Linssen presents the Grand Sturdy 550 AC Variotop Linssen stands for steel boats in the upper class. The shipyard has been building the famous "Made in the Netherlands" steel displacement boats in a wide variety of lengths for almost 75 years. The latest flagship

According to the shipyard, the Linssen Grand Sturdy 550 AC Variotop offers: "Unrivalled luxury and comfort. The interior can be finished in the latest INERO style, which is also used in other Linssen yachts." The elegant style is characterised by light and dark contrasts, and the interior can be selected to suit different tastes. The area below deck offers cosy cabins, fully equipped bathrooms and a light-flooded saloon with galley.

The Linssen Variotop

One of the special features is, of course, the Variotop, which is enthroned above the driver's platform. In bad weather, you can sit under the closed roof, protected and dry, while in good weather you can let the sun and fresh air in through the open roof. Linssen comments: "This makes the Grand Sturdy 550 AC Variotop the ideal yacht for every season." The 16.45 m x 4.90 m yacht is equipped with modern technology, making it easy to manoeuvre and drive.
