‘April Dreamer’ is a two berth, cruiser stern narrow boat with a traditional layout. The fit-out is basic and functional, and with the passing of time it could now do with a re-fresh and upgrade, but for a practically minded person this should present an exciting opportunity to purchase a medium sized narrow boat for a good price.
Available for viewings 7 days a week by prior appointment please.
