Description

For sale on her St Katherine Docks mooring in central London, 'Fochintulla' is a Coaster 49 (15m) Dutch style barge, designed by Nick Branson and constructed by UK builders RLL Boats in 2007, as an extremely high quality, luxury, full time liveaboard and a fully equipped coastal traveller.

The current owners have upgraded the domestic, galley and electrical systems during their ownership and there is little doubt she has been carefully and enthusiastically maintained since their acquisition in 2011.

Refitted and painted 2025, this vessel has just arrived, following a cruise from Scotland, at London's prestigious St. Kathrine Docks and is available for inspection by appointment.

Fochintulla' is fitted out internally to a very high standard accommodating 5 or potentially 6 adults in a comfortable and spacious environment. She has all the charm of a typical Dutch influenced canal cruiser but with a keel and internally she has an 'English cottage' feel with light oak panelling and coordinated timber joinery that produces an ambience of calm and tranquillity.

The dominant aft positioned 'bridge' wheelhouse is a particular feature but equally her interior has been laid out for comfortable living aboard.



Viewing of this exceptional boat is essential to appreciate the quality, intelligence and exceptional specification of her design and please contact our London broker to discuss her in more detail and to schedule your viewing onboard.





FORWARD CABIN has twin 'V' berths with hanging lockers to port and shelving to starboard with additional storage under each of the berths.

HEADS compartment to starboard with full height standing shower, toilet, sink and heated towel rail.

The upholsteries compliment the interior style of the vessel in the traditional sense but with a modernistic appeal.
