This 2020 Linssen Grand Sturdy 450 AC Variotop is a very complete and comfortable steel motor yacht, built by Linssen Yachts in Maasbracht. The vessel combines the trusted Linssen quality with a modern design, ample living space, and high-quality equipment for longer voyages and a comfortable stay on board.
The saloon is light and spacious, with large windows all around and double glazing for extra comfort, better insulation, and reduced condensation. The interior is finished in the warm and recognizable Linssen style, with neat upholstery, solid paneling, and a calm, timeless appearance. The electrically operated Variotop is easy to open from the wheelhouse, allowing you to sail in sheltered conditions while also quickly creating an open sailing experience.
The layout is practical and comfortable. The spacious owner's cabin is located in the aft section, and a fullfledged guest cabin in the bow. Both sleeping quarters feature a private toilet and shower. The owner's cabin is furthermore equipped with an extra-spacious shower with a glass shower screen. Thanks to the electrically adjustable dinette table, additional sleeping berths can be created if desired.
In terms of comfort, this ship is also exceptionally well-equipped. Central heating runs throughout the entire ship via radiators and convectors and is powered by a Webasto Thermo Pro 90 diesel heater. Additionally, air conditioning is present in the saloon, the wheelhouse, and the owner's cabin. Combined with the double glazing, this makes the ship highly suitable for multi-season use.
The galley is extensively equipped with, among other things, a Siemens induction hob, combination oven, dishwasher, two Dometic refrigerators with freezer compartments, and a wine cooler. Furthermore, the ship features practical amenities such as a washer-dryer combination, heated towel rails in the bathrooms, blackout blinds and mosquito nets on the roof hatches, and a generously sized hot water system.
The propulsion is provided by two Volvo Penta D3-110 diesel engines with shaft drive. For comfortable maneuvering, the ship is equipped with heavy-duty proportional bow and stern thrusters from Lippcon, both remotely controllable. The 17.5 kW Cummins Onan generator ensures a high degree of autonomy on board and makes staying on board comfortable even without shore power.
In terms of navigation and technology, the equipment is also complete, including Raymarine chart plotters, radar, AIS, autopilot, VHF radio, and multiple cameras around the ship. On the exterior, the Linssen features teak decks, an electric anchor winch, hydraulic mast lowering system, cockpit tent, stainless steel guardrails, an integrated swimming platform, and double retractable fender baskets on the foredeck.
This Linssen Grand Sturdy 450 AC Variotop is therefore a high-quality and very comprehensively equipped motor yacht, suitable for relaxed cruising, long voyages, and comfortable stays on board during multiple seasons.
