Bye Bye Merlot! :-(

Well we have had Merlot for two years and loved every minute we have spent on her but it is time to move on. We have found and fell in love with another boat for sale in Ely. She is a 1911 Dutch Barge which has just been restored. We spoke with the boatyard yesterday and looked her over yesterday afternoon and she is beautiful. We discussed it over a bottle of wine last night and have decieded to go for it. They will take Merlot in part ex and we will sort the rest out next Monday when we pick her up!! Here are some pics of the outside and will post the inside when we go back later today :-)

Here is a link to the website. http://www.the-boat-yard.co.uk/forsale16.htm

Got to go now and plan our 'move'!

  1. Very nice, and will be a lot bigger! A friend in York used to live on one and the living room was massive!
