Description
This 18m Dutch Barge Hagenaar at South Dock Marina offers a rare opportunity to secure
a permanent residential mooring in one of the city's most peaceful maritime communities.
Perfect for those looking to embrace boat life without sacrificing space, this two-bedroom
barge features a surprisingly roomy interior flooded with natural light from a large central
skylight in the main living area and kitchen.
The vessel has been well maintained and is in solid condition, backed by a 2022 survey
report. For peace of mind, she was out of the water again in 2025 for reblacking and new
anodes. Recent interior and exterior revamps mean she is very presentable as is, allowing
you to move straight in and simply add your own personal style over time. Beyond the
bright interior, there is plenty of usable deck space to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the
marina.
Mechanically, the boat is well-equipped with a reliable engine that offers excellent access
for easy maintenance, along with a Victron battery charger/inverter system
