‘Tranq’ille’ is a rare Sea Otter 21’ Narrowboat, believed to be one of only three of this model ever built. Benefiting from a road trailer, this compact and versatile Narrowboat offers the unique opportunity to explore the UK’s extensive canal and river network, with the flexibility to trailer the boat to different cruising destinations. Designed with a reverse layout, the accommodation begins with a well-equipped galley to port, with a wet-room style bathroom opposite, complete with cassette toilet. Continuing through to the saloon, there are comfortable port and starboard settees which can be converted to create a full-width double berth, providing practical overnight accommodation. Propulsion is provided by a Nanni 10hp two-cylinder diesel engine. Cabin heating is supplied by a Trumatic blown-air heating system, with warm-air ducts providing heat throughout the cabin. Hot water is supplied via the engine calorifier, with a 240V immersion heater also available when connected to shore power. The boat benefits from both 12V and 240V electrical systems. Reduced maintenance and easy to handle, ‘Tranq’ille’ would make an ideal first boat for those looking to enjoy day trips, weekends away and canal cruising without the size and complexity of a larger Narrowboat. Its compact dimensions, road trailer and renowned Sea Otter aluminium construction make it a particularly versatile choice for exploring the inland waterways. Available to view at Pyrford Marina.
