Broker's Comments

These boat details are subject to contract.

A superbly maintained classic Dutch barge. Originally built as a commercial barge she was converted in the 1930's for pleasure. Her current owner has completed various refurbishments and maintenance work. If you are considering exploring in a vessel that would be manageable with a crew of two then this is the barge for you. Lots of people make the mistake of going for a huge barge only to find they struggle with mooring and handling their vesel. This barge is ideal for extended cruising or a houseboat. more by hand. She exudes character and would be the talk of any marina or club.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
