50ft Les Allen Semi Trad Narrowboat (London)

Cattle & Cane is a 50ft 1980 narrowboat by Les Allen, with a wooden cabin on a steel hull. It's well equipped as a liveaboard, and there are plenty of included extras. The hull was surveyed 9 months ago, and has had a new baseplate and two patches at some point, but is now good and thick everywhere. The wooden cabin could use some paint now the sun is out, but is watertight and sealed with fibreglass tape. The Lister engine is every bit as loud and smoky and reliable as it was when new, and starts every time.

The batteries were recently upgraded, there are 500w of solar panels to keep them charged, and inside there's a recent cooker/oven, an efficient 12v Fridge, and a twin tub washing machine. There are 12v and USB charging sockets, and 240v via a 1100w inverter, as well as plenty of storage everywhere because I'm a hoarder.BSS September 2015Hull survey, blacking and new rudder July 2016 (receipts available)Engine : Lister SR3 with LH150 hydraulic gearboxTwin water tanks: 250+350=600 litreIndesit domestic gas cooker (2016)LEC (Shoreline) 12v Fridge Morco instant gas water heater Boatman multifuel stove (2014)Thetford electric cassette toilet & 2x spare cassettesShower. 500w solar panels on roof storage boxes, with 40a Tracer MPPT controller440ah Trojan T105 leisure batteries (2016) + 110ah Starter (2015)Ring 1100w inverter 12v & 240v sockets throughout.
