This boat is a tardis on 3 different levels and in 2 sections.
The new part has a large lounge/diner and steps lead down to a charming study/den with free standing bookshelves and a sofabed which can turn this room into an extra cabin.

In the older part of the accomodation, enter through the galley and into a secondary kitchen area with more fitted units. A shower room is adjacent, then descend steps to find a fully fitted bathroom with full sized bath, wash hand basin and WC.
The master cabin is beautifully fitted and very comfortable. There is also a twin bunked cabin, which is at present being used as a walk in wardrobe, but this could easily be turned back into its original function.

The wheelhouse stands alone on the deck and makes a wonderful place to sit and survey the surroundings. Well equipped for sea, the wheelhouse also has a comfortable seat behind the helm(s).

Broker's Comments

A rare chance to buy a Swedish Icebreaker which has been transformed into an unusual home.

Like a tardis inside, this boat goes on and on with numerous interesting features on the way, combining old and new in stylish detail.

For the engine enthusiast, there is no doubt that this boat will take you anywhere you want to go.

At present on a Grade 1 mooring in Poplar Dock, there is a fully residential mooring available on transfer to a new owner.

Viewing of this boat is not to be missed if you are looking for a completely different view of the City and all it has to offer.
