Well this is our last Friday in the caravan as next Friday will be our first night on our boat yea , boat was sign written yesterday by rob naghi at cherilton narrowboats where it has been fitted out and painted by cherilton narrowboats ak graham ford to say I am made up with the fit out paint job and sing writing is a massive under statement

Very nice can't beat all portholes enjoy

Have a steripen traveler uv water purifier just make a couple of ltrs a day takes 5 minuets

Stern gland remember to grease it after every journey happy boating

Pete this the best picture I can find of mine they have two catches but they might be the same catch as yours , try procast if you get no joy off Tyler Wilson

Pete Kendal is a Tyler Wilson shell give them a ring I am sure he will tell you as I am sure Kendal went to Cumbria narrow boats with them fitted hope this helps

Thanks Pete that's nice coming from a owner of a stunning boat, we went for the quartz tops as they are low maintenance as we had solid wood work tops in our house and it was a on going thing to keep the looking good , the port holes are very nice we went to procast to look at them and Brian the owner showed us how they are made ( cast ) and when you see the work involved they don't seem that expensive , I have had some port hole liners made of brass then chromed by the same company ( Nottingham platers ) who procast use and they look stunning can't wait to see them fitted , when I am on my way up north I will call in and see you if that's ok as I would love to see your boat

Sent my application in for new boat licence on the 28th August received text to say application had been accepted on the 30th received licence on the 1st September how's that for a service well done C&RT

Hi Pete yes glass lifts out when open, here's a few of the interior not quiet finished

Fell in love with your boat the first time I saw her Pete as it was very close to how I would paint mine if I had one, wait till you see the port holes same as yours I think ( mine are procast ) every thing is chrome, yes the next 16 days are getting to us now , but after 2 years it can't come quick enough now ,

Not quite finished just 17 days to launch can't wait

The blue plastic is just the tap the actual drain valve is metal the drain valve on the racor looks like it is plastic , does the racor conforms to ISO 10080 ? and meets the BSS 2.12.3/R requirements ?

Does it conforms to ISO 10088 and meets the BSS 2.12.3/R requirements ? Looking at it I would say no as it has a plastic drain of screw just my thoughts might be wrong

Fuel guard on both tanks same engine as Neil Barrus shire 45 fuel guard meet all the safety regs and has a life time element
