Lotus is an Elegant River Cruiser Circa 1906

A fully restored, classic timber cruiser. Circa 1906

On a first encounter with Lotus, your eyes are immediately drawn to her sleek, elegant lines. From her proud stem through to the graceful counter stern, this vessel epitomises unmatched style from earlier times.

It is not possible to list all her attributes so we will endeavor to highlight the essentials and leave ample, pleasant surprises for those having a genuine interest to explore during their inspection.

Lotus can best be described as an "absolute head turner" and would draw attention wherever her home berth is located. She would sit comfortably on the Swan River or in Sanctuary Cove, and even at Pittwater, Lotus would have no equal as such is her uniqueness. At home on the Murray, she has no peers and has won awards while still under restoration.

Boarding Lotus and entering the main saloon is to be transported back in time, the experience is almost overwhelming.

One is presented with a cornucopia of exotic hardwoods, perfectly melded with vintage brass lamps, rich velvet drapes and plush microfibre upholstery.

Cut glass decanters, monogramed crockery, double glazed windows, internal glass paneled doors; spectacular cabinetry and craftmanship throughout is only the beginning.

Lotus is a vintage vessel, however cleverly concealed are the creature comforts found in modern boats.
Circuitry and switching, central heating, countless storage spaces all quietly reside in more secret compartments than an Edwardian writing deck.

Offering six berths, a generous bathroom, modern galley, an afterdeck with wicker chairs and sun umbrella, she is a very accommodating vessel both extended or day cruising.

Propulsion is by a 50HP Volvo of low hours.

Expressions of interest invited, and inspection
is strictly by appointment only.
