Description

A rare liveaboard of true craftsmanship
Some boats are manufactured. Young Jonesy was built plate by plate, joint by joint, by people who
cared how she would feel to live aboard on a still winter morning as much as how she would look on
the water. The result is a Dutch-style wide beam barge with the presence of a classic and the
comfort of a modern home: generous, warm, beautifully finished, and ready to step aboard and live.
Completed in 2024 and superbly appointed throughout, she offers genuine year-round liveaboard
comfort with the space and stability that only a full wide beam Dutch design can deliver. Whether
you are leaving the bricks-and-mortar life behind or looking for the forever home-on-water you have
been picturing for years, this is a vessel that rewards a closer look.
