Narrowboat Legacy

This boat is of exceptional quality

and condition - it is of a standard
that only a few builders achieve
today. The shell is by Gary Gorton,
a builder known for his attention to
detail and elegant fine josher style
bows. The interior by Warwickshire
Narrowboats displays joinery of
the highest standard combining
a traditionally scumbled and
decorated boatman’s cabin and
engine room with a modern interior
carefully planned to maximise
storage. The specification is
spectacular - an impressive looking
and sounding Russell Newbery DM2
twin cylinder diesel, a Lister Petter
cocooned 4kVA diesel generator,
1.2kVA Victron inverter, Victron 3
stage marine charger, Mastervolt
transformer. Full size Bosch washing
machine, drier unit in dedicated
utility room, Webasto central
heating and boatman’s solid fuel
range. The boat was professionally
repainted in 2002 and the hull grit
blasted and treated with twin pack
epoxy coating.
