Your Motor Sailer

Your sailing ship is an affectionately restored two masted motor yacht. It was modernized in 2001 in conformity with the requirements of bicycle cruising.

8 cabins below deck are at the guests’ disposal, all equipped with upper and lower beds. The shared bathrooms are accessed off the hallway.

There is ample room for all guests in the spacious saloon to have your meals, to regenerate or to spend some time with new friends.
