Choosing your boat
We offer a wide range of boats without a license. They are available for 2 to 12 people and include 1 to 6 cabins. They measure from 7 to 15 meters.
To navigate, there must be at least 2 passengers on board (1 adult and another passenger at least 16 years old). You must respect the maximum passenger capacity for which the boat is approved, and in no case can you be more than 12 people on board (regardless of the age of the crew members).
Your boat will have one to six cabins, plus the saloon that can be converted if necessary. Think about who will sleep where. Avoid, if you can, having passengers sleep in the saloon unless it is for a short stay. If you want more comfort, you can obviously take an extra cabin.
With double beds or single beds, and even bunk beds for the little sailors, we have the solution to suit all crews! Some beds are very small, others very comfortable.
Take a good look at the boat plan and the layout of the beds.
The dimensions of the boat will give you the most objective and important information to make your choice. Compare the length of the boats and especially their width. A few more decimeters in width greatly change the comfort of the boat.
La Peniche F is the largest boat in our fleet and can accommodate 12 passengers thanks to its 6 cabins and pleasant living space. Le Magnifique, the Tarpon 49 QP, the Nicols Octo and the Penichette 1500 FB are among the reliable options we offer for a large crew.
If there are only two of you, we also have suitable boats, the Nicols Duo, the Cirrus A, the Penichette® 935 W or the Triton 860 Fly are good examples.
And if you want the best of all the boats, the one with all the superlatives, then ask us for the America 50 Excellence!
Are there more than 12 of you? Don't panic! Take several boats and go flotilla cruising on the canals. Fun and good times guaranteed!
Tell us your expectations, and we will find the boat you are looking for.
