Overview

This 2007 motor yacht barge represents a unique living opportunity in a vibrant part of London, combining practical cruising capabilities with the comforts of a well-designed interior space. The vessel's robust construction, comprehensive utilities, and desirable mooring location make it an attractive option for those able to make a cash purchase. The steel work was done by John Thomas at Morvoren Seacraft in Penryn Cornwall. The barge shell was then taken to Cockwells Classic & Modern Boatbuilders where the interior was designed and built. An out of water survey was conducted in April 2023 and is available for review.
