SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for couples or families This 2015 Nicols is an ideal choice if you're looking for a comfortable motor boat holiday on inland waterways, think French canals and rivers rather than coastal sailing. The two-cabin layout works well for two couples or a family of up to six, though sleeping six means tight quarters.

Solid comfort features The bow thruster is genuinely useful for tight locks and mooring in narrow canals, and heating means you're not restricted to summer-only trips. Standard amenities like a fridge, TV, and DVD keep everyone comfortable during longer cruising days, especially helpful when weather forces a quieter day onboard.

Reasonable value proposition At this size and year, the €3,500 deposit suggests a mid-range charter price, fair for a well-equipped inland cruiser where fuel and mooring fees are typically modest compared to seagoing yachts. You're paying for convenience and comfort rather than performance.

Caveat: landlocked adventure This is strictly an inland waterways boat, so if you're flying long-haul expecting to explore coastal scenery or anchor in turquoise bays, this isn't your vessel. It shines on France's canal network or similar systems, but that's a very different holiday from open-water cruising.

The marina & destination

Based at Le Somail, in Le Somail, France. Cruiser Premium 4/6 Pers. is operated by Riverly.

Allée de la Glacière

Why this is a great starting point

Le Somail sits on the Canal du Midi, making it ideal for a leisurely first week exploring France's most famous waterway; you can reach Carcassonne (about 50km east) or cruise west towards Toulouse and the Atlantic approaches. The canal offers lock-free, protected cruising at walking pace, perfect for charterers new to French waters or wanting to combine sailing with inland exploration. Week 1 typically involves mastering lock procedures and enjoying the region's wine villages and countryside rather than open-water sailing.

Frequently asked questions
Can Cruiser Premium 4/6 Pers. be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Cruiser Premium 4/6 Pers. bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter Cruiser Premium 4/6 Pers.?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
