Bluewater boats are renowned for the quality of their vessels and this one left the yard in 2006 having been solidly built on a 12.5mm base plate, with 6mm sides and 5m cabin.

The boat is fitted out with quality equipment and finishing is to the high standard you would expect from Bluewater.

The Luxemotor lines are well reproduced and the overall effect is of a very pretty, yet sturdy residential cruising barge.

A great combination of classic looks with modern electrical, mechanical and domestic equipment.
