We have found that they do not represent good value for money and can be unreliable. A 240v fridge is about £120, a 12v equivalent is about £350 and a 3-way gas fridge is about £600. We fit 12v fridges as standard because they are no fuss, good value and run comfortably off the batteries. I hope that helps. Regards, Jonathan

Hi. First, have you both spent time on a boat? Because I would hate for you to go down this route and end up getting a boat and deciding it's not for you! Our price for a bespoke 65ft boat starts at £89,995. We are getting ready for the show season and have some of the boats nearing completion that we will be exhibiting so it's a good time to come over. Often people can only make it at weekends so I Saturdays are a busy day for me. If you want to book a time give me a call on 07920077500. All the best, Jonathan Mills, Managing Director

Central heating, solid fuel stove, under floor heating and superior insulation using compressed foam help to ensure that your boat is cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

The majority of our boats are powered by Marine Diesels, specifically we recommend a Beta or Barrus Shire powerplant.
