Motortjalk 16.50 Woonschip

Motortjalk 16.250 – A charming, move-in-ready houseboat with plenty of living space, central heating, and double-glazed windows!

Are you looking for a characterful houseboat that combines old-world charm with modern comforts? Then this beautiful Dutch motor tjalk from 1898 is definitely worth a visit.

Originally built as a cargo ship for transporting grain, this vessel has been converted over the years into a comfortable and charming houseboat. On board, you’ll immediately experience its warm atmosphere, spacious living areas, and an abundance of natural light.

Thanks to the many large windows, you’ll enjoy a beautiful view of the water and a very pleasant flow of natural light throughout the vessel. This gives the spacious salon an open and homey feel, and together with the modern kitchen-dining area, it forms the heart of the ship. The kitchen is equipped with various built-in appliances and offers plenty of space for comfortable cooking and living on board.

With a headroom of approximately 1.85 to 1.90 meters, the boat offers a surprisingly spacious feel. Combined with good insulation, double-glazed windows, and the Kabola central heating system, the boat is ideally suited for permanent residence or long-term stays.

The spacious owner’s cabin features ample closet space and a vanity unit. In addition, there are two toilets on board and even a washing machine, making the comfort on board comparable to that of a home on shore.

This motorjalk has much to offer not only as a houseboat but also as a cruising vessel. Thanks to its low clearance height and shallow draft, it has an exceptionally large cruising range. Extensive trips through the Netherlands, Belgium, France, and Germany are therefore well within the realm of possibility.

The reliable DAF 575 diesel engine, combined with the bow thruster, ensures excellent handling and easy maneuvering, even for a solo skipper.

In November 2023, the hull was professionally treated at the shipyard. A hull thickness report was also prepared at that time.
