Hi, and thanks for looking at my ad for this 45ft Narrowboat for sale on behalf of the owner.  She was built in 1989 by R&D and was recently re-fitted by the current owner to a modern and high standard and comes with a great specification.  If you look around you can see that the asking price of £29,950 is very reasonable for a boat of this standard with a mooring in this location and the owner will also consider reasonable offers; she is advertised for sale elsewhere.Come and have a look around her, she is a great boat with some great features, fantastic equipment and a bright and light interior.  You will not be disappointed.The mooring is fully transferable to the new owner and is in an ideal location in Egham / Old Windsor on the River Thames.  The town centre is only a short walk away and has a full range of banks, shops, launderette, pubs and restaurants.  It also boasts a mainline station running into London Waterloo including stops at Clapham Junction.  The boatyard is small and friendly and everyone is welcome and the boat can be viewed there.Built in 1989 by the very well regarded R&D
