Vetus Engine converted from raw water cooling to hull cooling in 2012. So no river water coming in, no secondary filtration problems. Cooled, as most narrowboats are, by a skin tank.
Vetus bow thruster. Very useful in a light boat when turning against the wind.

Broker's Comments
First of all, for full disclosure as owner of Boatshed Grand Union, this is my own boat.
Sea Otters are fabulous boats to own. They are beautifully built and fitted. Because they are aluminium they are light and very low maintenance - no rust. Because they are water ballasted, the short ones, like this, can be moved around on a boat trailer.(I have heard of a couple who tow theirs around from canal to canal, using it as a caravan on the way!)
This boat has been a joy to us on the Wey and on the Thames. She fits into the smallest of moorings, but has coped with the largest of rivers - the tidal Thames. She is now looking for a new owner who will enjoy her as much as we have.
Selling because we have a large boat that takes all our attention.
These boat details are subject to contract.
