Lightship 93 is one of the most iconic vessels currently in London and is now for sale through Boatshed London.

For the last few years, she has been used as an events venue and photographic studio which has hosted some of the most famous names from the music and acting world.

Built in 1938 in riveted steel, she is 134 feet long (just over 40 meters) with a beam of 25 feet. The ship retired from lighthouse service in 2004.

The boat has lots of potential to be continued in her current use as a commercial operation; she could be converted into a unique houseboat or developed into a spectacular AirBnB business. There are six cabins in total. The crew cabins have been left in their original state whilst there is a cabin in the wheelhouse and a large double bedroom towards the stern.

Unfortunately the Lightship can not stay in her current location. Any potential buyer must have a plan as to where they will moor her.

These boat details are subject to contract.
