Hoop Op Welvaart is a 1907 Dutch Tjalk completely
renovated to an extremely high standard between 2015 and
today. No expense spared and was to be a forever home but
life circumstances have reluctantly forced the sale.
Sailed over to the UK in the late 80's this Tjalk has
lived an interesting life and was once a working Sailing
Barge delivering various goods around the coast of
Holland. Tonnage book and some old documents are still
with her.
Fits on the Grand Union and Kennet & Avon Canals and
all the way up to Lechlade on the Thames for some epic
Adventures but still a lovely large home to settle down
in!
2 double bedrooms, 4 berth with a den under front deck
which will sleep 2 young children.
Lined with white painted ply and Black Walnut trim with
Oak and Black Walnut Doors, fitted furniture and details.
Engineered Oak flooring throughout.
Riveted Iron construction with part steel cabin when it
was extended and raised giving better head room.
Internally the hull has been checked, cleaned and painted
as part of the full renovation. Loads of photos of the
project can be supplied to the buyer for the boats
history.
