A Plan of Merry

This plan should help you find your way around Merry. We think that we thought of pretty much everything when we designed her – or as much as you can squeeze onto a 40-foot boat, and we have been very inventive!

Inventory

 

We use Merry as our bolt-hole in Derbyshire so we have made sure that everything we want is on board. Enjoy the central heating, a hot shower, flushing toilet and cosy beds. A CD player, fridge with freezer box, gas oven and all the cutlery, crockery and kitchen equipment you’ll need. Even 3-pin plugs so definitely more like home than like camping!

Experience

 

The layout reflects our experience of narrowboats:

  • a bow bedroom that is great for breakfast in bed as the sun streams through the doors, or to sit in comfort, watching out as you cruise along

  • a shower room that’s effectively en-suite for both bedrooms

  • a dinette that’s integral with the galley for ease of use

  • a stern galley making it easy to take tea (or beers!) to the person steering at the helm

  • and loads of storage space to contain all your stuff.

 

Forethought

 

We accept that there is limited space on deck because we opted for maximum space inside. However, there is space at the stern for four people to sit and chat – as well as steer – and camping stools provide 2 seats at the bow for a different view, or for real peace and quiet!
