1901 Classic Dutch Barge | 85ft

PLEASE NOTE, PRICE NOW REDUCED TO £130,000! 

A Dutch dry goods sailing barge launched in 1901 in Mijdrecht, Netherlands. Brought to the UK in 1999 and converted to a high standard over almost 2 decades. She offers a full height, spacious comfortable home with many quality features and all modern appliances but with the added benefits of an off-grid river cruising life if desired. Hardwood floors and woodwork, vintage cast iron radiators, wood burners and a main saloon space cleverly divided by bespoke shelving units all contribute to a unique aesthetic. 

An IVECO 150hp 6 cylinder engine with Halyard 2030 Aqua Drive, twin bilge keels and a stern prop tube allow for responsive handling despite her size. Dry docked in 2018 and 2023 at BJ Woods Isleworth for a full survey, propeller refurbish and re-black guarantees the hull's integrity and demonstrates the owner's commitment to preserving this classic vessel's future. She was also re-blacked again in early 2025 at Harleyford Marina, with the new 55 tonne crane lift, providing another future option for survey and future maintenance in the Thames Valley.
