Vision Doeve Brokers

A former inland cargo vessel that has been converted into a comfortable cruising Dutch Barge, transforming its original cargo-carrying function into a practical and spacious living environment. The layout, from the front to the aft, is as follows: the forward section accommodates two cabins, one of which is fitted with a double bed (2.00 x 1.25 m). Moving aft, there is a galley and a bathroom with an electric toilet and shower. This leads into the salon, where an additional double berth is situated beneath the wheelhouse. The spacious wheelhouse features comfortable seating and provides a pleasant living area with panoramic views of the surroundings. The aft deck is fitted with a permanent canopy, creating a sheltered outdoor seating area. The vessel has a fully doubled bottom plating. Equipped with both a bow and a stern thruster, she offers excellent maneuverability, particularly when berthing and navigating confined harbor spaces. A low-noise generator and six solar panels provide the ability to generate electricity independently while on board. With her onboard facilities and practical layout, this vessel is well suited for both permanent residential use and extended cruising, offering an excellent opportunity to explore Europe's extensive inland waterways network.
