Luxe Motor 36.72, ES-TRIN Rhine certified
Vision Doeve Brokers
This former inland cargo vessel was fully converted into a cruising houseboat/Dutch Barge around 1999. The vessel is certified for EU zones 3 and 4, the Rhine, and also for zone 2 in the Netherlands. During the conversion, the original aft accommodation was largely preserved. Through the beautifully paneled wheelhouse, the aft accommodation is directly connected to the living area in the former cargo hold. The spacious bathroom is equipped with a shower cabin, bathtub and double washbasin. In addition, there is a separate toiletroom. A staircase in the corridor leads to the sun deck. The open-plan galley is generously laid out and adjoins the salon. Furthermore, there are three cabins. In the fore ship, there is a workshop that is well-accessible and equipped with a large deck hatch. The vessel offers exceptional living space and a very extensive cruising area, extending as far as the Black Sea. Closer to home, this houseboat also performs excellently, both underway and as a stationary residence, for example via the Ships Carousel or at a permanent berth. This is a comfortable, spacious and versatile houseboat with a wide-range of using possibilities.
