Yacht charter in Hennebont · Motortjalk Bies — Bies (1975)
Description of Simon's houseboat
Houseboat Motortjalk Bies Bies 52hp
Antares is a classic Friesland Motortjalk that is perfect for cruising with family or a group of friends. In total, we can sleep 8, with a double cabin forward, a cabin with 2 double beds aft and two spacious berths in the main cabin. The boat is easy to maneuver, with a bow thruster, and no license or permit is required. It can therefore be easily sailed with 2 or 4 people (with more space on board!) In the main cabin there is a large table that can seat 8 people, a kitchen area with 4 gas rings, a sink and a fridge, and a toilet with sink and hand shower. The navigation station is in the cockpit, there is plenty of room to relax in the cockpit and on the decks. Antares is based in the pretty village of St Nicolas des Eaux on the Blavet. The Blavet is a magnificent canalized river but unexploited offering views of the amazing countryside, wildlife and the villages and towns that lie along its shores. The river from Pontivy to Lochrist / Hennebont is perfect for a week cruising. The connection to the Nantes Brest canal in Pontivy allows an extended cruise on the river waters of Brittany.

Offered by Simon
We live on the River Blavet in Brittany and operate a boating holiday business on the waterways of Brittany. Originally an offshore racing sailor, I have become enchanted by the natural beauty and holiday opportunities here in the Morbihan. Our boats come from Holland and are perfectly adapted for cruising in the Brittany waters in some comfort. They are equipped with bow thrusters to make them easy to handle. Brittany Boating is a small family run operation and we aim to ensure that our clients make the most of their holiday. We can help with route planning, logistics and advice on activities, stopovers to ensure your experience is a good one, whether you are looking for an active holiday or a relaxing one.
