A former inland barge that has been converted into a recreational barge / houseboat. The hull of the Luxe Motor is very straight. From front to back there is the forepeak, a cabin with 2-persons bed, a spacious saloon and the galley. In the rear cabin is the toilet but this space is also used as storage / workshop. The engine room is provided with a 6-cylinder Gardner engine. According to experts is this the Rolls Royce among engines. The ship is not liable for certification and therefore many European waters, including France, are sailable.
