Otto - Sold

Moored within the peaceful surroundings of Roydon Marina Village, Otto is a 57ft traditional stern narrowboat built in 2001 by Evans & Sons. With her elegant lines and timeless design, she offers both comfort and craftsmanship, making her an ideal choice for leisurely cruising, life afloat, or continuous cruising along the waterways. Freshly blacked in July 2025 and powered by a dependable Beta Marine 38hp engine, Otto is well-prepared for her next adventure.

Step inside and you’re welcomed by a beautifully arranged galley, where oak work surfaces bring a touch of warmth and character. A Swan retro-style 12V fridge/freezer sits alongside a gas oven and 4-ring hob, providing everything needed for home cooking on the water. A clever fold-out dining table creates space for shared meals or quiet mornings with coffee, all surrounded by ample storage from under-counter cupboards and open shelving.

The lounge is a true retreat, offering a sofa bed, wall-mounted 12V smart TV, and a 5.5kW multi-fuel stove that becomes the heart of the boat on cooler evenings. With over six feet of headroom throughout, Otto feels light, spacious, and welcoming.

Towards the stern, the bedroom provides a restful escape with a fixed double bed, shelving above, under-bed storage, and practical hanging space for clothes. A large cupboard with drawers ensures there’s plenty of room for belongings. The bathroom continues the theme of comfort and convenience, fitted with a vanity sink, pump-out toilet, and a generously sized shower. Along the corridor, thoughtful bookshelves and storage nooks add both charm and practicality.

Beneath her characterful interior lies a robust power system, featuring four T-105 Trojan deep cycle batteries and a Mastervolt Mass Combi 2.5kW inverter, alongside shoreline hookup and 240V sockets throughout. These features make Otto exceptionally well-suited for both weekend escapes, long-term marina living, and continuous cruising.

Lovingly maintained and full of character, Otto is more than just a boat—she is a welcoming home on the water, ready for wherever the journey may lead.
