We offer this ship for sale, which until now served as a passenger vessel and, thanks to its very solid underwater construction and many fitted spaces, is ideal to continue using as a houseboat or as a second residence. It offers a unique opportunity to own a place of your own by the water, and that at a particularly attractive price!

Launched in 1925 and built by the renowned Dutch shipyard Scheepswerf De Hoop (Leiden, The Netherlands), this characterful vessel was professionally operated for passenger transport for many years. In April 2025, she was permanently withdrawn from service for economic reasons: the required renewal of the superstructure was not financially viable.

Importantly:

✔️ Hull structure (casco) in good and intact condition
✔️ Engine present and usable
✔️ Strong professional construction
✔️ Significant interior volume and commercial potential

This presents an exceptional opportunity for investors, developers, or private buyers seeking a robust historic vessel for conversion.
