Water Sage – Re-Fitted 2024/25

This expertly refitted and beautifully presented narrowboat delivered for sale 2025.

The hull originally built 1985 by Rugby Boats was too good to resist when this newly formed Boat Building company found it. Completely stripped out, fully refitted and painted, this 59ft cruiser stern style narrowboat has been lovingly restored, modernised and brought firmly into the 21st century. A blend of classic British Steel and modern comfort.

The 2025 fit-out is light, high quality, and thoughtfully designed, featuring oak finishes, a new Beta Marine engine, Webasto central heating, and an elegant Percy Doughty stove. Ideal for extended cruising or maybe a liveaboard.

Equipped with a Victron 3Kw combi-inverter-charger and LED lighting throughout, it’s well equipped for life on the cut. For anyone seeking a stylish, turn-key boat with charm and reliability, this is a fantastic opportunity not to be missed.

If you would like further information on the boat or would like to book an appointment to view, please use the form below or call the office on 01270 525040.
