The Pénichette Evolution is the modern interpretation of the popular Pénichette houseboats from the charter company Locaboat Holidays. The boat is ideal for a small family or for up to four adults. Due to the compact dimensions of 9.50 meters in length and 3.18 meters in width, the boat is very clear and easy to use even for houseboat beginners. This is supported by the innovative control technology using a joystick. This is used for navigation when driving slowly, e.g. when mooring. For normal driving, the steering wheel and bow and stern thrusters are available on an inside and an outside steering position. With a depth of one meter, a view of the depths of the water should always be part of the journey.
The spacious interior can be variably divided into two salons. A sliding door right next to the wet room serves for this purpose (not explicitly mentioned by Frank in the video). Both salons have sofas that can easily be converted into beds. The modern design of the boat, which has been in the fleet since 2018, stands out pleasantly from other boats and impresses with its clear lines. The fact that the advantage of double use of the sofa as a place to sleep is bought at the price of the disadvantage of converting the bed in the morning is certainly a matter of taste. As a result, storage space also has to be found for the bedding. In addition, the lack of a circumferential gangway means that we always have to walk through the saloon from the stern to the bow of the boat. Certainly feasible in summer, but a bit cumbersome with wet shoes in rainy weather. On the other hand, there is the optimal exploitation of the space across the entire width of the boat and the almost stepless room concept of the living area.
By default, there is currently one bike on board, but more can be booked as well.
An economical diesel generator (3L / h) supplies the consumers on board with electricity and drives the 11 kW electric motor as well as the bow and stern thrusters. This guarantees a smooth journey and eliminates the need for gas, which is normally used on board as an energy source for heating, ovens and refrigerators.
