Dutch Barge 17.16
Vision Doeve Brokers
Former inland deckbarge that, after being used for among other things cocoa transport, was converted into a work vessel and subsequently converted into a recreational vessel / live aboard. The vessel is well-maintained and has a practical layout, making her ideal for comfortable cruises or longer stays on board. The wheelhouse offers excellent all-around visibility and features a comfortable seating area. The bathroom is equipped with an electric toilet and a shower. Then there is the galley, followed by the salon. In the front, there are two cabins, each with a 1-persons bed. There is also a storage and workshop in the bow that is accessible from the outside. The engine room, with a 120 hp engine, is located under the wheelhouse. The lantern mast is prepared for electric lowering but still needs to be connected. The paintwork is in good condition. The deck is done yearly and the superstructure was last painted in 2023. This boat is an excellent choice for water sports enthusiasts looking for a practical boat for the weekends, holidays, and/or long stays on board.
