Greeting to all!
I'm new to the site and I have a question where to live aboard a sail boat 12m/42feet around Paris France. Any information is welcome

Paris Bastille marina is the only place that I know, not sure of the depth over the sill.

Spent a fantastic few weeks there a few years ago. Great place.

A name change might help whilst you are there, the Bastille is only just around the corner and the guillotine was not far away.

I was there earlier this year, as already said the Paris Arsenal marina is about the only option. There are many liveaboard vessels lining the banks of the Seine in Paris but apart from the fact it would be noisy and uncomfortable, I don't know how/if you would get permission to moor there or if there is any space left.

A 12m boat in the Arsenal will cost over €7000 per year, also regulations require you leave the Paris waterways for at least 21 days per year, including 7 consecutive days between july and september (I think). Although I find it difficult to believe some of the piles of junk I saw have been anywhere for a long time!

Here's the Paris Arsenal marina's website:

Round Paris

There are dozens of marinas round Paris.
Buy a copy of the French Magazine "Fluvial". It's dull of ads.
Or google Fluvial.com

We would also be interested, but looking at their information page, I think that bridge height is likely to be a problem - they seem to be indicating a maximum clearance of around 5.5m which rules out any decent sized yacht, I would think
