Dutch Motor Aak converted to retain the appearance of a cargo barge but with large opening windows to give a cool and airy interior and a good view on the outside world. The owners have continually improved the hull, engine and interior over the last nine years. This boat is ready to cruise with a very complete inventory, and can be lived on year round. It is easy to handle and economical to run.
