Broker's Comments
Residential cruising barge for sale in France. Boatshed Bourgogne is pleased to offer this live aboard barge for sale in burgundy.
No frills, no fuss. Conceived for practical, comfortable trouble-free cruising with a maximum of autonomy and liberty and professionally built to Cat. D navigation class. A thoroughly practical cruising home with ability to take a small car (or enormous motorcycle) along with you.
This is the second time we have been entrusted with the sale of this vessel and our present vendor is only parting with her due to an unforeseen change in circumstances which prevent him from spending time on the vessel.
As you can see from our photos she has a covering of dust and pollen but otherwise she's the same solid built cruising home underneath.
For more information and appointments to view, please contact, Graham, your Boatshed broker at Boatshed Bourgogne.
