The sociable semi-cruiser sterns are proving to be very popular with Mothership owners, especially those interested in an electric narrowboat on the Thames. Helius himself would approve. Beneath the deck, like the unseen power of the sun, 40kWh of lithium batteries and our ever-reliable PMAC water-cooled electric motor provide sustainable energy. 

As you descend the companionway stairs into the boat, you’ll discover the electrical cupboard on the starboard side. A washer dryer cupboard is just ahead. On the port side, a spacious loo fitted with a pump out toilet doubles as a cloakroom. This makes it perfect for journeys on the Thames in an electric narrowboat.

Walk forward and you enter the lounge/dining area, designed for both relaxation and social warmth. Here, a brass Refleks stove flickers casting heat across the room. The centerpiece is the pair of double-ended chaises longues—an imaginative, versatile design that can transform. It changes into seating, dining, or sleeping, perfect for your journey on an electric narrowboat on the Thames. 

For entertainment, there is a pivoting TV screen linked into an Amazon Firestick and an Alexia, bringing modern comfort to your Thames adventure with an electric narrowboat.

Move further up the boat and you’ll reach the galley. The breakfast bar is just the beginning, with appliances including a fridge-freezer, a Quooker tap, oven, induction hob, and dishwasher. Beneath your feet, hidden in the floor, lies wine and beer storage, making the electric narrowboat on the Thames a true home on the water.

Pass through the sliding door into the bathroom, where another pump out toilet resides. Beside it, a large bespoke shower crafted from 10mm plate glass is trimmed at the top with fibreglass-lined oak. This design traps steam inside the shower, keeping the bathroom steam free.

The forward door of the bathroom opens into Helius’s ‘dressing table’, a luxury rarely found on a narrowboat. The bedroom features the Mothership drawbridge bed, which lifts to reveal six spacious storage bins beneath. At the base of the beds are drawers with more clothes storage on the starboard side. Additionally, the boat’s 5G Teltonika Wifi Router is essential for staying connected while exploring the Thames on an electric narrowboat.

To gain access to the tug deck there is a hinged ladder. With the addition of 2 fixed seats either side of the tug deck, this area has become very sociable. It further enhances the electric narrowboat experience on the Thames.

Under the tug deck lies a 600-litre freshwater tank and a 7kW generator plus storage for a 20kg anchor and chain necessary for river travel on the Thames with an electric narrowboat.
