What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
30 years old. Yachts of this age statistically need more in-charter maintenance attention, ask the operator for the recent service log when you enquire, and budget a small contingency for niggles (a stuck winch, a tired bilge pump). On a well-cared-for boat this is usually just part of the rhythm of charter, on a neglected one, it can spoil a week.
Perfect for couples This 9-metre motor boat is ideal for two people wanting a relaxed inland waterway cruise, though it sleeps up to 7 if you're comfortable with tight quarters. The flybridge is a genuine bonus for enjoying the French countryside in good weather.
Practical comfort features You get heating (essential for spring and autumn cruising), plus a coffee maker and ice maker, small touches that matter on a longer trip. For a 1996 build, the specification suggests decent maintenance and thought for guest comfort.
Budget-friendly option At €3,000 deposit, this is accessible pricing for a multi-day inland charter. Running costs on a smaller motor boat are typically lower than larger vessels, making it genuinely good value if you're cruising French rivers rather than the coast.
One heads-up This is an older boat (27+ years), so while the basics are solid, you'll want to ask Anjou Navigation directly about recent mechanical servicing and any quirks. Inland waterway boats see gentler use than coastal vessels, but age still matters, confirm the engine and systems are reliable before committing.
