Tour of a 58ft Solar Electric Narrowboat | Mothership Marine 'Damselfly'

Join Tim Knox from Mothership Marine Ltd at Oundle Marina for a full tour of our latest launch, "Damselfly." This 58ft semi-cruiser is a stunning example of a modern electric narrowboat designed specifically for family holidays. In this video, Tim demonstrates the incredible efficiency of the solar array (comparing it to a 7-year-old system), tests the power of the electric propulsion, and takes you through the beautifully crafted interior featuring reclaimed wood and smart storage solutions. Key Features of Damselfly: Electric Propulsion: Powered by a silent 15kW Törkmar motor and supported by a 6kW generator. Solar Power: extensive solar array providing impressive charge even in variable weather. Family Layout: Sleeps up to 6 people, featuring a "drawbridge" bed system for children and an electric rising dinette table. Modern Galley: Equipped with an induction hob, air fryer, integrated DC fridge, and washing machine. Smart Tech: Remote monitoring, Alexa integration, and USB charging points throughout. Unique Design: Features epoxy resin worktops and sentimental furniture pieces incorporated into the build (look out for the vintage drawers!).
