Description
OFFERS INVITED BEFORE 14/11/16 – “RUSLAND BEECHES” 45FT NARROWBOAT PROJECT.Sale on behalf of Finance Company. This is a 1999 South West Durham Steelcraft 45ft Narrowboat of popular design used by the Canaltime Fleet. Original Spec. of steel was 10mm / 6mmm / 4mm. Fitted with Beta 4cyl diesel and PRM 120 gearbox (not running at present) Used as a Live-aboard vessel in its latter years, maintenance of this vessel has sadly lapsed. There are missing cushions & mattress (as per pictures).All other items included cannot be assumed to work until tested by new owner. Engine hours are recorded on the taco as over 8,400 and prior knowledge of this vessel is that it has suffered from contaminated fuel and does not turn over. The starter motor has previously been reconditioned (years ago) but now the engine seems to be seized. No further information can be given on this matter. The hull was last backed, on our records, in 2012 and no further record of the boat being out of the water exists. The boat has been here with us in this marina since 23 Oct 2007. There is at least one working 12v battery fitted. A Full PVC cockpit canopy is fitted and in good state of repair, this has helped keep rear deck and interior of vessel free from any rot. The vessel is single-glazed with an oak/ash fit out and has accompanying hardwood doors & fittings throughout the cabin length. Much of the wood has suffered staining from dampness (condensation/lack of ventilation we suspect) but this could be salvaged with some basic renovation techniques. The cabin also has an array of 12v light fittings many of which do work. Rear Saloon has seating with a double bed option. Galley is horse-shoe shaped and features Sink/Drainer, Full size LPG over/hob and storage, with Microwave shelf. Mid ships bathroom has a Traveller (dump through) pump-out toilet, vanity sink and hip bath/shower over. Forward bedroom has side doors to Port and full width forward bed offering a large sleeping area, this is the feature that made this design of boat so comfortable & popular. Cabin is heated & hot water / radiators are via Webasto type system and heat exchange from engine. The heating system is not working at present due to a faulty unit. Paintwork is in poor condition. There is No BSSC or License. This is NOT a project for the inexperienced, but does offer the potential buyer to donate his/her time in return for a possible increase in the vessel value.
