Inside i would say is 90% complete - all engine / electrics / lights / bow thruster / anchor winless are fully working
This is a Proper Strong boat NOT a Light Weight Cannal Boat and will fit through most of the French Bridges - if she is well blasted allowing access to the Med - see some of lower pictures showing my measuring stick against height of wheel house She Will NOT go through the Low Bridges - The Air Draft is 3.3m or 11ft 6in
you need a very low head room cruiser or canal boat for them so this boat is NO good for you .
The finishing needed. would be the plumbing / fitting of Heater and some wood work allowing you to customise it to your needs. A lot of the materials needed are included in the Price !
I have NO Plans or drawings - please come and View what you see is what you get . I just fitted it out the way I wanted as we went along in a sensible and practical way.
She is as described and is As seen in the Photos .
This Boat Caught your Attention because - It is a fine Solid looking boat, that simply needs Completing .
It has been constructed to the Higher cat B not the Lower C most Barges are Built To - under the self build certification for Coastal / Offshore use using the finest New Materials and Branded Names . It has been inspected by a marine surveyor ( S Roberts Marine Liverpool )during construction and passed a seaworthyness test to be allowd to use the Mersey Docks System when she was launched.
All The Storage Tanks Fresh Water / Waste Water / Fuel are in and Pressure Tested and fully working

I can Complete this boat to your requirements at an extra cost.
How much will it cost ? How Many Gold Taps do you want ? Stainless Steel Cooker ? Water Bed ? How deep are your Pockets - only you know that ? But £15 to £20k should polish her off nicely! so fully finished she will stand you max £120k a very Cheap Quaility Boat. If you can find any thing to compare at my price please let me know or better still buy it stright away
I have had chance to list what I now think the boat will cost to
complete as follows
# 2 all singing and dancing macerator toilets £550 each £1100
# Odd plumbing connections and pipe say £1500
# A Plumber to fit all Say 2 weeks @ £1000 = £2000
# A Joiner 4 weeks @ £500 = £2000
# Timber to Make doors and moldings say £1000
# A Electrician to add extra bits were needed say £500
# Any electrical bits say £1500
# Upholstery to seats and Mattress For Beds say £1000
# Cooker / Fridge / Washing Machine microwave £1500
# fully carpet the Boat £1000
# £2000 for a 5 day Holliday in Dubai ????
# add another £5000 for any thing we may have misst !!!
Total £20,100
I personal think I have loaded the prices a bit on some things
like plumbing bits so any extra can be put into things we have mist ??
So if you really wanted to go for it without being silly the most
I would have thought it would cost is £20,000
So she would stand you under £120 ,000 in total
She IS FULLY OPERATIONAL sea worthy now and can go to sea as she is now.
Below are pictures of the boat it was taken out the water on the 25th June 2010 Re Anti Fouled and New Anodes Fitted She is in perfect condition .
We then took her out on the River Mersey for 3 hrs - A Dream she was !!!!
