33ft Narrowboat Project'Caitlin Joy'Here we have 'Caitlin Joy' a 33ft Narrowboat, late 1990's built by Springer and sold as a project boat. I have owned this boat for the last 3 years and unfortunately not had the time to do it justice. I'm now changing jobs which unfortunately forces this reluctant sale. This will make a great summer project for the aspiring narrowboater, with the work required not particularly extensive. The boat is currently moored on the Leeds & Liverpool canal in Bunley, Lancashire. This is a lovely little narrowboat that with some attention has the potential to be a fantastic boat. Engine Bay:

The boat will be sold without a current river/canal licence. As a project the boat is sold without a current BSS certificate. The hull was blacked by myself in May 2013. A mooring may be available at the current location subject to the buyer discussing this with the mooring owner. Otherwise the buyer is responsible for removal. The boat is also advertised elsewhere so I reserve the right to end the auction early. The boat is sold as seen and cash on collection only please. Please feel free to contact me if you would like any further information on the boat or to arrange a viewing. Evening weekday viewings only. Thanks for looking. Contact: 07988958102

The boat has a separate bedroom area at the front. I haven't uploaded a close up, but it can be seen in the image taken from the back looking into the cabin. If you would like a closer look, message me and I will send you one directly. The boat has all relevant electrics, but no inverter. 12v only. The engine is mechanically sound and runs well. As a Vetus it's quite a modern unit.
