Wow, thanks for the information, very informative. Yes, the draft thing maybe an issue. Looking at a Northwich trader and can't seem to find a definitive regarding the draft etc... but loving the vintage engines, I'm pretty mechanical & electrical so see it as an additional thing for me to enjoy. Many thanks for your response, its appreciated 🙏

Hi all What's the K2 like for day to day running? Noise? Maintenance & ease of service etc.... TIA

Sorry, a typo meant 70' lol

Hi, I am looking at 79' boats, but keep seeing the same 62' ones on sale for ages , any reason? O is it the fact if your going over 57' you may as well go full fat 70'?

Thanks all, I've seen a few now, the cabin size is important to me, so I'll do some more looking and comparisons. Just engine what's/ifs now to decide on. Thanks all.

That's good advice, thank you.

Makes sense really. Thanks Good to know, thanyou, something to consider 👍🏻

Thanks for the reply. I'm thinking the same. I want to cruise, the 65' plus seems to suit my needs really. If I can't get somewhere, I'll moor as close as possible and then explore.

Hi I'm looking for a tug style traditional narrowboat of 57' above possibly a 70' with back cabin, engine room etc... looking to be based on the Worcs & Birmingham. The 70' boats tend to be slightly cheaper than the 60/65's. I'm not worried about the restrictions up north, as long as I can plod most places, like Shropshire/Llangollen I'll be happy. What's the Tardebigge flight like in a 70'? Also I'm quite good with electrics and pretty mechanical, but if bought a boat with a vintage engine, who's the people to call/take with me to just make sure the engine is sound? Sorry for all the questions and TIA.
