Tarka Tales is a beautifully presented 57ft Semi-Traditional narrowboat, built in 2019 by the highly regarded Northwich Boat Company. She features the ever-popular reverse layout, with a well-appointed galley at the stern, making her both
practical and sociable in design.
The boat was recently blacked in April 2025 with a durable two-pack epoxy coating, ensuring excellent protection for years to come. She is powered by a reliable Canaline 38 diesel engine with just 670 engine hours, offering plenty of life
and performance for future cruising.
Thoughtfully equipped, Tarka Tales is well suited for both comfortable liveaboard use and extended cruising on the canal
and river network.
