Which yacht suits you? How to choose the right Linssen for your cruising holiday

The first question we ask almost every guest is not “when would you like to sail?” but “who with?”. Whether you are heading off as a couple for a romantic weekend, exploring the Randmeren as two couples, or looking for the most luxurious feeling on board with a group: every yacht in our fleet is built with a different kind of journey in mind. DOJO, Idefix and Vita Lenta are all Linssen yachts, yet they feel very different the moment you step on board. Here we help you choose.

For two, without compromise: DOJO

DOJO is our cosiest yacht, and that is exactly why couples love her most. Everything on board is designed for being close together: the Alcantara cushions in the saloon, the comfortable bed in the forward cabin, and on mild evenings the electric panoramic sliding roof that opens in seconds, so you carry on as a (half) convertible. When it gets cooler, the Webasto hot-air heating comes on. And have you always wanted to sail through the canals of Utrecht? Thanks to her low air draught, DOJO is the only yacht that can. If you would still like to bring a guest, an extra berth is easily made up in the saloon.

For two couples who want to travel together, each with their own space: Idefix

Idefix is our yacht for those who want to travel together while each having a place of their own. The layout is two by two: two full bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, at either end of the yacht. That way every day begins and ends at your own pace, with a relaxed morning routine for everyone. On board the cabrio canopy can be partly opened, creating a wonderfully open, convertible-like feeling on a sunny afternoon. If someone extra is travelling with you, the Linssen Easy Sleep Convert System easily creates a third double bed. And for those who would rather not leave their bikes at home: Idefix is the only yacht in our fleet with bike racks at the bow.

For those seeking the full luxury experience: Vita Lenta

Vita Lenta is the newest addition to our fleet and feels it: more spacious with 6 permanent berths, quieter thanks to the modern Yanmar engine, and with that little bit of extra finish of the 40.1 version from Linssen Yachts. Leather upholstery, luxurious curtains and a complete insect screen system make your stay on board especially comfortable, even when the weather outside is less summery. Thanks to the larger diesel tank and the navigation and VHF equipment on board, a trip onto the IJsselmeer is within reach in fine weather and with enough experience, something Vita Lenta is well equipped for. Please note that boating experience is required for this yacht.

Still not sure?

That is completely normal. Most of our guests have never sailed a Linssen yacht before their first cruising holiday on the Randmeren, and yet everyone feels at home at the helm within a few minutes. Feel free to call or email us, tell us who is coming along and what you have in mind for your trip, and we are happy to help. That is exactly why we do the handover personally on the jetty in Harderwijk, rather than simply handing you a key. Curious which yacht suits your cruising holiday on the Randmeren best? Discover DOJO, Idefix and Vita Lenta on our charter pages and choose the yacht that suits your group, or contact us for personal advice.
