It looks nice, you will always get cracks cos the wood expands and shrinks.... we get that on our boat too 😊 and it depends how long the boat it's been left without heating..... Good luck guy's 👍

Good luck! I love Dutch barges! Excited for you! Also, check the “dog box” for leaks.

Hey guys, didn’t see the same excitement from you for this one like the last. It does look very nice and the extra space really shows. In fact it’s absolutely massive. You got to make sure it’s the right one for you. Take care for now Colin & Rachel 💖

The cracks could be expansion cracks. That many could indicate bad fitting during construction.

I'm desperately saving to buy a Dutch barge that's at least 60ft but I'm concerned about limitations on where you can go. Someone said it'll be fine around most of the network but I've seen some pretty low bridges and tight channels, especially the aquaducts. I want space but I also want to cruise a lot.

Join the Dutch Barge Association, check out the forum , it has every topic you’ll need to know, from size to bridge clearance, our initial thoughts was a sixty foot barge , however we’ve learned that anything under 50ft saves you money on mooring fees , good luck, thanks for your comment, Tony Sarah x
