Sleeping Arrangements
Forward cabin: V-berth (two single beds 90x200cm) convertible into a double bed using an additional mattress section (provided except in Scotland, Germany and on the canal du Nivernais).
Central cabin: two single beds (70x200xm) convertible into a double bed (140x200cm).

Regional Information
Additional equipment – bimini: this model features a bimini-top on the Charente and Lot river, as well as in Italy and Germany.
Brittany navigation limits: due to low bridges, the Caprice can only navigate as far as the entrance to Rennes, but not beyond. From Messac, navigation northwards (Rennes → Dinan) is therefore not possible with this boat. No restrictions when cruising southwards.
Availability
The Caprice is available in many cruising regions: Canal du Midi, Camargue, Brittany, Burgundy, Lot, Charente, Alsace, and other areas depending on the base.
