Honestly, I liked this boat more than some of the £ million + boats I've seen on the channel. Very simple, practical, well proportioned, modest and just really homely. There's something about it.

I agree. That's because the multi million yachts are people showing off their wealth and social status. This is practical, comfortable and as Nick would say, usable.

I totally agree with all what you say, there is something about this yacht, almost 1950’s I love it I’m just 1/2 million pound short.

@@markjones1595 I can afford the boat but just need to work out how to pay for the fuel to go anywhere meaningful, in this day and age! Shame that!
Finally a tour of this boat. It looks great. You definitely need to do more live aboard or long term cruising boats.
They interior as massive. I never would have thought there would be so much. And the day head slash separate showers a great idea. Thank you Nick. Always a pleasure to watch.

thats the nice part of displacement hull, you trade-in speed for more room
WOW!!! I *never* thought I would see a 45-foot boat that would hold my family. There's five of us and I've been looking at the 55-70' models because everything I see that's smaller than that only has two cabins, or else the whole space is so cramped that you can't use the rooms they do have. This one could perfectly feasibly be a comfortable liveaboard home for us with a couple of minor modifications of the kind that are always customized from one owner to the next. And it's ten feet smaller than the next biggest model I've seen that would work. I am incredibly impressed. We don't typically eat at table, we just sit in the living room, so I would probably drop that dinette altogether in order to expand the galley and provide serious cold storage and a dishwasher, and similarly cut out the walk-in closet in order to fit a real bathtub into the master, and just have the drawers and storage under the bed for our clothes. But those are just preference, the way we use a boat instead of the way somebody else does. I've been looking at full displacement trawlers, the kind that typically do have a lot of space per foot, but I've seen nothing that fits so much into 45'. This is a really impressive little boat!
A few years back my family and I rented a Linssen 40AC i Germany for two weeks. Basically same boat as this one but a just a little smaller. Ever since a Linssen has been on my wishlist. One lives very comfortably in one of these, and you learn to relax, slow down and start living! The noise created by a Linssen, or rather lack thereof, must be experienced to be believed. It is a motorboat but it makes less noice than a sailboat. And quality of the build? This is Mercedes S class qualitycontrol on stereoids! I did visit the yard and I was absolutely convinced. Theese people not only know how to build boats, but it apparent that theese craftsmen put a lot of pride in their work. Linssen boats are exelent value for money, and they, as a lot of steel boats keep their value over time. To the extent a boat is a good investment ( they usually are not! ) a Linssen will be the exeption.
You had me at Dutch Boat - but the STEEL construction kept me watching. I'm "looking" for a live aboard myself. ROOM is the one thing boats under 50 feet lack. But those clever, wooden shoed folk in the nether lands have found space where none was thought to be. And comfort. And long range actual STOWAGE. I'm guessing they make fewer that one million of these each year - so the waiting list has a waiting list. Well, as my gran used to say - that worth having is worth waiting for. But Nan - I'm now 75...
Impressive amount of space for a 45' boat, 3 cabins, 2 good sized heads, separate shower for guests, lovely layout and materials, great engine room. What's not to like. Just need the Lotto numbers to come in now. Great walkthrough as always Nick.
Finally, a PROPER ;) little ship! Dutch craftmanship and cosy silent steelhull!
Love that the smaller twin bed cabin has so much natural light in it. The separate shower is nice too. Great tour Nick, thanks.
I find videos about these smaller boats much more enjoyable than the huge, multi-million dollar yachts. Boats like these are more realistic in terms of what most of us will be able to afford someday. This just looks like something you could cal home on the water.
HA! Finally 😊 The Dutch build great steel boats, and Linssen is one of the best. They're not speed boats, but great touring and live-aboard owner-operated boats. They're not cheap, but they will last your lifetime and that of your children's as well (and great re-sale value). They're proper offshore boats (winds to 40 knots and significant seas to 13 feet), but also 'fold down' to scale practically any river (and under any bridge) in mainland Europe. They're vastly popular here, you see them everywhere. The space inside, and the headroom, is second to none in this size boat. Personally, I prefer the Variotop models, they offer even more space and amenities, especially the 500AC Variotop. I also prefer the 'proper boat blue' hull colour LOL, but that's the beauty of Linssen, they'll give do whatever you wish, inside and out. Great tour as always, Nick 😊 I'd love to see you do a tour on the Variodeck one of these days.

I told nick, I guess, 2 years ago: Pls do a Linssen Yacht! yes and here it is. Next: varioTop ! 🤪
Brilliant layout. 2 massive berths and even a third children's cabin. Very clever use of space for a 45 footer. Great video.
Great boat ! The only thing it doesn't have is "that little ship feeling" .
Hi Nick. A seaworthy sturdy steel cruiser. Offshore, separate showers, 3 cabins sleeps 6 on a 45ft. Awesome walkthrough tour thanks 😊
Yes! I could disappear on this boat for months at a time! Love it! So relaxing and freeing! Great boat, great tour. Thank you and have a great week!
This channel just shows that you can make anything interesting with the appropriate host. I just can’t get enough of these videos
Linssen are a lovely steel cruising yacht built for inland and ocean water, I was lucky enough to pilot one of their boats and they're so pleasant to drive rather than the faster sports boats. Another great tour nick.
I have watched this 3 times now. I have a little dream of living on a boat, i think this is the one i would choose.
This is a beautiful and classy boat. It's capabilities and practicality make it so much better.
I spent some time on a Matthews 42 with a very similar layout but minus the separate shower stall and can attest to just how livable this style of layout is. The split cabin design gives a nice amount of privacy when needed and we (3 adults) never felt crowded. We spent about 5 months cruising up and down the Intracoastal Waterway and from experience 8 knots is all you need. Lovely tour Nick, brings back some nice memories.
Very well designed and thought out yacht, I'm impressed. Always a delight to watch. Thank you again, Nick.
I love the layout and large number of windows in these boats. I could spend months tootling up and down Europe's rivers on one of these.
Anyone who knows anything about boats knows these are top quality boats that last for ever. So cool and stylish next to super yachts

Thank you Nick, great presentation of a lovely cruiser. I could imagine spending a very long time on her, super practical with the added piece of mind having a steel hull and twin propulsion. Heaven.

Great stuff Nick, something quite different again. Thanks for showing.
Lovely and comfy but easily made elegant with the right accessories. Love that it had so many get away from each other spaces for those on long or extended outings.
You are right what a great boat to get lost on for a few weeks or months. Love the bright, modern look of the interior. Thanks as always Nick!
Utterly superb. Remind me of the lovely Brooms. As already mentioned, it great to have a tour of a practice live aboard boat 👍
And thank you Nick for this very nice and elegant show of this Linssen Grand Sturdy 45 AC Intero a beautiful yacht with nice lines where you can go on long time vacation or even life in it continuously, there interior is nice and cozy like home. Thanks again Nick for the show I can hardly wait what you will bring us next week
Clever use of space, as all aft cabin boats are, and I could definitely imagine cruising down a river or perhaps the Norfolk broads on this! Thanks Nick.
What a lovely boat. Not a speedster but long stay off shore. Wonderful. Good job Nick.
Always a pleasure watching your reviews--thank you!

Dang, I am actually starting to think of getting one of these.. finally a boat I can get behind. Not fancy fairyland just practical enjoy life type of boat.. Thanks for this one Nick..
What a wonderful and practical little ship. Would suit me perfectly.
I could not find anything worth nit picking. Very nice, well planned out. You can see the quality in this boat. The interior is also finely crafted.
For the money this is a lot of boat. The engine room was perfect for your daily maintenance great video again Nick.
There was me thinking there was a lot of wasted space on that boat, then nick shows the second cabin up front and the separate toilet/shower. Brilliant
I like the roping detail around the outside of the boat. It’s very classy!
Oh, Nick. Look at that Fleming in the background.....class!
Awesome. A boat with some character. Great tour. It's so nice having the helm out of the living area. Frees up so much space.
Great tour . Love the classic "trawler" yacht styling . Amazing space & great layout . Love all the windows & light . Mark (Toronto) ⚓
It wouldn't be an Aquaholic tour if you didn't open all the doors and cupboards. Strangely I like seeing how space you have to store things. Now this is a great looking boat. I could see myself spending a fair amount of time on her. Well laid out. Perfect to get away on. Thank you Nick for bringing this one to our attention. She is a brilliant little boat
What a space and so cosy. Very nice, thnx for this tour.

Absolutely stunning 😍
No doubts Nick…… THAT’S the layout for me 🤩 Growing up on regular outings on Bell Boats Hire fleet from Brundall….. usually one of the Restabell 42’ (??) centre cockpit boats…… masses of accommodation, later, the Moonraker 36’s built in the same yard…… huge volume 🙂 Then, my favourite engines, the D3 🙂 and a compact Cummins generator…… Gorgeous boat…… time to get the house valued…… 🌟
Comprehensive as always Nick
What a beauty.!. My dream boath.! Thanks Nik.you are the best one as usual.!
What a interesting boat, great concept and expertly put together. Really enjoyed that tour 👍
Pretty boat. Another well-done tour.

On the Dutch waters these boats reign supreme. Gorgeous do-it-all for inland waters and coastal.
I Enjoyed the Sound of Silence when he turned on the engines! Powerboats can be fun, but This yacht is Livable, like a sailing yacht in the regard of, enjoying the sedated breeze that can occur at a passage! Autopilot On and Enjoy
My favorite layout!

Love this boat as a live aboard - but for me, I need a little more displacement speed. I know it's a "river" boat, but it has great qualities. If it made 14 kts and had a generator/hybrid/solar, it be perfect for my wants. The space is there. Add a freezer and a water maker and you're golden.
What a lovely boat .
Finally a Linssen
Wouldn’t I love to spend time on this beauty! Until I found Aquaholic, I never realized how many canals England has.
Let's face it, the Dutch know how to build a boat, great looking, loads of room and laid out perfectly, for it's size the best yet Nick?, i think it might well be, great tour as always, i think other builders should take note of what you can do with forty five feet.

Agree, in its length. It punches well above many others.
Great boat great space
A really nice boat
I have to say.. After watching 50 or 60-something videos of yours. This is maybe my favourite. It looks simple, modest, functional and well proportioned.. Maybe the only thing I would change is the canopy top. I would probably prefer something more solid.. But I suppose, if you have the money, that's an alteration Linssen would listen to.
A boat you can putter around in as an inland cruiser and around the coast. She is the type of boat you could moor on a river parking buoy or in a marina I'm guessing. Comfortable but can deal with a lot of weather conditions if needs be. I do like this once you are on board you can make yourself at home. Great, an interesting boat thanks Nick.
Very nice looking boat. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Such an impressive boat
