The Pénichette Evolution is a houseboat based on a steel displacement vessel and has been available as a charter boat in southern Finland since this year

Together with the charter company Locaboat, Linssen developed a new type of houseboat based on a steel displacement vessel last year: the Pénichette Evolution.

The new product from the Dutch shipyard is now also available as a regular model with the series designation Dutch Sturdy 310, and one is already in charter operation.

The Finnish company Saimaacharter, whose base is in Savonlinna on the extensive Saimaa lake system in the south of the country, has been offering a DS 310 since the start of the season.

A generator powers the electric drive, bow and stern thrusters, as well as the rest of the on-board system - even appliances such as the induction cooker or microwave work at all times.

The cosy two-cabin boat (two berths each) is steered classically or conveniently using a joystick. The weekly prices are between 2250 and 3690 euros.

Christian Tiedt was born in Hamburg in 1975, but grew up in the northern suburbs of the city - except for numerous visits to the harbor, North Sea and Baltic Sea, but without direct access to water sports for a long time. His first adventures then took place on dry land: With the classics from Chichester, Slocum and Co. After completing his vocational training, his studies finally gave him the opportunity (in terms of time) to get active on the water - and to obtain the relevant licenses. First with cruising and then, when he joined BOOTE in 2004, with motorboats of all kinds. In the meantime, Christian has been able to get to know almost all of Europe (and some more distant destinations) on his own keel and prefers to share his adventures and experiences as head of the travel department for YACHT and BOOTE in cruise reports.
