Description of Yves's sailboat

Hanse - 540e | 12 People

TIAHURA is a sumptuous Hanse 540 e, built in 2009 and completely refitted in 2023. It is an owner's version boat designed for ocean sailing, I recently prepared for the long journey, it has 3 Nautalins, plus one for the skipper on the bow. Sailboat for rent with departure from La Ciotat located between Toulon and Marseille. Convoy in Corsica possible... This very beautiful unit has 3 very spacious double Nautalins with their bathroom. Important to know, in a back Nautalin of a Hanse you stand up ! The saloon offers a very large living space, the woodwork lit by the new portholes gives a cosy and luxurious atmosphere. The deck is all in teak as well as its brand new dolphinarium, which offers a dolphin and whale watching station (pelagos zone between Marseille and Monaco...) that will remain a moving vision of your stay. Tiahura is entirely autonomous in energy as in water, 800 watts of solar panels as well as a generator. The production of fresh water is ensured by a Desalator 200 liters per hour (membranes and new filters) All the standing and running rigging has been changed, the Elström sails are new. Tiahura has a real dinghy, a highfield of 3.4 m with an aluminum hull and a 20 hp, both are new. Very important for cruising, Tiahura has a very large aft locker, accessible through the opening in the stern which offers an ideal bathing platform. The volume of the trunk allows you to store "your water toys" to enjoy the sea during your stopover. You decide on your destinations and stopovers, the navigation is ensured by a skipper you navigate serenely in the Mediterranean. For more information, do not hesitate to contact me, I will be happy to help you in your project.

Yves and his daughter were incredible hosts, they instantly felt like family. We booked the boat for my best friend’s 30th birthday, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. We sailed around with my group of friends, explored a fascinating tunnel, swam in crystal-clear water, and even visited a secluded beach on a private island. Every moment was fantastic. I can’t recommend Yves enough! he was warm, welcoming, and effortlessly cool.

Our two families (4 adults and 5 kids under the age of 10) had an amazing day on the Tiahura. We sailed a bit and saw the beautiful Calanques and then spent many hours in a protected cove swimming around the boat. Yves was an excellent guide - he patiently taught some of the basics of sailing and shared knowledge of the area. Worth the money to spend the day at sea making amazing memories!

Yves is such a great host and captain! We enjoyed spending a day with him in the sea. Boat has everything you need for a smooth trip. We were swimming all day long, grilling some food right on the portable grill and having fun. Many thanks to Yves once again

August 2024 - Magnificent day on the boat - Departure from La Ciotat to go to the reserve under radiant sunshine - there are 10 of us - 2 families with teenagers. The boat is sublime, spacious, easy to maneuver. Yves lets those who wish to cross the road and, as a great traveler, tells us the history of the region and lots of fascinating anecdotes. Beyond the sublime walk with an unforgettable BBQ in the coves while the children go off to explore the neighboring caves, we will especially remember the kindness and the beautiful meeting with Yves! If you go to La Ciotat, don't miss the opportunity to meet him. Aug 24 - Amazing sailing day! We were 10 people - 2 families with teenagers. The boat is so beautiful, spacious and comfortable with several fridges to keep your food and drinks fresh. We enjoyed spending the day with Yves. He is so kind and knows everything about the region. He was the perfect host and we spent such a great time in his company. Kids spent a lot of time in the water, discovering secret caves with amazing blue colors. The coast is a natural reserve and is absolutely gorgeous. We recommend without any reservation this activity - if you are around La Ciotat - run to book Yves’s boat. You will spend an unforgettable day! VALAT family and LOMBARD family

A very beautiful day spent leaving from La Ciotat. Even if we were not particularly happy in the morning, the windy conditions allowed us to discover the great potential of this boat and Yves was able to demonstrate teaching and sharing. The boat is large, comfortable and in very good condition. A very beautiful moment, I recommend...
