Linssen Grand Sturdy 450 AC Variotop:Your variable sunroof provides freedom as a high-quality folding roof above the driving position that moves forwards and backwards at the touch of a button

Our test boat, the Linssen Grand Sturdy 450 AC Variotop, is the perfect choice for those who like to have their helm station in the open air, but also want to be well protected against wind, rain and cold in bad weather.

This is because it has a high-quality convertible top above the driver's platform, which can be retracted or extended as the mood takes you. It almost goes without saying that this all works electrically.

As you can quickly see from the photos, we had great weather on the day of the test and therefore went out on the water. The test area was the Meuse and the surrounding lake landscape near Maasbracht, where the shipyard has its workshops.

It all starts at the shipyard's own harbour, where some of the boat handovers for the new owners take place....
