Description
Humber Mariner is an ex-tanker barge built in 1963 by the Yorkshire Dry Dock Co. The vessel has a substantial steel hull and classic barge lines, with six large tanks providing exceptional internal volume for redevelopment. The tanks are approximately 70 cubic metres each and could be opened up to form a spacious open-plan living space, with scope to build further accommodation or deck areas.
A Gardner 8L3B engine, a renowned and robust marine engine, remains on board and could potentially be restored to working order. The vessel is situated on a secure residential mooring with easy access to local amenities and transport links.
