MORE DETAILS
BLANCHE 2 is a beautifully crafted 64ft traditional tug built by the renowned Stowe Hill Marine, offering timeless style, character and an enchanting presence on the inland waterways. Her classic dark green and red livery, brass portholes and traditional lines perfectly capture the romance of canal cruising, while the warm oak ply and Parana pine interior creates an inviting and comfortable living space.
Powered by the much admired Russell Newberry 30hp engine, BLANCHE 2 delivers wonderfully authentic cruising. Accommodation for six, a charming boatman’s cabin, practical galley, Eberspacher central heating and generous onboard storage make her equally suited to extended cruising or residential use. Freshly blacked in 2025, with new batteries fitted in 2026 and Boat Safety certification until 2028, BLANCHE 2 is a distinguished and captivating traditional narrowboat.
