Waterdog is a historic Humber barge which has been transformed from a cargo barge to a comfortable 2 bedroom live aboard, on a fully residential mooring in Woodbridge, Suffolk. She has a fully insulated (spray foam), spacious modern interior with central heating, and over 2.3m headroom throughout, except the second bedroom that has 1.9m headroom. The mooring is bow on to a town quay with full facilities - shore power, dedicated water supply, phone and broadband. Woodbridge station is a 3-minute walk away with trains to Ipswich & connections to London, or Lowestoft going north. The town centre is an easy 5-minute walk with shops, cafes and pubs. We started with Waterdog in Goole, East Yorkshire, cruised France and Belgium for 9 years, and came to Suffolk at the end of 2016. Waterdog was dry docked in 2017 and the whole hull was grit blasted and painted with 2-pack epoxy. She is perfectly kitted out as a full- or part-time home, but equally, fully mobile and ready for cruising with the hull survey valid until 2027 and a current ES-TRIN (European safety certificate).
