Broker's Comments

Dutch sailing barge for sale in France.
Boatshed Paris is happy to offer this sailing Tjalk for sale.

Built in the Netherlands in 1912, she is still equipped with her mast, sails and leeboards and is used as a live aboard barge on a picturesque river in the Loire region.

Less than 20m she is sadly for sale after just a little more than 2 years because the owner has to move for professional reasons. She can accommodate up to 7 people in 4 cabins.

Our owner has mainly cruised canals and rivers but the vessel is French maritime registered and arrived by sea from the canal du Midi.

Thanks to her 1 metre draft and 3.30m air draft, mast down, she will go on most of the canal systems. All sails and standing riggings are available but will need to be checked before going sailing.

Current mooring could be transferred to a new owner subject to the approval of the local capitainerie. Annual cost is 1026.00 €.

For more information or organise a visit, please contact Pascal your local broker at Boatshed Paris.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
