BLUR is a single owner, private use (never chartered) 2013 Bavaria Vision 46 yacht outfitted for comfortable and safe extended cruising offered in the three cabin, two head layout.

The unique cockpit design with offset companionway allows for a large port cockpit table that can be manually lowered and converted into a day/lounging bed while the dual helms have ergonomic seating. All winches and major lines are in easy reach and the central halyard winch makes single handing a breeze. The bow thruster makes docking, even in tricky situations a breeze. The bathing platform is integrated into the stern providing convenient access to the water.

With the fixed hull ports, the overhead fixed and opening hatches, and the deck ports, the Vision 46 is bright and inviting inside.The asymmetrical companionway create a spacious pantry.

High-end finishing in combination with a beautifully-designed colour concept lend this yacht its luxurious character.

ACCOMMODATION:
The Vision 46 has space for living and storage space for everything you like to have with you when sailing. The salon has an L-shaped dinette to starboard with two extra individual seats and a table that unfolds for dinner or folds up for cocktails. A straight settee is to port and with the cushions removed, the middle portion lifts up to form a small nav desk. The standard head is to starboard with a separate stall shower that can double as a wet locker.

BLUR has three cabins and two bathrooms, one of which is forward in the large master stateroom. There is an island queen berth, lots of stowage below and hanging space. The twin berth aft cabin is to port with access through the galley. The third double cabin is to starboard with access via the second bathroom.

Complete Hull rebuild

 

A Classic English Motor-barge converted to a luxury home on a rare and beautiful 99 year leased mooring on The Isle of Wight.Part of our National Heritage, this historic Thames Racing Barge has been lovingly restored regardless of cost, with a complete hull rebuild over anew external framework to the very highest standards and given a new lease of life as a luxury houseboat on its own unique, well developed and unusually long 30m (100 foot) * 12m (40 foot of shore),mooring in the famously beautiful elite holiday destination of Bembridge Harbour on the Isle of Wight.

Go overseas on a ferry without a passport to a beautiful historic offshore Island where the locals are friendly and speak English!

Restored to a very high standard, including newly doubled hull in 10 mm steel, this vessel has qualified for entry on the National Historic Ships Register (number 3709) .

An historic widebeam British vintage Thames Spritsail trading barge ,originally built to a special ‘barge match‘ radical racing yacht design by Lynton Hope in 1897 by the proprietor of The London and Rochester Trading Barge Company at Deptford, specifically to compete in the Queen‘s Jubilee Barge Match Races of that year where she came second.

The vessel was modified to become a commercial carrier some three years later, but was found unsuitable for sailing trade, de–rigged, and converted to motor barge circa 1912

The hull shape remains uniquely distinctive from other steel barges of the era, having a fine entry bow, completely curved vertical sides, pronounced sheer, and a ‘steamer stern‘. As a motor barge she was reputed to be a success, being fast and stable, believed to have been used finally as a passenger ferry.
