Description of Fabrizio 's boat without licence
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.
