The Traditional narrow boat style (or "trad" for short) is where the cabin design follows that of the old commercial canal boats and refers usually to the size of the rear deck (or "counter") which is short in length, the steerer standing between the rear doors. The main seating area is in the bow.

We also specialise in building modified trad styles like “Betty” shown above where the stern radius is increased to give a more usable rear deck while still maintaining the traditional lines.
