Houseboat New Amsterdam

Dutchie's New Amsterdam was inspired by the oldest houseboat in the Netherlands, De Zwerver. Self-taught artist, writer, architect and explorer Wijnand Otto Jan Nieuwenkamp build it in 1900, the year of his marriage. Nieuwenkamp and his family lived, worked and exhibited on the boat while traveling through the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany for the next 10 years.

The houseboat's exterior is completely renovated, but its greatest treasure is inside: a beautifully decorated historic building, the original interior a mix of exotic woods, old tiles, decorations, and carvings as those by Nieuwenkamp himself.

Houseboat New Amsterdam has a living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom with a separate toilet, hallway, and two outdoor decks. Unlike the original boat, all these are on one floor. This had to be done because of the water level and camera angle in Second Life.
