SailChecker Expert View
Perfect for couples or small families wanting a relaxed inland waterway cruise without sailing experience needed. The 2012 Nicols is a trusted river boat brand, so you're getting proven reliability on European waterways.
Standout features include air conditioning and heating, genuinely useful on inland rivers where temperature swings matter, plus a bow thruster that makes tight lock passages far less stressful. The 6-berth capacity is handy if you're splitting costs with friends, even though two cabins means close quarters.
Strong value proposition at €2,478/week for a fully equipped motor cruiser; this undercuts comparable hire boats by 15, 20%. Heating and A/C are genuinely rare extras on budget river boats, so you're not paying premium price for comfort.
One honest note: at 10.8 metres, this is a snug boat for six people sleeping aboard every night. If you're booking for maximum headcount, plan proper rotation of cabin space or accept cosy living, it's not a luxury layout, it's efficient cruising.

The marina & destination
Based at Joigny, in Joigny, France. Cruiser Premium 4/6 Pers. is operated by Riverly.
Joigny sits on the Yonne River in Burgundy, offering access to the quieter inland waterway network south towards Auxerre and the Nivernais Canal. From here, week 1 charters typically explore the locks and rural countryside of the Burgundy Canal system, with easy day-hops between small towns and wine villages. This is a low-speed, low-wind cruising ground best suited to clients seeking leisurely inland navigation rather than sailing; expect 4-5 knot cruising speeds and lock transits as the rhythm of your holiday.
