Broker's Comments
These boat details are subject to contract. Preliminary details awaiting owners approval
If you are looking for a chilled out lifestyle then this could be the boat for you. She started life as a single decker steam boat, a Gosport to IOW ferry built by the prestigious Camper and Nicholson, then she moved to London and served as a double decker Thames pleasure vessel. She is listed on the Register of historic ships at Greenwich. When I boarded her I was struck be the light and airy space that she provides, great headroom and comfort. A fantastic family boat located in a safe environment. There is security access to the whole site, plenty of parking and you are in easy reach of historic towns, amenities and commuter links by train or road. She is excellent value for money when you consider the average value of a 3 bedroom house with a study and a 25ft by 15ft main cabin. The sea is your garden and provides for a very relaxing lifestyle.
So come aboard, you won't be disappointed!
The owners are open to offers.
