Broker's Comments

Live aboard tjalk for sale in France. Boatshed Midi Canal is pleased to offer this renovated Tjalk for sale in the Midi. Major works being carried on that live aboard Dutch barge since our vendor has bought her in 2005. Interior renovated, hull re bottomed where necessary, a new heads built, the old stove removed an air con unit installed to provide heater or cooled air whenever requested. Also a lot of improvements: GE 3.5 Kw whisper installed, new deck in wood.
Last out of water in 2017, hull sandblasting and repainted (twin pack) and the superstructure repainted too.

Comfortable tjalk, ideal for a live aboard use, the heads could be improved with the installation of an interior heads, and the galley up graded to a more modern standard, bright interior, and a great double terrace covered and open to enjoy the scenery when static.Note that the cockpit tent (barnum) is easy to open to allow proper view when cruising.
