Build date is estimated. Construction is riveted Iron and the present fit-out is by our vendor and dates from 2003.
Insulation was made by the vendor with a 1cm isolation (foam with reflector equivalent of 8 cm of rockwhool but easier to install. He has installed it on sides and on roof before laying the wood panels.
The rockwool you can see in the bilge is only laid on top of the piping.
The manual toilet, flushed with outside water has a filter system
Last anti fouling in 2013
no black water tanks
NOTE: one of the diesel tanks is empty and is licking, the boat is running on the second tank, a solution with the local yard could be proposed (install a plastic tank inside the steel tank, access from the floor possible).

Broker's Comments
Residential barge for sale in France. Boatshed Bourgogne is pleased to offer this 13 meter dutch Tjalk for sale in North of Burgundy, almost in the Paris area. The current owners bought her in Holland in 2003, and brought her up to today’s standard. Due to the size of the boat it can navigate all the canals of France. The hull is partially doubled by a Professional shipyard in Holland in 2000, and cabin structure is reconditioned by a Professional shipyard in France. The hull was repainted in 2013 by a professional yard. This comfortable boat has been converted by the current owner into a very practical live aboard barge. Every inch of space is used in a very practical way and includes two pull out office desks sliding under the deck.
Due to family circumstances, our vendor is open to all offers on his TJALK, please do not hesitate to contact me.
For further information and appointments to view, please call Graham or Magali WHARMBY, your Boatshed broker at Boatshed Bourgogne.
