Unique and well-maintained converted icebreaker from 1896

Are you dreaming of an exceptional living experience on the water? This 29-meter-long converted icebreaker offers something truly special. Originally built as an icebreaker and canal boat in the Göta Canal (Gothenburg-Stockholm), the boat exudes character and strength. It has also been used as an expedition boat for diving and exploring the seas around Sweden, Denmark, Estonia, and Finland year-round. The boat has been meticulously and thoroughly converted into a luxurious houseboat and Airbnb – a perfect blend of raw maritime roots and modern comfort. The sturdy steel construction provides a calm and secure experience, even in challenging conditions, and the boat's history as a working vessel creates an atmosphere that cannot be replicated in new construction.

Stylish and spacious below deck

Inside, the boat has been transformed into an exclusive residence focusing on craftsmanship and top-notch materials. Handcrafted carpentry in elm wood and generous use of solid timber create a warm and elegant ambiance, accentuated by light materials in the cabins and natural light from the many windows in the living room and kitchen. The spacious layout features multiple separate sleeping areas, great social spaces, a large sauna with water views, and modern amenities throughout – including a ventilation system and ample storage space, making the boat ideal for year-round living, exclusive vacation home, or expedition vessel.

Historic charm and maritime experience

This converted icebreaker is not just a home but a unique place in maritime history. The icebreaker has undergone several transformations, including becoming a tugboat, followed by a tanker, before finally being converted into a private leisure craft. The full history of the boat is passed on to its future owner. The icebreaker is perfect for the discerning buyer looking for something beyond the ordinary – a unique lifestyle with a view of the horizon without compromising on comfort and aesthetics. The boat has been carefully maintained and is in excellent condition.

Sailable luxury

With its weight, length, and cruising speed of 7 knots, this converted icebreaker is a seaworthy and reliable vessel for both short and long trips on the water. Fuel consumption is 1 liter per nautical mile, making it highly economical for extended voyages.

Here is a rare opportunity to acquire a residence that combines maritime experiences with luxury. The current boat berth can be taken over through an application process at a cost of 4,400 SEK per month excluding electricity.
