Fontaine of Bordeaux is a 67' Motor Yacht occupying an exceptional residential mooring in Limehouse Basin which is in itself an Olympic Games hub in 2012. She was commissioned by a French millionaire and many of the original quality fittings are still in place giving the boat a certain cachet. Nearby there is a Gordon Ramsay restaurant in the upmarket and trendy Narrow Street and Canary Wharf is within 10 minutes walking distance. This is a peaceful. highly desirable location; a marina in central London with easy access to the River Thames, Docklands and several important business areas. There is potential for an on board cafe and office and rentals during the Olympics. The cost of the mooring is £700 per month. The mooring is available by separate negotiation increasing the price of the boat to £325,000.

In August 2003 Fontaine underwent a major re-fit inside and out as well as new stabilisers being fitted - a full survey report is available on request. At this time the boat cruised extensively in Europe with the owners spending 6 months on board.

She has 8 berths in 6 cabins and is constructed of mahogany planked on oak frames and features teak decks with an aluminium superstructure.There are 3 heads and 2 showers plus an en suite bathroom off the main stateroom. The latter features an enormous mahogany bed with matching dressing table and cupboard. A walk in dressing area has been added alongside the bathroom. The cabin has heating and air conditioning. The saloon has been totally refurbished with new curtains, brass fittings and a simulated wood burning stove.

The engines are two 350 BHP, G&M Detroit 6/71 3,500 litres diesel. There is a liferaft for 7 people.
