Introducing Coot, our most advanced narrowboat yet. At first glance, it might not look too different but that’s the beauty of it. The real magic lies beneath the surface.
This hybrid-engine boat combines sleek design with cutting-edge technology. Look a little closer (or listen carefully!) and you’ll spot the stylish solar panels on the roof and you won’t hear the usual chug of a diesel engine. Instead, you’ll enjoy peaceful, silent cruising with zero exhaust smoke. Win-win!

Coot is perfect for anyone who wants the environmental benefits of electric travel, but with the reassurance of diesel backup for longer cruising days. You won’t need to worry about running out of power or inconvenient charging stops, just switch to diesel and keep going.

Step inside and you’ll find a beautifully finished interior, just as luxurious and welcoming as the rest of the Beacon Park Boats fleet.

Coot features a modern all-electric Neff oven and stove, powered by a high-capacity battery pack, perfect for cooking up a storm on board.

And when the evenings turn cool, the wood-fired log burner keeps things cosy.
