Register with Boatshed to see 58 extra photos of this Humber Barge 60ft .Boatshed Medway are delighted to present this Humber Keel Barge which used to be the famous Greenwich Bookboat. The Bookboat sailed into Greenwich in the summer of 1978. She then become a favorite destination for children for the next 20-odd years. The Bookboat was the only specialist childrens bookshop south of the river and probably the only floating childrens bookshop in the world. And for its size it packed quite a punch - by 1984 it was carrying over 7,000 titles! She sadly had to close in the early 90's due to Health & Safety laws and a few years later she was purchased by the current owners who converted her into the 2 bed liveaboard she is today. This lovely vessel is stacked in history and makes a very good sized 2 bedroom home on the water. The residential mooring she currently occupies can be taken over subject to the marina's approval. The current owners are paying around 300 per month. She is located close to the historic town of Rochester in Kent. There is plenty of parking and this barge benefits from her own private terrace adjacent. Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered. These boat details are subject to contract.This Humber Barge 60ft has been personally photographed and viewed by Suzzanne Mcdonald of Boatshed Medway.
