🔧 Behind the Scenes on Spirit of St. Louis 🔧
Most guests see the warm lighting, comfortable furnishings, and peaceful marina views. What they don’t see is the work that goes on beneath the floorboards to make their stay more comfortable, reliable, and energy efficient.
Today we installed a brand-new upgraded water heater aboard Spirit of St. Louis. Hidden away beneath the panels, this new unit will provide faster hot water recovery, improved reliability, and greater energy efficiency than the previous system.

It’s one of those upgrades that guests may never notice directly—and that’s exactly the point. Whether you’re enjoying a long hot shower after a day exploring Cheshire, washing up after breakfast, or simply settling in for a relaxing evening afloat, everything should just work seamlessly.
At The Komet Canal Boat Company, we’re constantly investing in our boats, not only in the things you can see but also in the infrastructure you can’t. From electrical systems and heating to plumbing and insulation, every improvement is aimed at creating a better experience for our guests.
The finest hospitality is often hidden behind the panels.
