Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Perfect for relaxed cruisers. The Europa E.500 suits groups or families wanting a laid-back motorboat experience without sailing skills, ideal if you want to focus on scenery and comfort rather than yacht handling. At 11.9 metres with three cabins sleeping up to 8, it's roomy enough for two couples or a small family without feeling cramped.
Solid practical features. The bow thruster is a genuine asset for tighter moorings, and the bimini provides essential sun shelter on inland waterways (where this boat typically operates). Heating, refrigerator, and electric toilet cover your daily comfort well, though don't expect luxury finishes on a 2012 build.
Good value proposition. The €3,500 deposit is reasonable for a boat this size, and motorboats generally cost less to charter than comparable sailing yachts, plus no licence needed in most European waterway systems. Running costs tend to be predictable, which appeals to budget-conscious charterers.
One realistic caveat: We don't have the base location or daily rate here, which matters hugely, a week on the Danube plays very differently from the French Riviera in terms of scenery, logistics, and value. Check fuel consumption figures before booking, as eight-person occupancy can push operating costs up noticeably on a motor vessel.

Loosdrecht is a freshwater lake marina in the heart of the Dutch inland waterway network, ideal for a relaxed first week exploring the Vecht River valley and connected lake system without exposure to coastal weather. From here you can cruise south to Utrecht and Amsterdam within a day, or north through the Gooi lakes toward the IJsselmeer; the shallow, protected waters and lock-free passages between lakes suit both novice helmsfolk and those seeking sheltered cruising. Week one typically involves gentle daysails of 2 to 4 hours between lake villages, with ample opportunity to moor and explore historic towns on foot.
