Description

Puffin is a delightful 30ft cruiser stern narrowboat and a beautiful example of the much sought-after Aintree Beetle. Compact, charming, and full of character, she offers everything you need for comfortable and enjoyable cruising. Built and fitted out by Aintree Boats in 2018, this lovely craft combines clever design with quality workmanship, making her the perfect choice for weekend getaways, short breaks, or leisurely adventures along the waterways.

Stepping aboard, you’re welcomed into a bright and versatile saloon. Two comfortable bench seats offer a relaxing space to unwind and can be easily converted into a cosy double bed when needed. The saloon is fitted with 12V and 240V sockets, providing flexibility for all your power needs. This adaptable area can serve as either the main lounge or the bedroom, depending on your preferred layout, giving you complete freedom to make the space your own.

The galley is well-equipped for life on the water, featuring a Shoreline fridge with freezer box, a Thetford oven and hob, and a selection of 12V, 240V, and USB sockets for convenience. Compact yet functional, it provides all the essentials for preparing meals in comfort.

Moving through the boat, you’ll find a neat and practical bathroom, fitted with a cassette toilet, shower unit, and heated towel rail – a luxurious touch that ensures warmth and comfort even on cooler days.

At the bow, the L-shaped seating area offers another space that can be converted into a double bed. With storage beneath the seats and a hanging space for clothing, it’s both practical and inviting. Like the saloon, this area can serve as either a bedroom or a cosy nook for reading and relaxing, adding to the boat’s impressive versatility.

Powered by a reliable Beta Marine 20HP engine, Puffin handles beautifully and is easy to navigate, making her ideal for both new boaters and experienced cruisers alike.

Overall, Puffin is a charming and well-cared-for narrowboat that perfectly captures the spirit of the waterways. With her clever use of space, quality finish, and thoughtful layout, she offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the simple pleasures of boating life.
