Broker's Comments

Nicols OctoFly C for sale in France. Boatshed Midi Canals is pleased to offer this superb and as new motor cruiser for sale. Huge saving of time and money (no waiting list), this is a rare owner version built for our client in 2020 and delivered in July 2020. Sad circumstances force a sale after just 70 hours of navigation. Take a good look at the photos and videos. Nicols have always been a bit different to the, "run of the mill", "more of the same" motor cruiser and the OctoFly C is, for my money, the flagship of the fleet. All the convivial practicality of the all on one level sedan with the added bonus of a humungous flybridge including comfortable helm, sun-loungers, plancha, bar area and massive table seating all accessed by a very easy stairway.

Inside is bright, spacious and warm with rich honey colour wood finishings. Practical with a crisp modern look and the comfort of air conditioning and warm air central heating throughout the boat. The standard OctoFly is fitted with a fixed dinette to starboard in the saloon. Our vendors opted for an open plan saloon with extra cupboards instead and a table with easy chairs can be move around the saloon or the aft deck as desired. Fully equipped galley with 4 hob gas burner, fridge and freezer, and a dishwasher. Guests are received in style with each identical cabin having its own ensuite facilities. The owner has a full width cabin forward with a central bed a walk-in wardrobe cum dressing room and ensuite shower, basin and heads. Better accommodation inside and out than many vessels nearly twice the length she is just perfect for exploring French waterways and Europe's rivers and canals alike.

Easily managed, low maintenance and ideal for a couple who want to enjoy cruising (not painting) and to be able to invite friends and family in comfort and style.

Please note that the boat comes with all equipment, beddings, crockery, plates, pans, kitchen appliances etc..

The mooring, in a quiet and very pretty marina, may be transferrable upon request.

For more information or to organise a visit, please contact, Graham your local broker at Boatshed Midicanals.
