Profile: K.U. Crispin, who runs Kodianthara Heritage Home, is the 10th and youngest of the children of late Uppachan and Annamma Kodianthara. He was baptised by the late Thomas Tharayil, the bishop of Kotttayam diocese. It was His Grace who chose the name Crispin -- the saint from Vitterbo, Italy.

A prosperous paddy and plantation owner of the Kuttanad region, Uppachan built one of the first motorized boats ever seen in Kumarakom. He used the boat to travel to his paddy fields and plantations and named it St. Crispin after his 10th-born.

It is in memory of the boat that his father built -- and to reaffirm his faith in the Italian saint whose namesake he is -- that Crispin has chosen to name his own houseboat St. Crispin.
The new St. Crispin is being built to provide an experience that will combine privacy, safety, comfort, great hospitality, hygiene and warmth.

The houseboat is a double-decker, with the upper deck having conference facilities and a capacity to cater to 40 people. It will also have a cosy double bedroom with attached bath, a living area with a TV and music system, and a sundeck. An ideal space for hosting parties and other events.

The lower deck has 2 double rooms with ACs and attached baths, with each room capable of accommodating 2 adults and two or three children. The deck has its own dining area with TV and music system, and a sitout.

St. Crispin's spacious kitchen is also on the lowerdeck, as also the 20 KV generator that powers the boat.

The two decks ensure that two separate groups can hire the boat at the same time - even as they maintain their privacy and exclusivity - at half the cost of hiring a full houseboat.

Serving the people on board will be a well-trained staff who are skilled at their work and provide service with trademark Malayalee courtesy.

So, make your plans -- we will have St. Crispin in the water by mid-December 2008!

Period: From 15-01-2009 To 30-11-2009
