Description
Athena is a stunning 65’ x 11’6”, wide beam narrowboat, with many unique features. Seasoned narrowboat owner and architect Seb Walsh designed the boat from scratch, in collaboration with his partner, designer Sue Brettell. The bespoke steel hull was built by Colecraft, and Garf Norman at The Boat Yard in Ely managed the fit out. Athena was registered in August 2019. An equivalent vessel ordered today would probably cost in the region of £220k-£230k.

Athena is perfect for both cruising and living on a permanent mooring in comfort and style. Ideal for a couple or small family, she potentially sleeps up to six with a master double bedroom, a single bunk in the bedroom/office (with the option to install a second bunk above) and plenty of room for a double sofa bed in the saloon.
