Flossie Doll Rags – 60’x10′ Widebeam Cruiser Piper 2004
Flossie Doll Rags is a lovely 60’ x 10’ widebeam built in 2004 by Piper Boats and fitted out by Fred Reynolds of Cheshire Narrowboats. At 10’ wide, she offers the luxury of additional space for living aboard, yet is easier to handle than widebeams of 12’ or 14’ wide.
The stern deck is a large open social space at 8’ long. The Beta 50 is under the deck boards in a spacious and clean engine room. She is reverse layout, so the steps lead down into the galley. Generously proportioned at 8’6” long, the utilities comprise of a 12v fridge with icebox, a 4 burner gas hob, oven & grill, stainless steel sink and a full size washing machine. Plenty of both cupboard space and preparation surface.
The 13’ saloon features a breakfast bar (with two stools), two sofas and an AGA solid fuel stove. There is room in here for a free standing dining table if desired. A starboard-side side hatch offers additional light and air, and the TV aerial point is at the cupboard next to the stove.
The first of two double bedrooms is off the port side corridor. The bed is 6’6”x4’6” and has storage under. There is also a wardrobe and a small dressing table with drawers, along with a couple of shelves.
A spacious bathroom follows; the shower is a tiled quadrant cubicle, the loo is an electric flush cassette, the basin is counter sunk over vanity unit and there is a heated towel rail.
The master bedroom is in the forward cabin. Currently open plan, there is room for a kingsize bed and it currently has a wardrobe and two chests of drawers in, along with another cupboard and some shelves. Both bedrooms have TV aerial points in.
Steps lead up onto the front deck.
Central heating is from a gas fired Alde boiler (recently new) and hot water is heated by the engine, the Alde or an immersion heater. 230v is from either landline or the 1600w inverter, and lighting is LED throughout. The domestic battery bank is large (x6) and all were new in 2019. These are topped up by 600w of solar power.
Ready to move into, she will make someone a lovely residential or holiday home.
