Tjalk for sale (power)

A River/Canal Boat Tjalk is a Dutch Barge or motorised sailing vessel. Typically, a Tjalk is a large, spacious, flat-bottomed barge with two masts, a notch in the bow, two wheelhouses, and a flat deck running from bow to stern. The Tjalk is well suited for inland waterways and can navigate shallow waterways, canals, and river beds. Its relatively slow speed makes it ideal for extended pleasure cruising. The Tjalk can be well equipped for secure luxury travel, providing a covered wheelhouse with a living and sleeping area, a fully appointed kitchen, a bathroom, and a host of comforts. The Tjalk is a delight to sail and makes an excellent boat for holiday cruising on the many waterways of Holland and Europe.
