Broker's Comments

NICOLS canal and river cruiser for sale in France.

Boatshed Midi Canal is pleased to offer this Nicols 1100 Confort built in 1999, equipped with a 42Hp VETUS engine.

A great family boat with convivial day areas separate fore and aft cabins each with own ensuite and a central saloon with galley on starboard side and saloon table to port and the interior helm in the centre of the boat.

Also very practical with 3 different accesses to the outside, I really like the forward access on the port side to access the foredeck, no need to walk on the side deck, you can walk through this well protected corridor to lead to the forward table on the foredeck, safe if you have young children or a pet.

The aft deck is accessible by the swim platform with stairs to the aft deck and saloon. Another access door midships to starboard giving easy access when moored bank side.

An ideal family boat with several outdoor spaces to enjoy and a great layout to accommodate up to 7 people.

The boat is sold with all the items on board: bedding, cutlery, chairs, spares for heads, basic tool kit, 4 folding chairs, 2 portable fans, clothes drying rack and vacuum cleaner, 240V.

For more information or to organise a visit, please contact, Graham, your local broker at Boatshed Midicanals.
