Would book a bigger boat next time as it was a bit small as one passenger was over six foot.
Would be better if the was at least one 240volt outlet that works of a inverter will not in port.

We did a canal boat trip with Le Boat which originated in Migennes. Whilst we had to change our plans mid trip due to the high levels of water in the river Yonne, the Migennes Le Boat team were fantastic in helping and advising us where to go. We ended up spending a portion of our time on the canal de Bourgogne and enjoyed the whole experience. The boat we had (Elegance) was well equipped and comfortable for our trip. I would thoroughly recommend doing a canal boat trip with Le Boat, especially out of Migennes.

We plotted peak tulip day over many years and scheduled that for the middle day. Our provided maps were correctly annotated. We subscribe to Waterkaart and Waterkaart Live, since Nieuwpoort, Belgium. There were new updates the morning of departure, which we downloaded over LeBoat Wifi. With two full weeks and enough activites planned for four, we were busy the entire time. LeBoat suggested marinas were ideally located..

This was our third Le Boat trip in an Elegance, so we were quite well prepared for her handling and abilities. This came in handy at some of the weirs on the Baise River. Her lovely, and well laid out upper deck were, as always, our perch for the day. We had one small issue, which Le Boat sent out a tech to resolve rather quickly. Everything in this boat was spit spot and tidy. We opted for the deck cushions again, which was clutch, as we ran some days very early and ate up there many evenings. She’s a wonderful boat. We booked an Elegance for Holland, next.

We ran for one week up through Diiksmuide to Yepres which was, at times emotional. We went to WWW1 museums and sites. We took the tram to the coast to do the Atlantic Wall museum. We sat down with Bieke a second time to prepare for our week in Bruges and Ghent. The food was fabulous. The beer and brewery tours were all enjoyable. We went to chocolate museums, a lace museum, a Belgian fry museum, and many, many churches. The bikes were a really good, and much used option. We ate three meals a day on-board, and the fourth one out. The maps that were provided for the canals and the cities were also most appreciated. Sadly, there was a dirth of fondu items on Elegance, but fortunately, at 3 Euro a set, they were quickly obtained and left for future travelers. There were two nice big frying pans in the galley, so crepes were available at all times! The team at leBoat really did a great job!

The boat was great, the main living area was spacious with two separate seating / dining areas. The patio door to the back and good steps onto the roof top patio / driving position.

The kitchen is compact but perfectly workable. Each bedroom has it’s own bathroom, which is good.

The canal route its self if really nice, with interesting lochs and smaller canal sections joining them together. All in all a really nice holiday.
