Solvay 76

Solvay 76, registration NY3085F, was built in 1931 at Villeneuve la Garenne.  All information on this page was taken from Vagus-Vagrant.fr unless otherwise specified.

Some notes by Sylviane Parent:

Solvay 76 was put up for sale in 1977 when Yvon Van-Hoeylandt transferred to the Solvay 64. It was purchased by Mr. Jacques L. who named it Coriandre and converted it into a houseboat, bringing it to the port of Beaucaire (30), where it remains today. For the moment, according to my research, it's one of the two former Solvays that has had only one owner since its sale by Solvay.

Solvay 76 at Saint-Agnan on the Ardennes:



Four Solvays at Heer-Agimont (Belgian Meuse), but the first one on the left is not identified; the next three are 115, 118 and 76 the furthest away:


Here she is below Laneuveville écluse:



This was taken at Beuvry but with no date:



Solvay 76 at Saint-Mihiel in the 1960s:



This undated one is in an écluse in the Dombasle valley:



This is towards the end of the 1950s:



When sold by Solvay, Solvay 76 was renamed Coriandre.

This is Coriandre in the port de plaisance at Beaucaire at quai Général de Gaulle in June 2009:
