The Luxe Motor Dutch Barge, HeliOx, located in Reading, Berkshire, UK, offers a unique live-aboard lifestyle with a rich history and modern amenities. Originally constructed in 1911 in the Netherlands for creosote transportation, HeliOx was transformed in 2007 into a luxurious live-aboard barge with a new steel superstructure completed in 2008. With continuous updates like state-of-the-art solar power and a water filtration system, HeliOx is equipped for off-grid living. Notable features include an outdoor living space on the aft deck, a custom interior with a designer's touch, and a fully equipped galley. The barge is powered by a DAF engine and boasts a spacious master cabin and saloon. HeliOx has journeyed through Europe's major rivers and canals, offering a blend of cruising capability and the comfort of an urban apartment on any vibrant waterfront in cities like Paris and Amsterdam.
HeliOx is more than a Dutch Barge. She offers a live aboard lifestyle that is not found on most barges. The original steel hull was constructed in the Netherlands in 1911. She was used for hauling creosote throughout the Netherlands at the height of her working life. HeliOx’s new life as a live aboard luxury Luxemotor began in 2007 when she was commissioned by the previous owners to be fitted with a new steel superstructure. The design and fabrication were carried out to a very high standard in the Netherlands and completed in 2008.
Updates have been made continuously over the past 10 years to present to you today this stunning home for some very special people. HeliOx has been modified with state-of-the-art solar power and a water filtration system that allows for off grid living and mooring in pristine areas of beauty and privacy that are not afforded to most boats on the canals and rivers in Europe today.
The interior of HeliOx has been embellished with a designer’s flare and must be seen to be appreciated.
The absolute best feature of HeliOx is the outdoor living space on the aft deck. The very large wheelhouse has double doors opening out to the luxurious living area on the aft deck where most of your hours of daylight will be spent in the cruising season. HeliOx has cruised all the major rivers and canals in Europe with ease, including the historic and beautiful Canal du Midi. From Bordeaux to Stasbourg, Paris to Avignon, Holland, Germany, Belgium and Luxemburg and crossed the English Channel and onto the River Thames. She has been a delight to captain and live aboard. As our European experience comes to a close, her new owners are out there waiting for their own “la vie est belle” adventure. HeliOx is designed for luxury cruising but would afford anyone luxurious apartment living on a permanent mooring in any vibrant urban European city such as Paris, London, Amsterdam, Berlin etc.
