loved my time living aboard this vessel, name, port and brandy, reg. , you can change the registration you cant change the name, bad luck! unless you write the old name on a bottle and throw it in the hull. By where the mattress goes, there are 2 windows that you can open to let in a breeze or look out of over the water. any questions? contact me. Ad ID: Delivery Service Consumer Credit
