Hired this September 2005 for 4 people, boat was a little scruffy and looked like it was nearing time, if not for a refit then at least for some serious tidying, carpets and upholstery especialy, toilets are ridiculas in that both WC's are set under the ledge formed by the side decks making sitting on them or standing at them very, very difficult and uncomfortable. The only seating area is around a fixed table at the front of the boat so to sit on the seating you have to try and shuffle around the sofa under the table, this is ridiculous in a 42' boat especialy considering there must be about 10" of empty space between the engine room and the sofa. More bad news on the handling, having never hired this type of boat before I cant say whether it is the model or just Rapide but although low speed manouvering is fairly simple once moving the boat takes on a mind of its own and demands constant correction, any hint of cross curent or wind will have you sawing at the wheel and makeing your way sideways up the river. Moan over.
