Broker's Comments
Residential barge for sale in France. Boatshed Midi Canals is pleased to offer this 2004 Branson barge for sale.
Built to order for the previous owner as a full time liveaboard cruising vessel they lived aboard to 2020 when we sold her to the present owner who has lived aboard ever since.
A really solid, comfortable full time cruising home well equipped for long periods off grid and Cat C homologation so able to take you coastal too in the right conditions.
Our vendor is aware that a bit of catching up is to be done with outside woodwork and paintwork (see our photos) hence the very attractive asking price for such a capable, quality vessel.
For more information and appointments to view please contact Graham, your local broker at Boatshed Midi Canals.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
