Picking a car up in one country and returning it in another will incur a large drop off fee.

You could look at the MS Merlijn- https://www.merlijn.nu/
This is a video of a sailing on her in Germany- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPDUwRzpFXU&list=PLZINe6US8uzYcUQGyZQEiRjCD8W4g6wJf&index=6&t=42s

Thank you for the info about the Merlijin, it looks great but it is book through 2025. I like the smallest and owner operated. I am trying to find out the name of the travel agency that has booked it to see if we can book through the agency.

We did the Merlijn before Covid and had a wonderful time. The food on board was very good and the bikes and guide were great too. Can highly recommend it. We did have to book it two years in advance even then though.

Bobbie,
I can't answer that question.
However, and I'm not sure if I am allowed to do this by the rules of the forum, so I hope the webmaster doesn't object to this, but
you will have noticed that the video was made by Emma, a British cruise you tuber.
She works in conjunction with a specialist UK cruise travel agent, and another one in the US.
So you might like to try contacting her US agent- Travel with Brigitte (Texas based)- through this form. Emma doesn't get anything out of this- it is just trying to match people up- https://emmacruises.com/book-a-cruise-usa-and-canada/
I know her UK agent (also called Emma!) is absolutely brilliant.
They may be able to find out for you how to book the ship for you. Good luck, and do let us know how you get on
(Sorry, webmaster, if this post isn't allowed)

Oh wow thanks for the heads up. I will certainly try to connect with Emma.
