1 / 10
Description
Elfin is a delightful 35ft cruiser stern narrowboat offering a cosy interior, sociable
outdoor space, and a sound steel hull. Built by Hallmark Boats in 1997, she’s an
ideal, easy-to-handle, compact cruiser for weekends away, leisure boating, or
first time ownership. She comes with a recent out of water survey (May 2024) which
confirms she is structurally sound with good steel uniformity and no major defects.
She has recently benefitted from a number of pre-sale improvements. Cosmetic,
structural and mechanical. She has also had a full, professional clean: both outside
and inside (July 2026).
Provided with all equipment needed to get out on the water, including life jackets,
windlass and handcuff key. Plus many other extras included.
Currently moored at her home berth in Rodley, West Yorkshire and available for
viewing. Mooring may also be available.
