Part of the fun of a waterways holiday is that you&#8217;ll get to explore a new route every year and also learn how to handle a different\u00a0<strong>canal boat<\/strong>\u00a0And here\u2019s a brand-new boat that you&#8217;re going to love\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The year has got off to an elegant start: from five\u00a0<strong>Locaboat<\/strong>\u00a0bases in Burgundy (Joigny and Corbigny on the Bourgogne Nivernais side; Scey-sur-Sa\u00f4ne and Saint-L\u00e9ger sur Dheune on the Bourgogne Sa\u00f4ne side), you can now cruise in style on a yacht!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a title=\"Linssen boat\" href=\"\/en\/boats\/linssen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Linssen Grand Sturdy 34.9<\/a>, can carry up to six people. But the best way to enjoy it is with a crew of four. That way you avoid crowding in the shared areas, the kitchen and the warm and welcoming saloon, which has a settee and table, as well as a desk and navigation area. Practical details: the comfy settee turns into a wide double bed, quickly and easily. The other two cabins, at the fore and aft of the\u00a0<strong>boat<\/strong>, have a double bed and lots of storage space: a good wardrobe for your clothes and a chest of drawers for everything else. They also have a bathroom area with toilets, wash-basin and a large, separate shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This arrangement means everyone can sail in privacy and comfort on this 10.7 m x 3.4 m boat, making your cruise peaceful and hassle-free. By the way, when it comes to problem-free cruising, you might like to know that the Linssen is very simple to handle. It&#8217;s fitted with a bow-thruster and a stern-thruster \u2013 for the uninitiated, that&#8217;s the ultimate in assisted steering for boats!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The wheelhouse on the upper deck is built entirely of teak and fitted with armchairs and a table, with a pretty bimini top where the skipper and his crew can shelter from the rain &#8230; or more likely, from the brilliant sunshine!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Part of the fun of a waterways holiday is that you&#8217;ll get to explore a new route every year and also learn how to handle a different\u00a0canal boat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19428,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[203],"tags":[342],"class_list":["post-19839","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-linssen"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19839","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19839"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19839\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19840,"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19839\/revisions\/19840"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19428"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19839"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19839"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.riverly.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19839"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
