Choose your boat The right choice of licence-free boat is crucial to ensuring you have a great holiday. The pleasure boat you rent will be your home for the duration of your waterway cruise. All our houseboats offer standard minimum comforts such as: pressurised hot and cold water, shower, WC, kitchen, heating. The detail and quantity of these vary from boat to boat. The sleeping capacity often determines your choice of boat and the capacity is hence indicated by the number written before the word 'people'. For example: 6/8 + 1 PEOPLE: the first number is for the sleeping capacity without using the lounge. The second number is the sleeping capacity using the lounge. Then the third number is for an additional berth for a child under 6 (it is often a folding berth in a cabin). It is never recommended to use the maximum sleeping capacity. By doing so you reduce the comfort of all aboard and the equipment (fridge, showers, toilets) is generally not sufficient for one week.
