Description

Radinka, a lovely narrow boat, has been the comfortable home of its previous owners for over six years. However, due to their deep sentimental attachment and their increasing love for canal life, they have made the decision to pass on their floating abode to new owners. They have recently upgraded to a wide-beam boat, prompting the sale of Radinka.

This fully equipped vessel is designed to serve as an ideal live-aboard home. Sold as seen, Radinka includes all fittings and fixtures. It is important to note that the sale does not include a mooring.

Key features and information about Radinka include:

• Electrical systems comprising 12v and 240v with a 2kw inverter.
• Recently fitted with four 12v 110ah batteries (three leisure and one starter) during the summer.
• Equipped with a 240v landline connection.
• Features a Canalline 38 engine, which was newly installed in 2013.
• The hull received fresh blacking in August and remains in excellent condition. Photos taken at Cow Roast dry dock are available to demonstrate its solidity, which may potentially eliminate the need for a survey, subject to the buyer’s discretion.
• Possesses a valid boat safety certificate.
• The interior boasts beautiful varnished wood throughout.
• Fitted kitchen complete with a fridge and cooker.
• A fully fitted bathroom offers amenities such as a shower, small bath, wash basin, and Vanette cassette toilet.
• Sleeping arrangements can accommodate up to four individuals, with a double bedroom and an ‘L shaped’ dinette that converts into a small double bed.
• The front cratch cover creates a useful porch area. Please be aware that the current cratch cover requires some repairs, but it remains usable.
• The solid fuel burner was removed during the summer due to wear and tear. However, the fireplace and chimney hole are still intact, allowing for easy installation of a burner of your choice upon purchase.

If you require a diagram illustrating Radinka’s interior layout, the sellers are happy to provide one. However, to truly appreciate the boat’s potential, it is recommended to schedule a viewing.

Radinka is currently located on The Grand Union Canal near Tring Reservoirs. Conveniently, it is only a 40-minute train journey from London to Tring, followed by a short five-minute taxi ride to the boat.
