There’s
always a bigger fish. And there’s a always a bigger boat. In the case
of the Linssen series, that boat is the Linssen Variotop® 500 Mark
II.
She’s our most advanced addition to the range, and she clearly stands head and shoulders above every other boat in her class. In fact, we’d venture to say that she’s the most luxurious production-built steel boat in the world.

We’ve taken a good look at every aspect of the original Linssen 500 and restyled the whole boat for the 21st century.
Our partner on this noble mission is megayacht designer Anne Elsinga,
who workes closely with us to produce masterpieces of marine
architecture. A dream made of steel. A boat that’s the embodiment of
pure cruising style in all its glory.

The Linssen
Variotop 500 Mark II is our way of taking everything that’s great about
Grand Sturdy travel and pushing it to the max.
The result is a 50 ft
(14.95 x 4.85 m) work of art. One that brings a new level of visual
power and cruising comfort to the waterways. Yet one that still stays
true to the Linssen tradition.

The
interior is an important factor when it comes to the value of a boat.
What's important is not how many different lay-outs a boatbuilder can
offer its customers, but how well the available space and volume are
used. In other words, intelligence and craftsmanship are important
ingredients when designing a boat's interior.
For Linssen, a
comfortable stay on board means that all members of the crew can move
about easily, that they have sufficient privacy, and that the
facilities satisfy today's standards of convenience.

For example, the
light-drenched saloon has ample seating for everyone and a spacious
dinette with enough room to share a hearty breakfast, a tasty lunch or
a four-course dinner together. The beds are roomy and ensure a good
night's sleep in spacious, well-appointed cabins.
An elegant interior should also offer enough storage space where it is
most required, and that means conveniently placed lockers, clothing
lockers, shelves and drawers, all of which go to increasing the level
of comfort and convenience.

The third cabin to port between the forecabin and the saloon can also
be set up as an office or study. An L-shaped, ergonomically designed
tabletop gives you the space you need to keep your books and papers in
order. If you find yourself pulling an all-nighter, just crawl into the
bunk above the desk.
You'll love the convenience, and so will your
kids, who can play computer games here without disturbing you. Of
course, you can always decide to have this two-person cabin fitted out
with a "standard" bunk berth
