Narrowboat Sparks
Midland Canal Centre have been building boats together with their sister company, Stenson Boatbuilders, for 20 years at their base on the Trent & Mersey Canal. They have developed a deserved reputation for designing durable craft with elegant steelwork and neatly crafted well thought out interior layouts. Sparks is a good example in the popular semi trad style and of an easy-to-handle length, with a light and spacious fi t out in light oak. The equipment has been kept simple - the electrics are a 12v system with gas cooking in the galley. The aft cabin can be left set up as a permanent double berth if desired. The exterior paintwork has faded and this is refl ected in the price, but otherwise this is an excellent boat. It is understood that the mooring is available to
the buyer.
