Open Inspection Saturday 28th from 10am till 12 noon call now for location and an appointment.
 
It will be hard to go past this "Maiden of the River, Kanyaka1", a well-crafted houseboat that perfectly combines form, function, and comfort. This ready to cruise vessel is offered for genuine sale on a walk-in, walk-out basis, so seize the opportunity to own a beautifully presented and very well-maintained traditional pontoon houseboat that is sure to impress from the first glance.
 
Step aboard Kanyaka and you’ll immediately notice the attention to detail, from the covered fore deck and safety handrails to the front waste points and stunning Kauri decking throughout. Every feature speaks of thoughtful design and care; you won’t even need to lift a paintbrush.
 
Inside, the open-plan living area feels light, bright, and inviting. The starboard helm is equipped with full Mercury and VDO instrumentation, Hydrive hydraulic steering, RayMarine depth finder, Navman, and a Kenwood CD stereo. A comfortable corner lounge with under-seat storage sits aft, while opposite, a six-seater dining area provides the perfect space for entertaining. Year-round comfort is ensured with Fujitsu reverse-cycle air conditioning, a Paloma gas floor heater, and a TV for entertainment.
 
The mid-ship portside kitchen is nicely appointed and functional, offering ample cupboard, drawer, and bench space. It features a Chef stove, grill, and oven, Electrolux gas fridge/freezer, laminate bench tops, with an attractive mini-orb backing.
 
A central companionway leads through to the three double bedrooms, each carpeted and fitted with Siroco fans for comfort. The primary bedroom includes generous cupboard and robe storage, and a walk around bed. The bathroom is thoughtfully designed with a moulded shower, corner vanity, shave cabinet, and a marine flushing toilet.
 
The fully covered stern deck continues the theme of easy living and relaxation, complete with a Samsung TV, 12V fan, shade blinds, and a hot and cold sink. From here, step onto the large swim platform with a wind-out shade awning and swim ladder, ideal for cooling off or simply taking in the river views.
 
Propulsion is provided by a 2022 Mercury 60Hp EFI Command Thrust four-stroke outboard motor showing only 326 hours of use, maintained by Nick from Waikerie Honda. With a 390L onboard fuel tank, Kanyaka offers an impressive cruising range, perfect for exploring the river at your leisure.
 
Off-grid living is supported by a PowerTek 500W pure sine wave inverter, six Trojan 225amp/hr T-105 house batteries, a Manson charge controller, two 160W solar panels, and a Honda EU30is 3KVA generator backup. Added features include a Rinnai16 instant gas hot water system, Quell carbon monoxide alarm, Waeco portable fridge, and much more.
 
Last slipped in October 2024 at the Foxtale Slipway Morgan, Kanyaka had its pontoons machine-cleaned and recoated with International Intertuf marine paint. A fresh insurance risk assessment was completed and passed by Bill La Vars, marine surveyor. The vessel has Electrical, Gas, and EPA wastewater compliances also registered until 29/08/2026. The current mooring is available upon application and approval.
 
This is truly a turnkey opportunity; an invitation to secure a lifestyle your family will treasure forever. Located in the stunning Mid-Murray River region, Kanyaka represents a wonderful alternative to a traditional river shack, offering comfort, freedom, and adventure on the water.
