With one owner from new, Lady Violet has been in the family for over thirty years. She is a traditional narrowboat based on a shell from the canals most respected production builder. Berths are in three separate cabins, sleeping up to six people, making her ideal for boating with family and friends. Central heating is by gas boiler with additional warmth from the solid fuel stove in the saloon, along with the range in the Boatman's cabin. A magnificent Russell Newbery DM2 engine sits in it's own engine room and produces that mellow slow exhaust note which many boat owners can only dream of. All the normal home facilities are on board, with gas cooking, 12V fridge, shower and pump-out toilet. 230V power can be provided by the landline or the Sterling 1.6kW inverter. Alfresco dining can be arranged by utilising the drop-down table in the covered well deck.
