Dutch Barge 13.60
Vision Doeve Brokers
A real Dutch flatbottom vessel, whose design dates from the first half of the 20th century. This Dutch Barge 13.60 ‘Kagenaar’ takes her name from the Kagerplassen in The Netherlands. Due to her flatbottom she is ideally suited for the shallow waters of the Netherlands, as well as other inland waterways in Europe. This allows her to access places inaccessible to many other vessels. The three solar panels ensure that the batteries are kept properly charged, allowing the ship to operate completely self-sufficiently for a period of time. The deck and superstructure were repainted in July 2025. The underwater hull was treated with a 2-component coating followed by a coat of antifouling in June 2023. The layout from the front to the back is as follows: a forward cabin with a double bed, a salon with (sleeping)sofa, a galley, a bathroom with shower and toilet and a covered steering position in the cockpit equipped with a seating area. Taking over the berth is negotiable in consultation with the harbor master.
