Day spent on the boat with 2 children, one of 2 years old (equipment adapted to each provided) Perfect for spending the day strolling along the coast and mooring near a beach that is not very busy. Patrick will make you enjoy a great day.

Very beautiful day at sea. The coast is splendid and there are numerous anchorage areas. The boat is very good, with a full awning which provides good protection from the sun when anchored. It conforms to the description. The 50hp are sufficient for pleasant sailing with family or friends. Patrick is a great person, very kind and gives very good advice, he takes the time to explain everything well before going to sea. A repeat without hesitation. Thanks Patrick

His boat consumes very little €23 a day without acting crazy and very clean, he gives very good advice on the route, a local man. Big thank you Patrick, I hope to see you again for your future. ?

Owner at the top too! Patrick gave us a wonderful welcome and explained all the things you need to know about the boat.

Patrick is a serious rental company who takes the time to explain to you how his boat works. He will guide you for the course of your walk. Of a very friendly nature, he is simply perfect. Just one thing Patrick… I forgot to tell you… the homemade leaning post is not too comfortable… maybe to be reviewed otherwise quality for the price is excellent even if the boat is not very new it works perfectly . Looking forward to seeing you again… Kenavo…
