Training in a houseboat

Advertisement

We have (finally) started training again. In fact, we've never had such a good training room at home as we do now in the houseboat. The room on the lower deck is spacious, and we now have a large area with exercise mats on the floor and a TV for exercise programmes in front of it. Absolutely perfect actually!

Old houseboat - modern interior

In the beginning we thought we would choose a more old-fashioned style of interior design in the houseboat, but it has become more and more modern ... Right now we are fixing the clothing storage in our large "walk-in-closet", which is really just one end of our large room on the lower deck.

The marina in winter splendour

It snows and snows, and we get to experience houseboat life in winter weather. Really cosy actually! These pictures are from yesterday afternoon, when it snowed a little more moderately than today and when the sun also looked out cautiously. If you are wondering, we have no problem with the heat in the boat, even though the upstairs is uninsulated and several windows are only single glazed.

There is a houseboat for sale here in Pampas marina. It is the boat Tua that is for sale. This houseboat is even more of a boat than ours, so to speak. It has a working engine, so it's not just a home - it can also be driven.

Gradually, it feels like we are getting more and more finished with what we intended to do in the houseboat during the autumn. This weekend we finished painting the lower deck, and it's really nice to be done with that.

Fire extinguishers in place

We now have two new fire extinguishers, a small black one by the front door and a large white one on the lower deck. You hope that you will never have to use them, but it feels important to have them just in case. And since they are going to hang there anyway, it doesn't matter if they are a little nicer.

Carpets in the houseboat

We have now installed carpet in the boiler room (our crawl-in closet) and in the part of the lower deck that we use as a walk-in closet (our walk-in closet). We started on the boiler room this week, and last night the carpet in the larger room was installed.

Wardrobe in the boiler room

We've been working in the boiler room every night, and now our (extra) wardrobe is almost complete! On the right side we have built shoe shelves, and on the left side we have built shelves with drawers from Granit. We now store everything from tablecloths and fur hats to workout gear and jewellery.

Construction chaos and sunshine

It's Sunday and we're building and building. The irony is that when you renovate to make it look nice, it gets so terribly messy in the meantime. Right now we have stuff just everywhere. But I'm sure it will be fine in the end!

New wallpaper and new tiles in the kitchen

Advertisement

Now that we have heat in the boat, we can start focusing on some other things! We have wallpapered and started tiling in the kitchen. We've never been fond of white (even though we know you HAVE to like white), so the white walls are going away. We have wallpapered with a black and silver wallpaper with a high-rise motif.
