BARGE FOR SALE, IDEAL HOUSEBOAT RESTORATION PROJECTLying near Beverley. East Yorkshire, the Jondor presents a superb opportunity for a live-aboard project and is even large enough to convert into restaurant, hotel, bar…Built in the 50s, the Jondor was originally used to transport oil, hence it’s heavy gauge steel keel. Additionally, the floor of the boat, protected from erosion and rust by the oil, is absolutely spotless with none of the bumps and dints that are present on vessels formerly used for the transportation of aggregates, gravel…Presently moored very close to the charming historical market town of Beverley, an ideal situation for accessing Hull’s dry dock, a hub of expertise for boat restoration, the barge has already had substantial work done to smooth the progress of a conversion to live-aboard: pipes removed, cleaning, doorways cut so that it is now possible to walk the whole length of the boat below deck The vessel still retains its integrity, character and a lot of original architectural elements which a future owner might want to keep. Steel baffles dividing the vessel in several rooms (or can be removed if an open-plan space is preferred)Crew quarters at the bow with working gas cookerLarge deck on both sides of the barge, wheel-chair access possibleExceedingly strong steel top/roof already in placeLarge engine-room with two large diesel tanks, spacious enough to accommodate a bank of batteries, water tank, generators…Original prop shaft and propeller fittedOriginal barn-door rudder We can also offer a marine engine, available separately. Dimensions: Length: 120ftWidth: 17.5ft This boat is a bargain, a lot of boat for the money, a good foundation to build a beautiful vessel and is a must-see. Please do not hesitate to phone us any time on 01482 67 92 22 for more information about this beautiful Humber barge or to make an appointment to view.
