Successfully selling boats since 1995, ABNB's constant aim is to provide the standard of service of yesteryear which is so often missing in today's self-centered hectic lifestyle and our commitment to providing a friendly, professional service is second to none.

Our collective boating experience encompasses all aspects of the cut and it is difficult to envisage an area of the canal world in which we wouldn't be able to offer you constructive advice and support, be it realising your dream or hanging up your windlasses.

ABNB started life as the brainchild of Andy Burnett whilst he was the Technical Editor of Waterways World, the popular magazine still at the forefront today. In the early 90's brokers would only sell boats that were taken to their sales base but many vendors were reluctant to abandon their pride and joy, even though they were selling. ABNB pioneered and perfected selling boats from their home moorings which enabled the vendors to participate in the sales process, an opportunity welcomed by many. As the business grew, Crick Wharf became the home of ABNB, enabling boats to also be sold from Crick.

ABNB moved to purpose built offices within North Kilworth Marina in 2021 providing a one-stop shop for buyers and sellers.

* Dedicated page on our website, www.abnb.co.uk

YIEWSLEY • 70ft 3in, Traditional, 2 + 1 Berth
Built by her first owner, a professional boat fitter, as shown by the level of quality and neat design ideas. She is set-up to cruise, with the beefy Lister JP3, boasting low engine hours since being rebuilt, matched to a hydraulic drive with Crowther Propeller to make the most of the power. There is also plenty of power in the hydraulic bow thruster that can be continuously operated, making manoeuvring easier than some shorter boats. An added bonus of the hydraulic drive is the higher headroom in the aft cabin as compared to shaft-driven systems, and this separate aft cabin is well away f... read more

Colecraft have been building steel narrowboats for nearly 50 years and have always been favoured by many professional boat fitters.

NINA • 44ft 11in, Semi-Trad, 2 + 2 Berth
If you can’t quite make up your mind which style of narrowboat shell, trad or semi-trad, would suit you best, well this boat could provide the perfect answer. Nina has a large sliding rear hatch which covers the semi-trad deck, allowing seating for the crew to accompany the steerer on sunny days, but when the weather is not at its best it can be closed leaving a small hatch for the helmsman. A cratchboard and cover has been removed as they were showing signs of age, but are available if required. Nina is based on a shell by R& D Fabrications and features their ‘slip... read more

HOLA • 29ft 5in, Traditional, 2 + 2 Berth
This 2005 traditional stern narrowboat features an uncomplicated layout and technical installation. The professional fit-out by Eastern Caravans is in light ash, and the combination of windows and portholes allows for a bright and open feel to the cabin interior. Hola would be an ideal starter boat or is equally suitable for someone who would like to downsize from a larger craft. By modern standards it could be said that this craft is a little basic, but there is everything on board that you will need to start your life afloat, including gas cooking, landline, cassette toilet, shower, p... read more
