    I see under Trumpy Yachts for sale that a few 61' houseboat style have a master and one guest while some have a master and a port and starboard guest rooms . My question is, could a 2 stateroom yacht be reconfigured to a 3 stateroom yacht ? Would there be structural problem/issue or just moving/building new bulkheads and moving a head ? I'am sure it would be costly .

    Thanks,

    Edward

    Hello Edwardc1949, Welcome to YachtForums. If you have enough money to throw at a refit - anything is certainly possible. There is currently a good inventory of Trumpy Houseboats available on the market with various layouts. There seem to be galley up and down, two aft staterooms and three, and one with galley down, two staterooms aft and a dining salon. Lots to look at and consider.

    I agree with Eric, but would advise you wait for one that meets you requirements, and is in good shape. Refit/redesign will always be more expensive than paying more for a boat that is already redone.

    Best,
