Description
It Is What It Is - affectionately known as IIWII or “Eewee” - is a beautifully appointed 60ft x 10ft widebeam canal boat offering the perfect blend of cruising potential and modern liveaboard comfort. Built in 2012 by the respected Collingwood Boat Builders, this spacious cruiser stern widebeam has spent over four years navigating the waterways, from Harlow and London to Watford and up to its current mooring at the stunning Shakespeare Marina.
Ideal for both full-time residential use and adventurous leisure cruising, this boat is now looking for new owners to embark on their next chapter.
Stepping aboard, you'll find a thoughtfully laid-out interior designed for comfort and practicality.
The fully equipped galley boasts oak countertops, a full-size fridge/freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, and a 4-ring gas hob with oven. Storage is plentiful, making it an excellent space for preparing meals onboard. The breakfast-bar style dining area comes complete with two tall chairs and two additional bar stools neatly tucked away, perfect for casual dining or working from the water.
The lounge offers a generous open-plan layout with plenty of room for sofas, armchairs, or a projector setup. It is currently carpeted, creating a warm and homely space to relax and unwind.
The spacious bathroom features a full-size bath with shower overhead, a compost toilet (Strumpet and Trollope), sink, large heated towel rail, and additional storage. A clever over-bath clothes airer adds practicality to the space.
The master bedroom includes a centrally positioned king-size bed with space around it for a desk, chest of drawers, and an open wardrobe area, allowing for flexible use of the space to suit your lifestyle.
Whether you're dreaming of a life afloat or looking for a spacious and stylish cruiser with all the comforts of home, It Is What It Is represents a rare opportunity.
Please note: This vessel is not CE marked under current Recreational Craft Regulations. Buyers are advised to seek independent advice regarding any potential implications. The boat will also require blacking in the near future.
