"Great Pontoons" is a stylish, modern look, dual-deck houseboat offering generous living and entertaining spaces, great fittings, and off-grid capability. With sleeping for eight, multiple indoor and outdoor leisure areas, and manageable handling on the water, it is perfectly suited for families, holidaymakers, or live-aboard, it's turnkey ready, and ticks a lot of boxes.
Stepping aboard, you are met with secure gates and fencing, generous fore and aft decking, extensive storage compartments, and convenient front pump-out points. Inside, the saloon is tastefully furnished and features a portside helm equipped with Admiral Series Hydrive hydraulic steering, Yamaha and VDO instrumentation, a stereo system, and Navman UHF radio. A bench-seat dining area sits aft beside a spacious U-shaped kitchen, while opposite is a comfortable chaise sofa/bed lounge. The interior is finished with vinyl plank flooring and offers gas heating, Actron reverse-cycle air conditioning, and Bonaire Navigator evaporative cooling for comfort year-round.
The kitchen is well-appointed, with ample laminate bench space, cupboards, drawers, and a dual sink, supported by a Dometic gas/electric fridge-freezer, Chef stove/oven/grill, and all necessary chattels for meal preparation.
Accommodation includes two double bedrooms, both able to accommodate queen beds if desired, and a bunk room, all with built-in robes and storage. The primary stern bedroom features direct deck access through glass doors and a Toshiba wall-mounted TV, allowing you to wake each morning to changing river views.
The bathroom includes a moulded shower, marine flushing toilet, and vanity cupboard.
At the stern, a hard-covered deck leads to the marine-carpeted swim platform and to the stairs accessing the upper sundeck. This entertainment area includes a built-in table over the motor with five bar stools, a wall-mounted TV, a Weber BBQ with a dedicated railing shelf, multiple storage cabinets including under-stair storage, with a portable fridge, house electrics, and pumps all easily accessible here.
The upper sundeck features marine carpet, bench-seats storage, an outdoor dining setting, and a Vergola shade roof, creating a fantastic space to entertain and enjoy elevated river views.
The boat is supported by a 240V off-grid electrical system capable of running all onboard appliances, which includes a Kings 3,000W power inverter, Victron Smart Solar Charger 100/50, a 300Ah Lithium LifePo4 house battery, and dual solar panels.
Propulsion is provided by a 2001 Yamaha 50hp four-stroke outboard with only 968 hours of use, last serviced in August 2023 by Slipstream Marine. A 200-litre fuel tank ensures a comfortable cruising range.
The vessel underwent an out-of-water inspection and insurance risk assessment in August 2023 by Marine Surveyor Bill La Vars, during which the pontoons were pressure-tested, machine cleaned, and coated with three layers of Marine International Intertuf. All electrical, gas, and EPA wastewater compliances are in place.
This well-maintained and much-loved houseboat is suitable for weekends, holidays, or full-time living. It is offered as a walk-in, walk-out sale. Located in the lower Murray River region. *Note: a new mooring/berth may be required, although the current berth is available for purchase directly from the owner for $85,000. Seize the chance for your river lifestyle.
Expressions of interest are invited with
Inspections by appointment only.
