PICKMERE 40ft


In my previous post I mentioned the challenge of fitting out a 40-45ft narrowboat hull.


The Pickmere 40 by the Northwich Boat Company is a prime example of how well a couple can cruise the canals on a 40 footer. 


Technically it can accomodate 4, but I wouldn't want to try it. But two ?? It would be very comfortable indeed.


The website price of £45,995 includes a great list of inclusions making it ready to cruise, however, one may want for a few luxuries such as pump out loo, L-shape dinette, gas heater with towel rail and radiators or sine wave inverter for instance, which will add anothe £6-7K to the base price.


But for mid-length narrowboat comparison, the Pickmere is a great yard stick.
