We have always built our own hulls and offer tug (josher bow option) trad, semi trad and crusier. Fine lines and good swim give our hulls a particularly pleasing appearance and good handling.

In addition to winning the Marion Munk & Lionel Munk trophies we feel it appropriate to repeat Canal Boat's heading in their review of Stoker a 68ft Tug " This magnificent boat combines classic lines, with an interior that is modern, but with a traditional feel. Recessed panels and rivets add to the tug-style look, while a vintage Gardner diesel provides the final touch"

Engine choice is left to the customer. We are happy to advise. Our experience extends from the modern light diesel to the traditional unit housed in its own centre engine room and covers all different types of transmission and couplings.

The perfect complement to a Stoke on Trent hull is a Stoke on Trent fit out. We have always specialised in the fully fitted narrowboat and believe that in both design and execution our interiors are second to none. As with our hulls we make all our joinery, hand crafted in the solid traditional manner. Timber and upholstery finishes are to your choice. This respect for tradition is matched by our years of selecting and fitting the latest electrical and service systems. As we have specialised in liveaboard and extended cruising designs we are well used to bringing the comforts and convenience of home to your life aboard.

If you have not drawn up your own specifications you may find our standard plans and layouts helpful. Either way we believe in working together to achieve the perfect result first time. We know that your satisfaction is our best advertisement and always been proud and grateful for the excellent relations we enjoy with the ever-growing band of Stoke on Trent boat owners. But of course you will want to see for yourself: rest assured that a warm welcome awaits you here when we look forward to showing you just what makes our boats something rather special.
