Summary

Built by Dartline Boats at Bunbury Locks. The boat unusually has six berths comprising 2 singles and 2 made-up doubles providing adequate accommodation for larger families looking for a holiday boat. The layout would also lend itself to some rearrangement to better suit someone in need of less beds. The reverse layout starts from the back with steps leading into the galley with cooker, full-sized fridge and plenty of cupboard space. This opens out into a Pullman dinette which converts easily into a double bed.  A doorway leads to a cabin containing two single berths with full height wardrobe and hanging space. A further doorway leads to the corridor past the separate bathroom with bath & shower, Mansfield Traveller toilet and vanity unit with inset basin. The corridor leads into the saloon with L-shaped settee which converts into the second double. Steps lead up through the hardwood double doors with corner unit on one side and tiled hearth with Morso Squirrel stove on the other. The boat has ample storage with a number of full height hanging areas. Technically the boat is well equipped with inverter, battery charger, landline with galvanic isolator and holding tank level gauge. The boat has 12V & 230V sockets throughout, and central heating adn hot water are supplied by an Alde gas boiler. Power is provided by a Perkins 42hp engine with hydraulic gearbox and Centaflex coupling.  The boat is being sold fully equipped with all bedding, crockery, cutlery etc and is ready to cruise. Internally the boat is in good condition with recently recovered soft furnishings, although a bit of tidying would enhance the interior.
