12.5m cruising houseboat with transferable permanent residential mooring in Twickenham. Roomy saloon containing interior driving position, sofa and 2 height-adjustable captains stools bespoke master cabin with double bed and ensuite toilet and shower, galley refurbished to include fridge, freezer, dishwasher, grill and combination oven. Bathroom with another toilet and shower. Front bedroom with 2 single beds. Larger rear deck area with good size table and 4 chairs, along with a second outside area on the aluminium flybridge, where the outside driving position is. These areas are perfect for socialising whether moored or cruising. This boat has been as far as the Rhine and Rhone valleys. Its low draft and air draft allow it to cruise the European inland waterways. I have crossed the channel to cruise the inland waterways of France. Recently the hull has been professionally sandblasted to bare metal and fully coated, so it will not need doing again for many years. Last year I have water-proofed the flybridge so the boat has the strong bones of a brand-new boat. It would benefit from some interior refurbishment that I am currently doing, but after ten years aboard I have relocated so need to sell. Willing to take offers on the boat before I have finished with the refurbishment. Needs to be seen to be appreciated.
Powered by the "Rolls-Royce" of boat engines, it has a main engine Cummins 350 HP and also a wing engine by BMC which will get you home should anything happen the Cummins (it won't).
