Owl a 25’ Narrowboat, built by Mick Sivewright in 1991. She offers a versatile and thoughtfully designed interior, ideal for day cruising, weekend escapes, or extended adventures afloat. The aft cabin houses a bathroom complete with a Porta Potti toilet. Moving forward, there is a port-side single Pullman-style dinette, which easily converts into a single berth when required, with a galley positioned opposite. The saloon features both port and starboard bench seating, which converts into a comfortable cross-width double berth, providing additional sleeping accommodation. A cleverly arranged internal layout maximises the available cabin space, with the ability to accommodate three berths within this compact design adding to the vessel’s charm. Propulsion is provided by a Volvo Penta 9.9hp diesel engine. Onboard comfort is enhanced by a multifuel stove, while hot water is supplied via the engine through a calorifier. The vessel is also equipped with 12V electrical systems. Recent maintenance includes blacking completed in November 2022. The Boat Safety Certificate is currently being renewed and will be valid until April 2030. The engine was last serviced in April 2024. Owl is now available to view seven days a week at Pyrford Marina. For further information or to arrange a viewing, please contact our team on 01932 340739.

Interior Arrangements

Galley

The galley is positioned to starboard and is well equipped with a 12V Shoreline fridge, gas hob and oven, and a stainless-steel sink with drainer and separate hot and cold taps.

Single Dinette

Located to port, the single Pullman-style dinette features forward- and aft-facing seating. This area converts easily into a single berth, with useful storage lockers beneath.

Saloon

Forward, the cabin provides direct access to the bow well deck. Port and starboard bench seating create a comfortable lounge space, which converts into a cross-width double berth. Additional storage is available beneath the seating, along with a corner cupboard housing the fridge battery. Opposite, a multifuel stove set on a tiled hearth provides warmth and a cosy focal point.

Bathroom

Found aft, the bathroom is fitted with a hand basin with hot and cold taps and a cassette toilet. There is also potential for conversion into a wet room, if desired.
