A 4 berth Narrowboat designed in the popular reverse layout, this vessel offers a galley located aft, a saloon with an L shaped Dinette, a bathroom with pump out loo, and the master cabin with a fixed double berth is located forward. Powered by a Lister SW2 20hp water cooled diesel engine. Cabin heating is provided by an Alde gas boiler. Hot water is supplied by an engine calorifier. 12v and 240v electrics are fitted.

Interior Arrangements

Galley

Entering the boat from the large cruiser stern, the U shaped galley has a 4 burner gas hob and separate under counter gas oven located to port with the sink conveniently near.  Cupboard space under the sink and additional shelves aft provide useful storage space. The 12v fridge is opposite under a small counter top with a portable washing machine just forward.

Saloon

An L shaped dinette converts to a double bed and has additional storage built in.  The dining table can be separated into halves to create a feeling of more space if desired.  A TV is wall mounted opposite with a small cupboard underneath.  Two full height cupboards with shelves and hanging space give ample storage.

Bathroom

A pump out toilet and shower are found to starboard, with a hand basin located to port.

Master Cabin

Forward is a fixed double bed with storage underneath. A small TV is wall mounted at the foot of the bed, next to the door leading to the forward well deck.
