History
MEDWAY PRINCESS was built in 1946 and is believed to have started out as a fuel barge, or craft for planes that were unable to make it home after a mission, where they would land by this vessel and be refueled.
The vessel was converted from a naval craft to a houseboat and is almost refurbished outside having had all of the steel work treated and painted.
