Description
Hummingbird is a distinctive 68ft Traditional Narrowboat, built in 2000 by the highly regarded Stoke-on-Trent Narrowboats. The boat is powered by a magnificent Gardner engine, positioned just ahead of the characterful Boatman’s cabin.
The boat has undergone a number of recent upgrades including: new two pack epoxy blacking in July 2026, new Salamander Hobbit multi-fuel stove fitted in Jan 2026, new cratch cover in September 2026, and a full service of the Rayburn cooker and heating system in 2026.
The boat was last surveyed in December 2025 and the report is available to view on request.
Hummingbird is now available to view at Swanley Bridge Marina, near Nantwich.
