Welcome to a new world of residential yachts

Relaxing at home or at work
In the comfortable Wohnyacht Experience a new way of life.

Living Spaces on the Water

This model is one of the most innovative and sustainable “mobility and living concepts”, that are currently on the market. As a modern symbiosis between Penthouse and residential yacht, this model has its own fascination.

The aim is to create “sustainable and intelligent living space” on the water that you can use for both private and commercial purposes (holiday home & floating office).

  • High-quality steel construction
  • Sustainable and stable in value
  • Safe — bow and stern thrusters, pole anchors
  • Autonomous — own waste and inflow water treatment
  • Ecological — solar or diesel hybrid drive
  • Modular (freely selectable layout, apartment, office, event location)
  • Full basement — sleeping cabins and storage spaces
  • Profitable as a floating holiday home or office

This model is the ideal travel ship and full-fledged sports boat for all slow-flowing rivers (Moselle, Main, Danube, Berlin waters and French canals). Imagine discovering the most beautiful wine regions and cultural landscapes in Europe with your mobile phone. With the push of a button, you can easily and safely maneuver your home to the berth using the bow stern thruster, and just as easy is the push of a button to extend your telescopic anchor (pole anchor) and securely anchor the ship. So you can on “your little private island” enjoy the most beautiful views in peace.

Do you have a special dream where you would like to live and travel? For example, for the narrower French waterways, the ship width can be adjusted to 4.00 or 4.50 meters; the railings of the deck lounge can be folded so that you can discover the most beautiful places in France.

But the inner values are also tough. On request, the mobile is equipped with a quiet and environmentally friendly John Deere marine diesel engine or a hybrid drive equipped. The ship is ideal for permanent living on board, as the entire living room has a complete basement and can be accessed via two hatches with stairs. All sections can be equipped with radiators so that your supplies, clothing boxes, etc. remain dry even on cold winter days.

You can your Wohnyacht Have it built in the following lengths and widths

  • 12 meters x 4.00 or 4.50
