Houseboat Nicols Estivale Sixto 2022 50hp
Nicol's SIXTO, part of the " Estivale " generation. With its 3 spacious cabins, it is ideal for 3 couples, or 2 couples and 2 children. It has a spacious aft terrace, flush with the living area (access via a large sliding bay window. The rear terrace has a table and chairs for outdoor dining, and is equipped with an awning if you need protection from the sun's rays! Also at the back is the classic gate that allows wide access from a jetty to the terrace. But the Estivale range has its own "plus": two side doors, moulded into the hull, have been added to facilitate side descent of the boat. Very practical. Access to the roof deck is obtained via a pre-shaped staircase + handrail (for comfort and safety). The upper deck offers a second "folding" jet-ski style cockpit to facilitate its use sitting on the bench. At the front of the boat, a second small terrace in the hull offers a bench and a round table to enjoy an unobstructed view of the river while cruising.... Finally, there is extensive equipment on board that ensures great comfort: the forward cabin with 'master' bedroom has direct access to a private bathroom (sink/shower, toilets); another large shower room is accessible from the corridor in front of the port and starboard cabins, with full shower unit and electric toilet. In the living area: TV screen, radio with CD/MP3 player. In the kitchen: great comfort with 220-litre fridge and freezer, 4-burner stove/grill and plenty of storage space.... Not to mention all the other great amenities, such as the 220-volt shore power supply, bathing ladder, deck shower, BOW and STERN propeller etc. HOLLAND Known for windmills, cheese, tulips and of course the rivers, the Netherlands is the perfect destination for a boating holiday! Captain a Nicols boat and discover picturesque towns and villages, art and history museums and the beautiful 'National Park Biesbosch'. The natural waters are great for swimming and, with bikes on board, you can of course enjoy the national pastime: cycling! Holland is also the ultimate experience for fishing enthusiasts! KERDRIEL is a great location to have a Nicols base, as the waters are not only calm and ideal for beginners to sail, they are also perfect for swimming and fishing. Surrounding the waterways is beautiful flora and fauna, including the national park "De Biesbosch" which is one of the largest in the Netherlands. The city of Gouda is famous for its tasty cheese, but even if you do not like cheese, we recommend a visit to explore the charming old town with its Sint-Lanskerk (famous for its impressive stained-glass windows), markets and bustling streets. Amsterdam is the largest city in the Netherlands and is criss-crossed by a network of canals. Visit museums for art (including Van Gogh), history and science and take time to just stroll the colourful streets for shops, restaurants, cafés and, of course, the famous Red Light District. Beautiful places to visit are certainly also Dordrecht, Heusden, Utrecht,'s-Hertogenbosch, Geertruidenberg, Gorinchem, Woudrichem, Gouda, Leerdam, Mook (Golden Ham). One of the many itineraries on offer will lead you and your crew to Maastricht - the city known as the origin of the European Union. Explore the many cultural and historical buildings, including the city walls and tower, before shopping in the streets lined with trendy designer shops. With its large forward cabin equipped with numerous storage lockers and direct access to a private bathroom, it will delight boaters looking for a spacious and comfortable interior. It has a pleasant aft terrace, with table and chairs for outdoor dining. At floor-level with the saloon with access through a wide sliding door. The rear terrace is equipped with an awning if you need protection from the sun's rays! Also at the back is the classic gate allowing wide access from a jetty to the terrace. But the Estivale range has its own "plus": two side doors, moulded into the hull, have been added to facilitate side descent of the boat. Very practical, especially when docking "wildly"!

Everything was great. All information was correct
The Sixto is a top boat! I think the price is a bit high for this time of year.
We rented the boat for a long weekend. Despite the bad weather we really enjoyed it. We were received super friendly and very hospitable. The explanation of the boat was good and included a practice ride to increase confidence before hitting the road. The boat is comfortable and fully equipped. The area is nice for sailing. Definitely recommended.
