Built in 1925/26 in Groningen Holland by the famous boat yard Kempers.   Konsekwent has had an easy life we think due to her very incredible undamaged hull. We believe she was used for grain haulage till she was decommissioned and converted in to a live aboard.

Brought to the UK in 2005, she has been lovingly restored by her current owner and now been awarded a 7 year survey this summer. Robert Bingham a well know international surveyor is happy to discuss her condition and the survey to anyone who would like to buy this beautiful example of an unspoiled original Luxmotor. 
Boat Safety certificate till May 2017
She is now ready for someone to add their stamp internally. A full inventory of everything being sold with her is available here 

Due to my ill health and upcoming surgery, I must part with her as I can no longer live aboard, hence she has been priced to sell. 

Please view all the wonderful work we have completed in the last 18 months on the attached blog
