1910 Bakdek Klassiek Motorjacht 11.30, EUR 15,500

The Flush deck motor yacht “Kaatje” exudes classic lines and character, despite visible deferred maintenance. With her spacious open cockpit and forepeak, she offers a wonderful experience on the water as well as shelter in bad weather. She is fitted with a powerful Volvo Penta diesel engine, delivering excellent maneuverability and sufficient propulsion power. The equipment on board is simple and functional. Inside, there is an electric toilet, a refrigerator and in the bow, a V-berth that can easily be converted into a sleeping area. For the one who cook on board, there is a loose galley unit with gas burner, which is designed and permitted for outdoor use only, ideal for cooking in the cockpit. Although the paintwork is in need of maintenance and some steelwork will also require repair or renewal, Kaatje provides an excellent base for restoration. Her hull shows beautiful lines and her classic appearance deserves to be respectfully and skillfully restored to her former glory. Kaatje is not an average yacht, but a vessel for the enthusiast, someone who sees her value through the patina. With a clear course and a love for the craft, this motor yacht can shine again as navigable heritage on rivers, lakes, and canals.
