"70ft Wide Beam Barge; Comfort, Style & Tranquillity Afloat"
For sale at Scarisbrick Marina in Lancashire is 'Phoenix Rising', a beautifully presented 70ft wide beam barge, built in 2020 on a Collingwood hull with a high-quality self-build fit out. With just 123 engine hours on its powerful Canaline 70T engine and a Vetus bow thruster for ease of handling, this boat offers both reliability and effortless cruising.
Life aboard this wide beam is all about peace, tranquillity, and the simple pleasures of canal living. Imagine slowly meandering through the waterways of England, drifting past rolling countryside, pausing at charming villages, and tying up outside welcoming pubs for long, lazy afternoons. Whether you are seeking weekend escapes or a full-time lifestyle afloat, this boat delivers the perfect blend of adventure and comfort.
Step inside and you are greeted by a true home from home. The spacious, open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge area creates a warm and inviting living space, complete with a fully equipped kitchen for modern convenience. The lounge is centred around a cosy multi-fuel stove, ideal for curling up on winter evenings as the water laps gently outside. Two good-sized bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for up to four people, and a stylish, modern shower room completes the interior, making life on board both practical and enjoyable.
This vessel is exceptionally well cared for, with her hull last blacked in July 2023 and a Boat Safety Scheme certificate valid until March 2027. She benefits from a robust electrical system with starter, bow thruster, and domestic batteries, a galvanic isolator, as well as heating via both radiators and the stove. Toileting is flexible too, with both pump-out and cassette options available.
Currently moored at Scarisbrick Marina, this is an ideal opportunity to purchase a beautifully maintained and lovingly fitted wide beam barge, perfectly suited for those dreaming of an escape from the bustle of everyday life into a slower, more peaceful way of living.
Viewings are available by appointment.
