Storm Child is a charming 40ft Narrowboat, built in 2000 by John White Boat Builders and fitted out by Jack Snowden Builders. Offering a practical and comfortable layout, she is ideally suited to leisurely cruising, weekend escapes and extended holidays afloat. The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged, with a fixed double berth within the aft master cabin, followed by a bathroom complete with a Thetford cassette toilet.

Here, the port-side bench seating can be converted to provide a further double berth, allowing Storm Child to comfortably accommodate up to four people. Propulsion is provided by a Thornycroft 25hp three-cylinder diesel engine, while onboard heating is provided by a diesel-fired central heating system. Hot water is supplied via the engine calorifier and central heating system. Storm Child benefits from both 12V and 240V electrical systems, providing the convenience and flexibility expected for comfortable life afloat. A delightful Narrowboat with four comfortable berths, Storm Child offers an appealing opportunity for anyone looking to enjoy relaxed cruising, family adventures or their first step into life on the waterways.
