Description

Introducing the classic Dutch Barge, ARI, a stunning vessel that embodies the charm of 1921 commercial heritage and craftsmanship. With an overall length of 14 meters, this steel-hulled beauty boasts a displacement hull, ensuring stability on the water. Powered by a 120 hp MAN diesel engine, ARI features a center inboard configuration with direct shaft drive, providing predictable handling characteristics for your cruising adventures. Accommodations are thoughtfully designed with two inviting cabins and a well-appointed heads compartment, making it perfect for comfortable getaways or use as a pied-à-terre or full time liveaboard. The vessel's classic aesthetic is complemented by modern features, ensuring a delightful experience on board. She is also comparatively short in length for a barge, adding to her appeal with better berthing availability, lower mooring fees and the ability to use her single handed with confidence, as the current owner has done. Whether you're exploring the serene inland waterways or plan to enjoy making her into your home, ARI promises to deliver a memorable maritime journey. Embrace the elegance and history of this remarkable barge, and set sail into new horizons.
