What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
38 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.
Who it suits: This is a cosy choice for couples or two friends seeking a relaxed motorboat getaway on inland waterways, not an ocean-going charter. The single cabin and intimate setup make it perfect for those prioritizing simplicity over space.
Standout features: The bow thruster is genuinely useful for tight canal maneuvers, and at 10.5 meters it's nimble enough to access waterways larger yachts can't reach. Basic creature comforts like refrigeration and an electric toilet keep things comfortable for short trips.
Value consideration: At €1,500 deposit with 1988 build, pricing reflects a classic, well-worn vessel rather than a modern charter boat, you're paying for character and access to unique routes, not luxury. That's fair if canal cruising appeals to you, though expect authentic "vintage" rather than contemporary amenities.
One honest note: With no base location listed in your data, I can't advise on airport logistics or how convenient this is to reach from major hubs, worth confirming directly with Canal Evasion whether it's positioned somewhere with decent international access. Inland waterway boats suit European river systems, so check the actual cruising grounds match what you're after.
