Horatio Conkerhead is a fine example of a Burscough 70 Widebeam with a bespoke fitout and a 12 and a half beam adds to the comfortability when living aboard or cruising along the waterways. The 7ft height ceilings also accompanies taller passengers and gives off a grander feel to the vessel.
The Barrus Shire 90 engine is more than enough power in faster flowing waters and the bow thrusters aids you in manoeuvring and berthing. Horatio has all the appliances you need to live on for longer periods of time, which include a dishwasher, clothes dryer and washing machine which is rare to have all three. In addition, Horatio has an effective generator that always helps when having limited access to shore power.
Along with this, the head is multi-purpose with the option to have a shower or a bath and in the saloon, you can enjoy a relaxing time with company whilst watching TV on either of the two reclining sofas. The master cabin being at the front of the vessel allows you to enjoy a morning drink on the bow whilst being in the sunshine.
