Broker's Comments

This is a fine example of the classic Humber Barge.

Originally constructed as a ketch-rigged barge, she has worked the local waters all her life carrying dry goods along the Humber. For many years, in the hands of her current owner, a former bargee. She was Part 1 Registered and still retains her original "blue book".

He has fitted her out extensively, with ample, spacious accommodation, but still requiring some finishing off, hence she is still something of a project. Exterior paintwork has all just been re-done.

Her engine and gear are in good condition and appears seaworthy.
