Gallinago was built and designed for her current owners who originally operated her as a travelling hotel boat. No expense was spared during the build and her specification is nothing short of remarkable.
She is equipped with two engines, several fuel tanks, two bow thrusters, two generators, three calorifiers, and two stainless steel water tanks.
Accommodation is equally impressive, with three bedrooms (each featuring a vanity washbasin), a bathroom with washbasin and pump-out toilet, a utility area with additional cassette toilet and washbasin, an office area, saloon, galley and a superb walk-through engine room beneath the wheelhouse.
Onboard appliances include a fridge, freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer, microwave and a slimline dishwasher.
Cabin heating is by a beautiful kerosene range (also used for cooking), along with a diesel boiler.
The three calorifiers supply hot water heated via both engines, diesel boiler, range, or immersion.
This brochure cannot fully capture the true splendour of Gallinago. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the quality and unique character of this exceptional vessel.
A residential mooring may be available, subject to separate agreement and approval by the marina.
