This lovely replica Dutch barge, built in the UK by the renowned boat builder Piper Boats Ltd, is fully equipped ready for immediate cruising and enjoyment and can be sold in the UK or EU

Antares is in good condition and comes with a 3 month support warranty from Piper boats. The batteries appear to be in good condition but no warranty can be applied (new in 2018). Everything else has been serviced by Piper and we will stand behind the boat.

She is 18.2m long and 3.96m wide and easily cruised UK rivers, canals and coastal waters, before crossing the Channel to explore the European continental waterways. Her streamlined hull shape together with Hardwood fold down double glazed wheelhouse with new cover brings admiring glances and compliments wherever she goes.

A practical and sociable layout makes for comfort and easy entertaining whatever the season.
