Vision Doeve Brokers

Former inland cargo ship that has been completely professionally refurbished into a cruising Live Aboard Dutch Barge / houseboat. This Dutch Barge has a lot of interior volume and even has a spacious open cockpit which is easily accessible from the salon. The interior is of a yacht quality and is in a good condition. There are 2 cabins, a bathroom, a spacious wheelhouse with a comfortable fixed settee with table, a salon with an open kitchen with a fixed settee with table. Under the cockpit floor is a technical room and the battery pack. The engine room is neat and equipped with a solid DAF 615 diesel engine and a whisper generator set. The hydraulic bow thruster rotates 360 degrees and together with the Becker rudder it is a very maneuverable Dutch Barge which is very suitable for the inland waterways of Belgium, France, the Netherlands and Germany.
