Zee Otter

Zee Otter

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.
