[Cost of moving a boat by road to Scotland?]

Hello. Anybody any rough ideas on how much it would cost to shift a boat by road from Lancaster to Scotland? (Caladnian Canal, so probably put in at SeaPort Marina in Inverness). Just number crunching at the mo to see if we have the pennies, we're wanting to live aboard full-time eventually but there dosen't seem to be any narrowboats for sale up here nevermind any brokers. Cheers for any responses

 

 

Give Steve Holding @ Diamond H Transport a ring 01942 717733............www.diamondh.co.uk..... they have all the equipment.

[Any boat transport recommendations?]

Did you try Tuckey?

They seem to have a good reputation. I know several boaters who have used them, as indeed have I, (but only for craneage).

[12volt or 24]

When specifying a new boat what are the advantages, if any, of opting for a 24 volt system as opposed to the normal 12 volt setup. Would it make life any easier on a liveaboard and if so why?

Very nearly..

 

we have installed a heritage Uno... as we dont like gas...

 

if you want to discuss PM me... response times will vary..

 

there are some other considerations to bear in mind, but all things considered we think its v good

Just in the planning stage of having a 57' new build built as a liveaboard. Can anyone advise on oil fired range type cooker/boilers. Am considering a Heritage Uno leaving my boat gas free. Any previous experience would be appreciated.
