Narrow boat BUDLEIGH

Kilworh Boatbuilders have previously built boats for private syndicates. This new build will commence in the autumn for the boat to be ready mid 2010. We are members of the BMF and CBA and produce quality craft.

This new build is well under construction and will be exhibited at the May Bank Holiday 2010 Crick Boat Show when it will be handed over to the private syndicate. Some shares are still available to secure at 1/7th equitable share in this superb boat. The main bedroom features a full size double bed and overnight guests could be accommodated in the saloon area..

The photographs on this page are for a build we recently completed for a customer and it is anticipated that this build will be similar in design. It is a 'reverse' layout with the galley at the stern - then the saloon area and a 'walk-thru' bathroom with quadrant shower leading onto the fixed double bed at the bow. Services include central heating, mains 240volt combi inverter, cassette toilet, 12 volt fridge, gas cooker, pull-out 4ft 6" bed. The fit-out is on a 'Reeves Hull' which are highly regarded in the narrow boat industry. This boat is also featured in the Canal Boat magazine August 2009 edition 'boats at the Crick Show'. We have plenty of experience in helping a group of co-owners to set up a syndicate and can assist in recommending how best to run the affairs.
