Boat Details: A 69 foot, cruiser stern, narrowboat blending traditional craftsmanship with a modern approach to cruising. Each sleeping quarter (up to four cabins including the saloon areas) can be divided by a separating door, providing plenty of privacy. For your comfort and convenience, Norbury Monarch has central heating, two toilets and three washbasins in addition to a separate shower room. The fully equipped galley is light and bright and combines with the L-shaped dinette to make a great relaxation area for the whole crew. A colour TV/DVD and radio/CD player are also provided.

Start time: The usual collection time is 3.00pm. We welcome hirers to turn up from 1.30pm onwards and as soon as their boat becomes available we will board them. Please note that the last 'show round' time is 5.00pm. Boats need to be returned by 9.30am on the last day and vacated by 10.00am.

Price Includes: VAT, full boat inventory, all fuel (gas and diesel), bed linen, 1 hand towel and 1 bath towel per person, car parking, boating tuition on arrival. Buoyancy aids are available on request. Cleaning materials provided. (Fuel inclusive – This boat is handed over with a full diesel tank and full gas bottles at no cost to the hirer. This will normally suffice for one week's cruising. Please see Booking & Hire Conditions below).

Damage Waiver: A Damage Waiver Premium of £50 is payable on every hire. This is a single non-refundable payment, which covers you for any accidental damage or loss to the boat or its equipment whilst on hire to you (except for negligent or malicious damage). For single-sex (or young) groups, an extra security deposit may be payable on arrival, a card-swipe will be taken to cover £1000 and cancelled upon your return, if the boat is returned on time, in a reasonably clean state and without any negligent damage, or third party claims against you (this extra security deposit will not be applicable for 2016 bookings).

Pets: Pets are welcome. First pet is included within the basic boat hire price. Subsequent pets welcome for an additional charge of £25 per pet.

Deposit Payment: A booking deposit of 20% of the total cost is payable initially, with the balance of hire due 6 weeks before your arrival date. There is a 2% surcharge if you wish to pay by credit card, but no surcharge for payment with a debit card.

Cancellation Cover: Cancellation protection cover is not included, but can be offered by the boat company if required. .
