Hi Ya Matey
regretably I can't help wth the visit... All I can say is that is a lovely bit of kit...
In fact I think its superb and with that caravan of yours (do you call them caravans??)
it would make a great pair....
I have never seen anything like it... A very good friend of mine lives on a Narrowboat
but there is no way you could pull it out the water and htich it up...
Hope you get someone to have a look at it and it goes for a song... Good luck..
Will have to show Mrs B...

Thanks All!!
The vintage houseboats are great. Sadly survival rate is horrible. They are money pits as well. But Linda wants one and I'm good with that.
Here are a couple of pics of really cool houseboats but very few and far between.

We kept a house boat on Lake San Antonio here in Ca. for 23 years. The stories I could tell you growing up with the house boat.

Thanks!!!
Sadly with current bids and what it would cost to get to WA. it has gotten too spendy for me.
Since you are local and have the equipment to repair the hull, it would be a great project
Again Thanks!
