Capercaillie

Experience luxury and quiet cruising aboard this splendid 60ft, reverse layout, electric narrowboat. Crafted in 2023 by Swan Boatbuilders for the Boatlife exhibition, Capercaillie is a contemporary boat which is beautifully styled inside and out.

The 10Kw Vetus electric propulsion system combined with fitted solar panels makes for sustainable living aboard as well the delight of exploring the waterways without the usual engine noise. The craft does have a generator (with hospital silencer) to charge the battery on the UK’s duller days. A bow thruster also makes this boat a delight to handle.

A beautifully equipped galley with granite worktops features a full-sized fridge and freezer, a combi oven, Smeg hob and boiling water tap as well as the essential wine cooler! The breakfast bar is a great space to dine or use as a desk area.

The open plan saloon boasts an attractive copper finished Refleks diesel stove, Smart TV and sofa bed. With a very generous 800L water tank, you can enjoy a leisurely shower in the spacious olive-green bathroom! As another nod to sustainable living, there is also a Compooster toilet. The delightful, enclosed bow bedroom has an impressive amount of wardrobe and under bed storage space.

One of the many aspects that make Capercaillie standout is her recently shot blasted & 2 pack Epoxy treated hull, which offers some of the best protection available for your investment.

Perfect for summer cruising or potentially as a live aboard, Capercaillie features a host of modern appliances, and its generous cruiser stern which is perfect space for entertaining aboard this head turning boat.
