Description

Poppy is a well-presented 40ft semi-traditional narrowboat, built in 1998 by the highly regarded Liverpool Boats, known for their quality and craftsmanship. Currently moored on the Norfolk Broads (NR12), the vessel is offered with the option to take over the existing mooring plot (subject to agreement), providing a rare opportunity to secure a desirable waterside location. The mooring is rented annually (April–March), with the most recent fee being £2,600. Finished in classic traditional colours, “Poppy” is a charming and practical vessel, ready for immediate use and enjoyment for the upcoming boating season. The accommodation comfortably sleeps four, with a fore cabin berth for two and an additional double berth provided by a convertible sofa bed in the saloon. The layout includes a centrally located WC/shower compartment and a well-equipped galley. The boat benefits from a reliable AC/DC electrical system, including twin 12V 125Ah batteries (one leisure and one starter), supported by three 100W solar panels for efficient off-grid capability. Hot water is supplied via the engine or a 230V 1kW calorifier, servicing the galley, WC, and shower. A large freshwater tank is located in the bow, with delivery via a DC pump. Space heating is provided by a modern wood-burning stove, complemented by a Webasto diesel heater feeding two radiators, ensuring comfort throughout the year. Powered by an economical inboard Beta 28 three-cylinder diesel engine, “Poppy” offers dependable and efficient cruising. The mooring plot itself is a particular highlight, positioned waterside with picturesque river views and abundant wildlife. The plot includes a picnic table, with water and electrical connections conveniently located approximately five metres away. There’s an inventory of items that go with the boat, crockery and pans, plates etc. Also its worth noting that the mooring comes with mains electric and the water point is only 5 metres away. The boat is ready to move onboard straight away and is ready to cruise with no work required.
