Introducing the Star Chaser, a 52-foot cruiser stern narrowboat that represents the pinnacle of aquatic craftsmanship. Built in 2004 by the highly acclaimed John White Boat Builders, this vessel is synonymous with durability and seamless navigation through the British waterways. Its construction is designed to offer both comfort and reliability, making it an ideal choice for both leisure and long-term living on the water.
At the heart of Star Chaser lies its thoughtful layout, designed to maximise comfort and functionality. From the stern, one enters a cosy bedroom featuring a fixed double bed adorned with storage solutions such as a wardrobe, drawers, and overhead compartments, all laid over solid wood flooring. Moving forward, the bathroom offers a sanctuary of relaxation with its basin and vanity, wall-mounted mirror, shower, and pump out toilet.
Central to the boat’s communal area is the dinette, cleverly designed to transform into a double bed, complemented by storage under the seats and solid wood flooring. The galley, a chef’s delight, is equipped with a 4 burner gas hob, an under eye-level oven and grill, microwave, and stylish solid wood-style kitchen units with worktops, alongside a stainless steel sink and drain, 240 fridge, all set on solid wood flooring.
The saloon, a versatile living space, features L-shaped seating convertible into a double bed with storage beneath, a multi-fuel stove with a tile surround, and an under gunnel fold-away table, maintaining the consistent elegance of solid wood flooring throughout.
Star Chaser’s technical specifications include a Beta marine 4 Cylinder engine, ensuring reliable propulsion. The boat comes with a Boat Safety Certificate valid until 03/06/2026, with its last survey conducted on 19 April 2022. Insulation is expertly managed with spray foam, and a galvanic isolator ensures electrical safety. Though the boat lacks an inspection hatch, it compensates with features like external bow covers and side hatches opposite the dinette on the starboard side, enhancing the onboard experience.
The hull’s thickness stands testament to the boat’s robust construction, with a base plate of 10 and sides of 6. Utilities onboard include a shoreline hook-up, 12v and 240 sockets, Victron Easy Solar 1600 inverter/charger, 12v lighting throughout, and a 700w solar setup for energy independence. A calorifier and an Eberspacher diesel boiler provide hot water, complemented by cabin heating options of an Eberspacher diesel heater and a multi-fuel stove for those chilly evenings.
Storage for gas cylinders accommodates 2 x 13kg, ensuring fuel for your journeys, and battery setup includes 1 x starter 100ah and 3 x leisure 118ah, supporting all your electrical needs. Although the fuel tank and water tank capacities remain unspecified, the boat promises ample provision for extended adventures.
Star Chaser invites you to embark on a journey of discovery and relaxation, offering a perfect blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern amenities for an unforgettable experience on the water.
