Boat rental in Palau · Italmar — Open 19 (2023)
Description of Fabrizio 's boat without license
Italmar - Open 19 | 7 People
Rental of a beautiful 5.50 meter boat with a capacity of 5 people and a 40/60 mercury 4-stroke engine. The boat is equipped with comfortable bow and stern cushions and awning, very comfortable for families and groups of friends. With this boat it is possible to visit the wonderful islands of the Maddalena archipelago and Corsica independently. In order to rent this boat it is not necessary to have a boat license. The cost of fuel is not included in the price (€ 2.5 litre). CREDIT CARD REQUIRED ** Security Deposit Policy ** Our vehicles are provided with third party liability insurance, but do not have Hull/Kasko insurance. The security deposit is therefore indicative and covers minor damages. In the event of damages for a cost exceeding the amount of the deposit, it will be necessary to integrate it to cover the entire amount of the damage. We are in Porto Pozzo, 15 minutes by car from Palau towards Santa Teresa di Gallura. Write me on Nautal for more information

Really enjoyed the whole experience - fantastic welcome and briefing; boat in excellent order. Only advice I would give is to highlight the forbidden zones around the maddalena islands, as I did end up in a forbidden zone and was managed out by the nature wardens (who were super helpful).
To the lady that helped us out in taking the deposit, I’d like to say please don’t lie to your costumers. I was told the trip to Spiaggia del Cavaliere is a 40 min boat ride. When we started out everyone was polite and a different story when we got back. The boat when I asked they said top speed 20knots and in reality it was maximum 10 not more. The boat ride took us 1 and 30 minutes, and same on the way back. They also said we used 34liters of gas when we got back where the gas indicator says we only used a quarter. So they charged me from 95 euro because each liter is 2.80€. Sure no problem, that’s fair I guess, then because we showed up 35 minutes late she wanted to charge us 50€ per half hour, one would think ok they’ll just charge us 50 because it’s only 5 minutes passed, no she insisted that it’s 100€. Paid that and left. If the boat really would go 20knots I wouldn’t have had smaller and bigger boats passing us as we were the slowest and I wouldn’t have been late. Please be honest and stop scamming your costumers that bring you businesses. Shame on you!
The boat is in really good condition. They were kind and explained us everything. Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t the best one and when we wanted to return to the shore we couldn’t because of the big waves. We asked the owner to send us a skipper to bring us safely and they agreed without an extra fee. We just paid for the extra fuel consumed. I recommend this experience but make sure you check the weather really well or purchase a bad weather insurance otherwise you won’t receive any compensation.
Fabrizio is the best.. had another boat owner cancel on me and was scrambling to find a boat to propose to my girlfriend on. Fabrizio had me out on the water less than an hour from when i messaged him and gave me some amazing spots to drop anchor she said yes thanks fabrizio
It is a great, new boat with all kind of functionalities on board, like a shower and table. We had a great day on the water. The owner is friendly and responds to questions up front. We think however that the rental price for the boat is very high. Also, we did not read anything about paying the gas in cash so we needed to find an ATM in the neighborhood which was not easy and unpleasant at the end of the trip.
Friendly personal, ready to help. Recommended.
A great experience this day at sea with Fabrizio's boat, a small hiccup, the propeller was damaged at sea. I had taken out the small insurance for the day, fortunately! Fabrizio provided all the documents for the repair costs and costs incurred. Everything was reimbursed without the excess of course. I thank Fabrizio for his professionalism
Everything is great....! Thank you!
Fabricio and Federica provided HORRIBLE service. We felt attacked and lied to the entire time. They never told us we needed to bring cash and then for not having cash they charged us 20%. The worst service I have received anywhere in the world!
Everything was fine and it was a lovely day! I can recommend it!
Top experience.. everything perfect.
Beautiful day, perfect boat
Great outing, very clean boat. We had a great day close to the islands.
Everything was super good. They were very kind.
Excellent time spent in this magnificent region. We liked the quick support, the response to our questions and the service provided. Particular attention to rocks when piloting in the region, particularly in creeks
I'll tell you my personal experience: I book and pay for a semi-new boat from 2023, a few hours before they warn me that the booked boat is not available and that they will give me an identical one in another color. I arrive at the port and they give me a boat that is much older than the one I had booked and with a very hard engine lever. Despite this we set off, we leave the port, and at the first slowdown the boat turns off and never turns back on again. After several attempts we had to call to come pick us up, broken alternator and flat battery, on the other hand they gave us the dinghy instead of the boat, at least that one works. Upon returning, petrol must only be paid in cash, half an hour to find a functioning ATM. Furthermore, I would recommend changing the deposit time because 5 days into the rental I still haven't seen anything returned, and my bank has always resolved this type of pre-authorization within a few hours once the unlock signal arrives. All we can do is hope. Bad service, I repeat, my personal experience.
Very good rental company Good service
Everyone was very nice and the boat is of good quality. The throttle lever is a bit on the loose side and reverse is especially difficult. The boat is otherwise equipped with all amenities. Please note that you must provide your driver's license as long as you rent the drill. Not very safe, especially considering the GDPR rules that they do not adhere to here.. You also have to pay a deposit of 1,000 euros via credit card and this will take more than a week before you get it back. You also have to pay 10 euros for visiting the islands, even if you don't visit them, you don't get a receipt, so it will end up in the owner's pocket. Oh yes and book outside of Click and Boat, that will save you 113 euros!!!!!
The address received by email for the appointment was not the correct one. The contact person really didn't care and didn't try to help us. We got a message that it wasn't their problem. Very unpleasant and not very commercial.
Everything was perfect! Everything went smoothly! The staff is very friendly and helpful!
Everything perfect, a fantastic day in the Maddalena archipelago with a good boat and easy communication with the local company. recommendable
The boat was in perfect condition. Overall it was a wonderful day with my family.
There were 4 of us with no idea of driving boats, we went alone and it was great, it's super easy, the only thing was the explanation was very quick but then you learn quickly. And to say something bad, the gasoline that they charge you whatever they want because there is no meter always appears as empty. How much you spend?? You do not know it…. But ok overall good
They are taking time to return my deposit otherwise everything is great.
Very nice and professional service. The boat we sailed in perfect condition, parking right at the pier. We recommend
Of course I gave 5 stars to everything, the boat was new, it had 5 hours of sailing! All perfect
