Diesel engines don't have to be noisy. 🙉🔊
Combining a quality Beta Marine engine with a hospital silencer, and some sound deadening (as is standard in our builds), makes a huge difference to a quieter, and more pleasant, cruising experience. 😉

Shared Ownership Scheme Update.🔉📢📣

Built by us in 2024 Aqua Spirit is entering service in the Shared Ownership Scheme.

The Scheme is a great, cost effective way to get into boat ownership, and a perfect stepping stone into individual ownership.

They'll be 10 shares, 4 of which are already sold, providing 5 weeks on board per year.

Each share is £13,500.00, with a monthly running cost £175.00 per share for 2027.

After lots of feedback from previous folk interested, Aqua Narrowboats will now be managing the scheme. 👌🏼

Remember this is not time share, shared owners will own the freehold title in the boat. Owners can sell their share at any point in the future.

58ft Built by Aqua Narrowboats in 2024.

Lovely morning at Wychnor Lock, who'd have thought that last night there was a disco in the sky 🌩 ⛈️ 🌧

A great bonus of being back on the water here at our new home of Stenson Marina, is that our boat owners can pop in and see us.

It was lovely to catch up with Monika & Edwin and hear about their adventures this year on board No.58 Thistledown. This included cruising the vast Tidal Trent - and they sent us this great video of them coming out of Keadby Lock (near Scunthorpe) 👌🏻😲

They also kindly baked us some Swiss 'Spitzbueb' biscuits - meaning Rascal Biscuits - very similar to Jammy Dodgers, but these were much tastier and baked on board! 😋Thank you so much, they soon vanished! 😉

(photo of biscuits in comments, as we can't add photos and video in the same post🤷🏻‍♂️)
