Narrowboat Alnwick

Alnwick is a modern butty built to provide hotel sleep-ing accommodation to the motor boat Morpeth. If sold on her own she offers a great opportunity for conversion to a live aboard - the task of al-tering some of the bedrooms into alternative living areas is not a huge challenge. The state-of-the-art Whispergen generator provides all heat-

ing and electrical needs.
