Air cooling and air conditioning

When the temperatures soar, our cabin air cooling system can help make your night’s sleep a little more comfortable. Air cooling uses canal/river water to produce cool air which is blown out through vents.

 

Please note: This is not the same as air-conditioning which can achieve lower temperatures and has a thermostatic control. Performance significantly reduces if canal/river temperature is too high.

Our trip was long-delayed due to COVID. LeBoat worked with us every step of the way. Pre-trip planning and advice was excellent and they answered all of our questions promptly. On-site in Belgium, Bieke gave us spot-on advice, maps of each city, and the time required to ensure a good trip. Mr. Thibeault provided excellent training on the boat. All six bikes were in top-notch order. We could not have asked for more. Their performance was sterling. We ran for one week up through Diiksmuide to Yepres which was, at times emotional. We went to WWW1 museums and sites. We took the tram to the coast to do the Atlantic Wall museum. We sat down with Bieke a second time to prepare for our week in Bruges and Ghent. The food was fabulous. The beer and brewery tours were all enjoyable. We went to chocolate museums, a lace museum, a Belgian fry museum, and many, many churches. The bikes were a really good, and much used option. We ate three meals a day on-board, and the fourth one out. The maps that were provided for the canals and the cities were also most appreciated. Sadly, there was a dirth of fondu items on Elegance, but fortunately, at 3 Euro a set, they were quickly obtained and left for future travelers. There were two nice big frying pans in the galley, so crepes were available at all times! The team at leBoat really did a great job!

Ian Kennedy said

Good team, really friendly and always happy to help. The boats were modern and well laid out and everything worked. That said the new hob based toaster wasn't great. The boat was great, the main living area was spacious with two separate seating / dining areas. The patio door to the back and good steps onto the roof top patio / driving position. The kitchen is compact but perfectly workable. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom, which is good. The canal route its self if really nice, with interesting lochs and smaller canal sections joining them together. All in all a really nice holiday.

We really enjoyed our week on the River Shannon on the boat. Our kids are aged 12 to 16 and they all took part in sailing the boat and navigation etc. Everything from collecting the boat to the return of the boat was very professional and the staff couldn’t have done more. I would definitely recommend Emerald Star and a super holiday with plenty adventure & crack. Boat was excellent & the Emerald Star staff. Great holiday experience for out teenage kids
