Sapphire

A 58ft 2006 Bluewater Boats 2 berth semi traditional stern narrowboat.

  • £65,000.00
  • 2 Berth

Sapphire is a 58ft semi-stern narrowboat, built in 2006 by the reputable Bluewater Boats and fitted out internally by Kingdom Boats. Designed with comfort and practicality in mind, she offers a well-balanced combination of traditional charm and modern convenience, making her an ideal choice for both leisure cruising and extended stays on the water.

This two-berth vessel is powered by an Isuzu engine and benefits from a valid Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) certificate through to September 2026, offering peace of mind for her next owner. The hull was last blacked in February 2023.

Boarding from the semi-traditional stern, you descend four steps into the first of three main living areas. The rear cabin serves as a cosy and well-appointed bedroom, featuring a fixed double berth, fitted wardrobes, and additional overhead cupboard space—ideal for storing clothing and personal items. The layout is thoughtfully designed to maximise storage without compromising on comfort.

Moving forward, you enter the bathroom, which is equipped with a sink basin, radiator, shower, and a Porta Potti toilet. The space is functional and neatly arranged, providing all the essentials for life aboard.

The heart of Sapphire lies in her open-plan galley and saloon. The galley is fitted with a Thetford Caprice cooker, ample worktop space, a stainless steel sink, and generous storage cupboards, making it easy to prepare meals whether moored or underway. The saloon offers a welcoming space to relax and dine, complete with a dining table, a solid fuel stove for warmth during cooler months, and additional storage solutions to keep the area tidy and uncluttered.

At the bow, double doors open onto a well-sheltered front deck, protected by a cratch cover. This area provides a lovely outdoor space to enjoy the scenery, dine al fresco, or simply unwind with a book and a cup of tea. The cratch cover also offers practical benefits, such as additional storage and protection from the elements.

Sapphire is a thoughtfully laid-out narrowboat, ideal for couples or solo cruisers looking for a reliable and comfortable vessel. Whether you're planning weekend getaways or longer adventures along the waterways, she is ready to welcome you aboard.
