Dutch Barge Motortjalk 16.59
Vision Doeve Brokers
Former sailing inland waterway cargo ship that was extended in the past and shortened again in the 1960s to her current length and then also converted into a recreational motor barge. In 2011/2012 there was another renovation in which the aft was upgraded. In 2022 the propeller shaft was replaced, the bulwark and freeboard were blasted and recoated and also the underwater ship was well treated. This is a ready-to-use Cruising Live Aboard Dutch Barge with which someone can immediately start discovering the French waterways and enjoying beautiful journeys in France. With the spacious sun deck and the outside steering position it is very comfortable to cruise on the inland waters, and if the weather changes, the inside steering position is also available.
