All Traditional Narrow Boats for sale in the UK
A great boat for a traditionalist as it’s build is based on a solid Bantock design and it has the desirable Gardner 3LW engine. Fitted out several years ago the inside is functional but could benefit from upgrading. Fit out was set up for liveaboard and so features include good sized bedroom, washing machine and saloon with easy chairs and Refleks diesel stove.

St Crispin has been my home for more than 15 years. Life moves on and it is time to sell.
She is a quality 40ft Colecraft narrowboat from the mid-80s, well-built, and well-maintained in the time I’ve owned her.
She comes with a lovely mooring in Oxford, which is a rare find, and a great way to get a home on a boat in the city.
Residential moorings are not common in Oxford and this one is exceptional. It not only has all the facilities for live-aboard boaters (mailbox, piped water supply right by the boat, 240 electricity, refuse removal and sewage disposal) but it’s also deli...
