- I owned the Dutchess in the early 90's. My husband was a contractor at the time and we started to fix it up. He put in new copper water lines and removed the origional water heater which weighed hundreds of pounds. It was almost impossible to get this out of the lower part of the boat. It had 2 beautiful buda engines that he had running. The forward bedroom was haunted. We slept in there and our dog would not even go down there. It was cold and quite errie even with the fireplace. There were ghosts. We eventually sold her. She was amazing.
