Specifications
Historic Péniche from 1922 for Sale – Authentic Steel Riverboat with Rich Family History
This characterful péniche, built in 1922 at the renowned Langerbrugge shipyard on the Leie, offers a unique opportunity for enthusiasts of historical vessels. With a length of 14.13 meters and a width of 4.37 meters, this steel riverboat is a tangible piece of Belgian sailing heritage. The hull is made of riveted steel, a construction technique typical of the early 20th century. The flat bottom and tiller steering make the ship suitable for leisurely trips on inland waters.
Technical Specifications and Equipment
The ship is equipped with an inboard diesel engine from the brand Peugeot, type Indenor. This engine is operational and powered via a 12V electrical system. Steering is done from inside via a tiller, and the ship has a single rudder. For anchoring activities, there is a manual anchor winch, with an anchor attached to a chain.
On deck, various equipment is present, including fenders, lines, a swim ladder, and a guardrail. For safety, an electric bilge pump is installed. The boat is registered under a Belgian flag certificate, and VAT has been paid. Documentation such as the "certificat de sondage" from 2017 and historical construction and maintenance records are available.
Interior and Living Comfort
The interior space is functionally arranged and accommodates four people, with two fixed berths and two additional berths. The accommodation includes a salon with an inside steering position, a separate bedroom, a bathroom with a shower and hot water, and a fully equipped kitchen. The kitchen features a stove, microwave, refrigerator (220V/gas), and a gas-fired boiler for hot water. The dining area offers ample space for cozy meals on board.
Historical Value and Family Story
This péniche has been owned by the same family since 1976 and has since served as a holiday home, houseboat, and recreational vessel. For nearly five decades, the ship has been cherished by four generations, leading to a richly documented history. A photo dossier is available from the original construction, as well as reports of significant maintenance and restoration work. The last time the ship was taken out of the water for maintenance and antifouling was in 2017.
The boat has primarily been used on inland waters and has served various purposes such as weekend stays, vacations, and day trips. The current owner describes the ship as a place full of memories, where summers were spent with family and friends, and where the rhythm of the water set the pace of life.
Potential and Target Audience
This historic péniche is ideally suited for lovers of classic ships, collectors of nautical heritage, or people looking for a characterful floating residence. Thanks to the spacious layout and available amenities, the ship offers possibilities for both permanent residence and recreational use. The combination of authentic construction style and functional living space makes it an interesting project for those who value history and craftsmanship.
