peripatetic Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 Hi, New on here. I was shown an old post from 2020, it was the maker of the fibreline GPR narrowboats, asking if anyone knew of any still in existence. I own ZENA, and have done for 10 years. She's a beaut!! Anyone know of the chap who built the 7 back in 1997 I think. Any help gratefully appreciated. 😁🙌😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmr Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 Sounds familiar, are you a green boat on the K&A? I have seen one other, can't remember where but it might be Banbury. I think another was lost to fire a while ago? If you use the forum search facility (which is not much good) I think there are previous threads which just might include the bloke who built them (Probably the post you have found?)

peripatetic Posted June 21, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2023 (edited) Morning, Yes that's us. I've put the heading of the post in question in the search bar, but it comes up with nothing. Hoping I'll find it eventually. Thank you for getting back to me. 👍 Edited June 21, 2023 by peripatetic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then attach the smaller version to this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtB Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 Hmmmm I know of two fibreglass NBs. One is on the K&A and I saw it moored at Great Bedwyn a few weeks ago. The other was on the bank at Enslow on the southern Oxford for several years, after the owner fell in and died of Weils Disease. Maybe one of these is Zena.
