History & Conversion Dritan has been lovingly converted to an exceptionally high standard during 20 years of current ownership. Dritan originally served on the Humber and was built by Dunstans of Thorne for Hodgsons Tannery in 1945, although she was launched in 1946. All works commissioned and overseen by current owners (a former mechanical engineer) to the highest engineering standards, in a sympathetic style commensurate with Dritan’s heritage. She boasts her original Gardner 4LW engine. Dritan made a once in a lifetime voyage from the Trent and the Humber around the Eas... read more

Maria Advert Maria was built in Holland in the 1930’s as a cargo carrier, a Kagenar barge. In the 1970’s she was converted into a live-aboard. We found her in Holland in 2012 and brought her back to UK for a full refit. We’ve been live aboard boaters for over 20 years now and have made sure she is built to last. The hull has been over-plated, regularly maintained and blackened, she is insulted thoroughly and has just had a full freshen up. She is a great boat for someone to enjoy and gets plenty of positive comments from passersby. Maria has a living / dining area... read more

HOI POLLOI is a very well maintained and tastefully appointed 60’ x 12’06” widebeam. She was built in 2021 by Collingwood Boat Builders, and is moored on the Thames at Hammersmith. She is moored and used primarily as a houseboat, meaning it has had very little use of the main engine and bowthruster that is fitted. The engine, a Canaline 60 serviced in April 2023, is under the deckboards, and navigation is assisted by the 95kgf bowthruster. The covered stern deck offers a lovely social area with comfy seats around. The gas locker is on the starboard side and offers another s... read more
