Beautiful boat. Great workmanship. 10 out of 10

Nice pilot house! Sure beats standing in the weather(rain, sleet, snow) holding a stick. Wide bodies are so much more livable.

Wide beams do not fit all the canal systems so a major drawback I’m afraid!

Incinerator toilets are fairly common on Fishing vessels.

An incinerating toilet! First I've seen on any narrowboat-type craft. I know they are expensive, but the convenience! Plus, truly upscale.

Spot on Dave how the hell did he think he would get away with that, obviously not a beater or he would know can only be used in the North or South not all

Why don't these boats have a 'murphy bed' ?

Yep this would get stuck even in the newly widened Hurlston lock on the Llangollen canal truly a boat to be restricted to double width locks only. 😥

An amazing widebeam and by far the NICEST that i have seen on KZfaq and even though i liveaboard a narrowboat my fiancè he won't permit me to feel at home aboard or personalise his nb to make it truly home

Great boat would love this one

Amazing ❤️ 😊

Nice boat but certainly too wide with a beam of 10 feet to be able to navigate all the canals in the UK. That is unless along with the bow thrusters she has a hover mode!

Wide beams are so much more livable ;IMO. Surprised I don't see more bow thrusters since under power crafts for any current turns.

widebeams cannot access all canals in the UK

No it's not a lot of the canals will only take a narrow boat.

And you can't claim VAT back on this boat even if it's your primary residence. The vat exemption rules for boats are quite complex but I'm sure a 10ft widebeam doesn't comply.

I really like that boat

Wonderfull 👍

Fantastic video

Nice video, so can i assume that with a 10 wide boat you can travel up North? As there is a North South divide where you can't take a wide boat up North so i am told? The other option is to get a narrow boat, but i would like to get something a little wider.

Shoes inside?

Nice

Like multi heater centered more efficient..

The thing about wide beams is that they are in practice gentrifying the waterways system. When the canal system was saved from closure in the 60s there were next to no broad beams anywhere on the system, and those people who had leisure boats were all narrow (to the extent that many live aboards used old converted working narrowboats. These old timers valued the industrial history and the heritage of the working boat families just as much as they did the scenery and the closeness to nature. Up to the 90s it was the norm for people to buy a "shell" and spend a year or so fitting the boat out. The canals were a place primarily for working class, ordinary people to follow an interest that was affordable. Now we have wide beam boats that cost more than narrowboats - that are bought by people with the wealth to pay others to fit them out (and presumably maintain and dry dock them too) - and most importantly want to be on the water for "life style" choices. Whilst there's no compunction for people to have any connection or interest in the community they are joining - imo (after almost 30 years afloat) the superficial nature of most wide beam live aboards lessens our community. If you want to experience the inland waterways properly, take as much interest in the history of the system and the lives of those who worked it - and that can't properly be done on a boat that can only visit a third of the system. Just my opinion.

Could these be pushed by an electric motor with a battery bank, mucho solar cells and a quiet genset backup ?

Would like to see more white beans new high-class punch and prices

Incinerator toilet, fantastic.

It's for sale again if anyone is interested

It amazes me what they say you can claim the VAT back I have friends who have purchased boats as live aboard s and it's near impossible to claim your vat back it all spans from a old maritime rule

No one has mentioned the price

Do we have the price of this beautiful boat please? Thanks.

How much is that boat?

who is the builder.....

Why isn’t the steering in the front?

Do you build these with solar/Electric motors for quiet , ecosystem operation with enough solar to power the boat?

The tv should b in the other side,left side....For me. Makes the boat lunch biger. For me......

shame it's carpeted instead of hardwood. carpeting is gross.

at 60ft she wont fit in quite a few of the locks, looks ok but!

All the canals in the UK?

Do all narrow boats have a steal hull. Sides included. Couldn't you use wood for the side's, and make it lighter. There's so many wood preservatives. It would never rot 👍❗ Just asking. Detroit, Mich. USA.

What was the selling price?

Why, why, WHY do the designers insist on putting the sink and stove on opposite sides of the galley! So impractical when it comes to straining vegetables etc. Would be a deal-breaker for me.

How much do they cost

Do any Americans ever buy your boats to live on the UK canals?

Why do you refer to a hunk of fabricated wood & metal as `She’, Is that for effect? What if `the boat` wanted to identify as a tray of fish n chips or a shopping trolly. Can we instead please refer to the boat as a Pot Noodle (curry flavour) please?

Where is the link to Bentons?

odd filming. you film the kitchen from the sitting room area and simply talk about the kitchen and the freezer being near the bar stools then you don't actually film around the bathroom or the bedroom with the cameraman filming the tour guide and not the bedroom itself. looks a pleasant enough boat but not showing things because the cameraman is shy is not doing anyone any favours.

Why does this feel like this was made in the 1980's

Dear gentlemen who make these house boats, because they only make one bedroom? And so much field that make n l dining room and living room, with that wasted space dig a small bedroom

hu built this boat

Always shocked at how much space is waster on Wide beams, it's like the designer just gave up? those square corners in the kitchen ? I don't think so. ONE bedroom ? LOL poor design, sorry
