When ordering our barge, we took along this spec list  and went through item by item, obviously each persons requirements will differ from the above. If you would like a copy of this excel file sent to you, so you can amend it according to your own requirements, just sent me an email request. 

Note most boxes should contain a tick, but with some browsers it defaults to a P, or another letter / symbol.
