The Vacance 1200 is a conventional inland houseboat with a steel displacement hull, broad beam and an emphasis on usable living space rather than performance. At around 39 ft, it is compact enough for canal cruising yet large enough to provide a practical multi-cabin layout for six guests.
On the water, the model is built for steady, low-speed travel. It is not a fast boat, and handling is more about careful close-quarters control than agility, especially in locks, marinas and narrow channels. That said, the design is well matched to the kind of cruising most houseboat guests actually do.
Accommodation is the main strength. The usual three-cabin arrangement gives better privacy than many boats in this class, and the layout generally includes proper indoor living space rather than a cramped weekend-boating compromise. For longer charter stays, the combination of cabins, bathrooms and a salon/dinette works well.
Value depends heavily on condition and upkeep, since this is a 2012 charter-style houseboat and individual examples may differ. As a package, it offers sensible space and comfortable inland cruising at a level that feels fair, provided expectations stay focused on relaxed travel rather than performance.
