"narrowboat "celtic" is a seventy ft traditonal BCN wooden narrowboat with a 1930's vintage lister CE engine, engine is in a generally good state of repair but needs a new water pump. boat has just been drydocked and needs significant work to the hull and top. the boat is currently used as a liveaboard and is fitted out as such, but has no running water.
the engine is a very rare vintage diesel and has been valued at around £3,000. please be aware however that the boat has significant leaks and needs constant upkeep. this boat would either suit an experienced boat dweller or somebody who is capable of getting into dock and replacing the planks/fixing the dry-rot!
this is a restoration project, boat sold as seen. currently moored near hilperton, trowbridge kennet on avon. visits recommended please phone 07796462667 after five"


I think a good question would be how close can you get with a chain saw and a cherry picker?
