Shire Canal Collection – Quietly leading the way
The Shire Canal Collection offers the highest quality, most comprehensive engine package available. Smooth and quiet in operation with unmatched reliability, all Shire engines are built to ISO9001-2008.
There are seven engines with a power range from 40hp to 90hp, suitable for narrow boats, wide beam boats and Dutch barges.
Barrus has been responsible for a number of ‘firsts’, including twin alternators and twin thermostats fitted as standard.
The Shire range is continually being improved and modified to maintain its position as a leader in the market place. All Shire models are now fitted with a new, more efficient twin thermostat housing which facilitates hotter running water and an increased flow. The Shire 45, 50 and 70 models are fitted with 50amp and 240amp alternators as standard.
A new five-year warranty scheme has now been introduced for all models providing a real benefit to owners.
