Hi, welcome to my listing for my newly fitted narrow boat, Birdie. She's been recently fitted out to a high standard, blacked and painted. Birdie is modern, sleek but with a homely feel with her shaker kitchen, Oak floor and trims, and warm lights. She's been well very looked after and it shows in the condition of the hull. She comes with a recent survey and boat safety certificate which I'm happy to send over.
