Lovely, beautifully fitted out, bespoke cabinetry, and even a traffic/collision avoidance system. Perfect combination of technology and comfort.

I think it's a bit unfair to criticise the filming and presenter - this was not a professional film crew, nor a professional presenter - bearing that in mind I think he did a good job.

Thanks for the overview of this lovely boat. The enthusiasm of the presenter was infectious. I absolutely loved this boat and think it would be great on the French canal system as well. I love barges but find narrow boats too cramped, but this is totally amazing. Well done Finesse. I'm sure it's outside my price bracket but I can dream.

Massive and exquisite. After seeing hundreds of narrow boat videos a wide beamed boat seems more like a house. The interior was very nicely done. The quality and workmanship is appearant. Beautiful boat and a very nice tour. Thanks

Love how he describes the fridge freezer as ‘pretty cool’....I should hope it is!!

I like the "oil tanker" design. It's modern and allows for a better use of space. Other wide beam manufacturers should take note.

Great video, Captain! I am the Captain of a large Cape Size vessel, I would love to sail on such a Nice Lady!

Absolutely lovely craft, pretty well thought out, and it does lend to the future of canal boating. I for one, would not use it on a canal, i would be more prone to trying the Norfolk Broads with it, and keep it moored there. As for design, well done, i would change two things if i were to buy one, first, the Helm area, i would have it enclosed with a slider mechanism that locks securely, to keep all the equipment dry and safe in winter months, and also have the actual controls panel able to rotate, so it stays out of view when parked up and locked up. Finally, in the master bedroom, three wardrobe doors to the front, i would take or use the middle one as a Front exit point with stairs behind going to the top deck. Alternative wardrobe space could probably be found to alleviate the loss of one wardrobe space.

Absolutely gobsmacked! Wonderful boat

Well , I had an appointment at Crick and went on board. I wouldnt swap if for my boat , the owner is never gonna know a minutes peace as all and sundry ask a 1000 questions the minute they pop their head outside. I was impressed though with the brought on shoe wrap machine for dirty feet going on board. Lets be honest its a floating marina apartment for Limehouse basin.

Impressive design, complete and big! Lovely galley

Great tour of an amazing boat - love it 😎

Stunning boat. I especially liked the steps up onto the roof. Why other wide beam builders do not do that always surprised me. The exposed wheel area seemed to be a sunny windless day sailing place only. It does just shows what you can do if you think out of the box.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful motorised longboat it’s so beautiful beautiful are I would love to go on a cruise someday through the canals of England in UK

Truly stunning and a very very refreshing take on the wide beam. The workmanship is outstanding and far more reminiscent of small yacht builds than the typical barge build. It would be interesting to see whether underfloor heating was available thus reducing the need for visible radiators and perhaps the use of incinerator toilets? I suppose this type of build would be bespoke in all senses so assume this could be done. All subject to the budget. Fantastic.

Love the two beds in guest room.

A very smart boat. The new owner should be really pleased 👍👍

Absolutely stunning 👏👏

Gorgeous, what an achievement!

Holy crap! How beautiful and amazing is that? I have seen a gorgeous narrow boat on " Cruising the Cut". This modern take, places it alongside it.

Duncan McLeod lived on a barge on a Paris canal, it was one long room with a raised platform for a Japanese style bed at the bow. I've wanted to live on a barge ever since. I'd also settle for a Whisper catamaran or 20m schooner. Heck, a wee tugboat conversion would suit me just fine.

WOW that is a fantastic boat

Love this boat could use this for all my meeting's in London

Stunning. I'd buy this in a heart beat

Very nice boat,luxurious and tastefully decorated, what a life indeed.

It's super stunning and want one! I'm guessing it makes the most of sola energy been all electric?

That corium is beautiful.

This is a lovely lovely boat. Definitely things I would change in terms of the decor and functionality but it is a lovely space. I would really like to have seen how that bed came down and I would take that big puffy sectional out for that particular space. Thanks for the peek inside.

That boat is cool as hell. I just can’t imagine only being able to drive it in a canal having to worry about hitting a wall the whole trip

A remarkable achievement, very tasteful, functional luxerry, topped with superb workmanship.... music is tasteful as well, wonderful reportage....

Stunning.

Beautiful boat

Amazing craftsmanship, shame the price wasn't mentioned.

David from "Cruising the Cut" would be gob smacked to see this boat. (@cruisingthecut)

Beautiful boat. Is there anywhere you can take it other the rain ditches???

I love the layout, but I'm not sure about the styling. It looks like an oil tanker to me. But I'm sure the owners are super happy with it, and good on them.

Info on charge times, range on full batteries, etc would be awesome.

Love this boat

Beautiful boat with a stunning price I would imagine. I’m sure the couple that own this will truly enjoy living on board.

Stunning !

What a beautiful functional boat. The future!✊👍

Absolutely beautiful craftmanship. I'd love one, wouldn't take it anywhere as there is just me and would be terrified lol but would make a lovely permanent mooring home somewhere. Would have loved to know what this would set you back. Perhaps the owner didn't want us to know.

Very nice, it just all seems a bit sterile I like the charm and character that comes with a conventional narrow boat.

Amazing boat. 👌

I do like the idea and concepts of the design process, just a little bit curious is to why there isn't a second day head or ensuit bathroom in the master bedroom? Overall it looks beautifully laid out.

Beautiful!

Great review.

Great review. 🧡

Absolutely gorgeous and I’m quite sure that if I sold everything I own, I might be close to having enough for a down payment on it. 😂

love the boat, but would be wary crossing the channel to the French canals and rivers as to power and range limitations?

A Wonderful finish and fantastic design. I love the idea of being able to navigate the uk system but at the same time hop across to the french canals...esp the midi. I feel a rather large itch coming on.

Excellent job!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent design and finish, ideal if in London on shore power. A soxe suited to European canals. Good job

Oh my! Beautiful!

One recommendation, raise the helm seat so the captain can see over the steering wheel.

Interesting , Thank You . Looks Well designed and built . My congratulations to the owners .

Лодка просто супер!Все впечатлило,она просто предназначена для очень комфортной жизни на воде. 🔥👍

It’s lovely. What’s not to like? It’ll take up more room on the canals than most barges of course and it’ll cost more that what most barge people can afford, it’s miles away from what I know and associate canal barges to, but there it is. It doesn’t cross the channel does it? Sail around the med? No? Maybe build one that can next?

Gorgeous.

A beautiful boat, but with a major flaw. There is only one way in/out of the vessel, and that's at the stern. It would have been a great idea to have had an exit to the bow, manly for safety reasons and of course for easier moorings. One other point,, is the weed hatch very low to get to, as the decking seems pretty high on the stern.

Wish I could afford it! LOVE!

Great video and nice to see someone designing boat all electric now and that's the way to go I would say and no fuel costs at all but the question is qhats the cost of the boat but a very well idea and design

WOW! What an extraordinary boat. How does it fare for power in UK winter conditions though?

Wow it really is a great design

A very livable space !

Its a work of art...how awesome 👌

That has to be the “ Starship Enterprise “ of inland waterway boats.

I do like the the overall build and details. Like a super yacht but on the inland water ways. Be interesting to see how she handles and what is the displacement fully loaded again an average barge. On a design point the owners cabin, would have like a forwards view while relaxing

Wow, looks great! Almost a little sister of a Silent Yacht - they are to big for your canals!

Very cool. I would enjoy more detail on the drive system. Boat is amazing, presentation is fun. All that’s missing is a wireless lav mic so we can hear you properly. Cheers all!

Wonderful boat. Just some things I would have made different. I would have used floor heating. Some sound dampening panels in the living room and a different heck. It just looks like the money run out especially when fully closed because of bad weather. I really like the size. The hight of the ceiling and the way to get on the deck. And of corse that is electric. Must be a stunning feeling to silently drive on the river. Also the guest room with the spare bed is a very good solution. And the interior indeed looks very luxurious.

What brand is that chrome toaster?

Thank u. Very luxurious. I’d say more for uk rivers. Personally not sure why 8ft headroom. But very nice widebeam. Love the fact it’s a hybrid too. Best wishes

It needs a remote steering position from those seats on deck above the bow - perfect.

Very nice hybrid boat. Does the waste heat from the generator heat the hot water on board?

Amazing!

Went onboard today at Crick boatshow... Staggering but not for the canal network. The owners will live aboard on the Thames.

A beautiful boat for it's designed market. Which is definitely NOT on the western shores of the Atlantic Ocean LOL. I do like that you've acknowledged that you may need to burn "stinky fuel" at times when the sun isn't shining.

Where can you get that coffee maker?

Thank you, Sr.

gorgeous

One of the best builders and boat fitters in the UK.......................

Stunning live aboard canal boat! The stuff of dreams! There is only one design issue, that would be a deal breaker to me. The separation and distance, between the dining table and the kitchen is no good. Seems this would be a fairly easy layout fix, though. I would rather have the kitchen area, between the dining and living room spaces.

Nice start for your channel, but you really need to sort out the audio. Wireless collar mike would make for consistent levels and echo reduction.

What is the brand name of that toaster and coffee maker? Anybody know?

Is this going to be used for regular cruising or more suitable for moorings? I'd be paranoid taking this down some of the overdue for dredging canal networks.

Electric is perfect for canal boats. Smelly, noisy and polluting diesels are overdue for conversion, which I expect is a lot more straightforward than converting a car. Nice boat too!

Totally impressive. COST????

I think we have a winner! Can you make mine like this please!!

Bangin’

Without having to bother them via their website, what is the price of one of those, on average kinda?..or a starting price for a basic model?..

Wonder how well it sets sail in high seas.

Where can you get that toaster?

In order to "sail"...wouldn't one need a "mast" with a "sail" on it?

Question, would this fit in locks in the UK, did a week on a narrow boat around Birmingham and don't think this would get through many of them

Well wots the price for this beautiful boat

can these get delivered to the US?

Thank you for a nice tour but please cover all the details of the helm station next time.

How much does it cost. Very disappointed you did not say.

So are the rails automated to fold down for cleareance or are they a manual affair?
