Luxe Motor Dutch Barge 21.08, ES-TRIN certified
Vision Doeve Brokers
This Liveaboard Dutch Barge has proven itself in practice as a comfortable and reliable cruising vessel, while her layout also makes her highly suitable for living aboard. The current owners have maintained the vessel with great care, presenting her in a fresh, tidy and ready-to-cruise condition. A distinctive feature is the spacious raised aft deck with outside steering position. This creates a comfortable outdoor living area where cruising and the surroundings can be enjoyed to the fullest in fine weather. For less favorable weather conditions, the vessel has an inside steering position. Then it is easy to moor the ship, thanks to the side doors. During the extensive refit between 1999 and 2004, the technical installation was almost completely renewed. This included among other things the installation of a new main engine and a generator. A completely new interior was also fitted. The accommodation offers two cabins, a spacious bathroom, a separate toilet and a generous wheelhouse salon with a modern galley, making extended stays aboard particularly comfortable. In our opinion, this is a Luxe Motor that offers a high level of living and cruising comfort. An exceptionally well-maintained Liveaboard Dutch Barge, ready for new voyages or a comfortable life on the water.
