Travel with up to 10 on a Salsa A boat cruise. The saloon and huge kitchen are set forward, creating an open airy ambiance of spacious luxury. Glass doors lead to a lovely lounging area with seating in the bow, and stairs lead to the large sundeck with table for alfresco dining, moulded settees, sun canopy, and a second steering station.
Jump aboard and take a look around with our virtual tour...
The generous and well-appointed saloon set forward boasts a huge dining table, L-shaped settee, and three comfortable chairs.
The table/settee converts to a large double bed.
The music system in the saloon consists of a radio/CD player with MP3/USB connectivity. Speakers deliver sound to the sundeck.
The open plan includes the kitchen/galley, which is adjacent to the grand saloon. Equipped with a gas stove and oven, two electric refrigerators, a sink, lots of counter and storage space, the Salsa’s kitchen is beautiful, efficient, and functional.
Cabin fans throughout the boat provide cooling breezes in warm weather.
An inside steering station has good visibility.
Access to the front deck and the sundeck opens up the entire forward section of the boat. Huge picture windows bathe the space in pleasing natural light.
Two aft (rear) cabins are tastefully decorated with plush upholstery headboards, wood trim, and windows for natural light. Each has two single beds that convert to double beds. There is an en-suite bathroom with shower, new electric-flush toilet, and sink in each cabin. Bathrooms can also be accessed from doors leading to the small central hallway.
Immediately forward of the aft cabins are two comfortable staterooms with double beds.
All cabins are fitted with extra-long beds, assuring a restful night’s sleep.
Plentiful closets and other storage make the cabins free of clutter.
Everything was great from start to finish.
Beauty at every turn of the head. I did not enjoy all the locks...but they are the things that make boat travel possible...so.
Cabins great, kitchen and living area and upper deck just great. This was my best vacation in 66 years

The boat was exceptionally clean inside and out when we collected it at Dinan. The gentleman from Le Boat who greeted us was a great help getting our luggage on board. We contacted Le Boat once during our sail to ask how to contact a lock-keeper. The response was quite abrupt, but we did get the answer. Everything about the boat worked well, including the Wifi.
We feel we should have had the £100 repeat customer discount which we have had before, but were told by the UK office that we couldn't have it as we already had a good deal? We also tried to book WiFi through the UK office but were told it wasn't available from Dinan. So we emailed the local French office who supplied the WiFi gadget on our arrival-thankyou.
The Le Boat team at Messac were jolly and made disembarking as painless as possible. We hope to return to Messac next year. Boat was great, Brittany lock-keepers were all excellent.

Service was excellent throughout the process...during booking, at the departure base and at the arrival base. Although it's not the newest model, the Salsa is my favorite. I especially like the open layout with the galley and main saloon. Plus I like the double doors the open from the main saloon and the bow seat. The top deckis also very spacious and comfortable for large groups.

Our welcome at Messac was great, The team were friendly and very helpful, they told us where to find a great supermarket and Paul demonstrated the boat beautifully even took us through our first lock ! The manual was extremely helpful with the route which included everything of interest along the way. We would definitely book with Le Boat again in a different location in France.

Every leBoat person we connected with was friendly, encouraging, patient and very, very helpful, whether by phone and email to two women in the Canadian office for our booking, or to quite a few at the Casale base (enthusiastic and encouraging orientation from Gloria and Luka, and an easy and friendly checkout from two other men whose names I unfortunately didn't get). Comments about the boat are included in "Casale sul Sile" section

love the boat and experience- however, starting the cruise on a Sunday is a big mistake as there was now transport from the closest train station and now supermarkets were open to stock up on food good size. clean, easily moveable

The service was excellent however there were a few things which were not satisfactory. The gas ran out after the first day. The toilet blocked. The toaster function on the stove did not work and could not be connected. So we did waste a few hours waiting for the people to come and fix things.Apart from that the cruise was excellent Comfortable boat with everything we need
