SailChecker Expert View
Perfect for groups This 2018 Nicols is a solid choice for larger parties exploring European inland waterways, think families or friend groups of 8-10 looking to share costs. The four cabins give everyone reasonable privacy, and onboard essentials like air conditioning, heating, and a dishwasher make extended cruising genuinely comfortable rather than roughing it.
Standout features The bow thruster and generator are genuine highlights for river cruising, handling tight locks and mooring situations smoothly whilst keeping you self-sufficient away from shore power. The air-con and heating combo means you're not restricted to summer-only trips, which opens up spring and autumn options when rivers are less crowded.
Good value proposition At this spec and size, the €4,500 deposit is reasonable and suggests competitive weekly rates for what you're getting. You're paying for reliable comfort on rivers rather than flashy extras, straightforward, honest value for groups splitting the cost.
One practical note Since Riverly operates primarily on French and European rivers, check your specific charter base location before booking, some bases involve lengthy transfers from major international airports, which matters when you're coordinating multiple guests arriving from different countries.

The marina & destination
Based at Le Somail, in Le Somail, France. Cruiser Premium+ 8/10 Pers. is operated by Riverly.
Allée de la Glacière
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.
