Broker's Comments

We are delighted to offer this beautifully presented traditional Dutch motor cruiser, which is in exceptional condition for its age.

The current owner has invested heavily in a comprehensive refurbishment, which includes:

A full professional workshop respray
New synthetic decking throughout
All exterior timberwork restored to a high standard
The interior has also been fully upgraded, featuring new wall coverings, upholstery, curtains, and head linings. A brand-new shower room has been fitted, complete with underfloor heating and a vacuum-flush toilet. The boat is also equipped with a new calorifier and a diesel hot air heating system, which can be controlled remotely via Hive over the internet.

Additional onboard amenities include a separate washing machine and tumble dryer, fridge/freezer, microwave, and more — making this vessel highly suitable for extended cruising or living aboard.

Mechanically, she is powered by a 2010 Mitsubishi 90hp engine, which presents in near-new condition, and benefits from a hydraulic bow thruster for easy maneuvering. A new Raymarine navigation system has also been installed.

One particularly unique feature is the custom-built holding tank, cleverly integrated into the swim platform — a true reflection of the thought and craftsmanship that has gone into this boat’s restoration.

We have personally visited this vessel and can confidently recommend her to anyone seeking a high-quality, ready-to-go Dutch cruiser for leisure or liveaboard use.
