The Pénichette 1120 is a houseboat from Locaboat. Founded in 1977 at Joigny in Burgundy. It specialises in the Penichette - a steel canal cruiser styled after a working barge, with a wheelhouse that lowers to clear bridges - and hires its own fleet across Europe. The hull measures about 11.2 metres. It sleeps up to 6.
Adriavela lists 17 boats of this model. They were built between 1992 and 2001, so the layout and the equipment differ from one hull to the next. The hulls here carry 2 cabins and 6 berths.
They leave from bases up and down the coast, Argens-Minervois, Scey-sur-Saone and Loosdrecht among them. A 7-day charter starts at €1,449, which is €207 a day.
