Description
A 70ft portholed traditional narrowboat built in 1992 by Roger Fuller of Five Towns Boatbuilding. Roger Fuller is regarded by many as one of the finest builders of his era. "Arabia" was originally powered by a Kelvin J3; having purchased the boat in 2010, the previous owner installed a factory fully restored Russell Newbery DM2 in 2016 and continued an exhaustive programme of refurbishment including some minor refitting, maintenance and a complete re-paint of the hull (Epoxy) and superstructure. Excellent full "out of water" insurance survey Nov 2021 : Boat Safety Certificate to Sept 2029. With the ever increasing cost of materials these characterful, bespoke narrowboats of such quality and fine steelwork are increasingly sought after as they are rarely built today.

Contact:Tollhouse Boat Sales

A fine 70ft traditional narrowboat, the hull being originally comissioned by the owners of Merlin Narrowboats (Braunston) in 2005 and fitted by themselves to an exacting standard for their own use as a comfortable liveaboard. The Gardner 2LW engine is one of approximately 30 built by Gardner throughout the 1990s and was removed from their previous boat and installed in the dedicated engine room. "Caliburnum" features many extras rarely found on boats built today - the hull, for example, has a chined 15mm baseplate making for better handling and easier mooring on the shallower canals. The current owner has fastidiously maintained the boat in excellent condition including a full professional repaint by Andy Russell and now presents her for sale in fine condition even including a full tank of diesel.
