About the experience

Rent a wonderful, finely restored trawler. The Taipan is a boat filled with memories of times gone by, recollections of distant seas, and tales that end with the beginning of a new journey. I invite you to discover the history of this vessel, featuring two cabins with bathrooms and a spacious dinette in pure vintage nautical style.

From Portoferraio, you can sail through the crystal-clear waters of Elba Island, with the option of reaching the most hidden and enchanting spots in the Tuscan Archipelago, as well as Corsica and Sardinia for longer stays.

Entering the boat, you'll find the main area, the dinette, with its large table and a fully equipped kitchen where you can prepare delicious seafood dishes. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, finished with wooden details and a true nautical style. Both cabins are decorated in the same style.
At the stern, you'll find a luxurious bow cabin with a large double bed and a single bed, as well as a bathroom with a walk-in shower and air conditioning. The bow cabin features two spacious and comfortable bunk beds, a large wardrobe, and a bathroom.

Outside, the boat features a large sundeck both aft and forward. On the flybridge, you'll find comfortable sofas sheltered by the flybridge awning, the perfect space for an aperitif or to relax while cruising.
The skipper and tender costs are included in the price, while food, fuel, and any port charges are excluded.

Check-in and check-out times are approximate and correspond to day trips. For longer stays or special requests, the time can be agreed upon based on everyone's needs. Overnight stays can accommodate a maximum of 7 passengers.

The story of this boat has become my own, and I'd like to share this passion with you. I look forward to seeing you on board!

    Our boat trip with Lorenzo was so wonderful!! Definitely the highlight of our week in Elba. The boat is so charming with lots of space to move around, lounge in the sun or take some shade when you need to. Lorenzo is an absolute sweetheart and made us feel so welcome and relaxed. We really enjoyed the lunch he provided - antipasti, fresh clams and pasta, chilled wine - it was all fantastic. A wonderful day of swimming, relaxing in the sun and enjoying the gorgeous Elban coastline and Mediterranean Sea 💖 We were so happy with the entire experience, and highly recommend to anyone visiting Elba!

    It was a great time for everyone in the group. Lorenzo was ready and accommodating. He was able to take us and reserve for us at a restaurant we wanted for lunch, made sure there were drinks in the boat and whatever else we needed. Highly recommended!

    Fantastic experience from start to finish. The captain was incredibly friendly, communicative, and made the whole day effortless. The pickup and drop-off process was smooth, the stops along the route were beautiful, and the boat was spacious with plenty of comfortable areas to relax and socialize. The food prepared on board was absolutely delicious and made the experience even more enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water and would happily book again.

    Lorenzo was a great captain for our day at Elba. He even picked us up at the ferry terminal and cooked delicious lunch on board. He clearly knows the area very well and took us to incredible calas.

    Lorenzo is a professional, conscientious, kind and pleasant skipper. We followed his recommendations and enjoyed a wonderful tour on the island of Elba. Our only regret was not staying another day ?. Thank you for a nice day ! Melody

    Lorenzo was very responsive and flexible with accommodating our day charter to sail around Elba on short notice. Lorenzo clearly has an eye for design and the interior and exterior of the Taipan is beautifully refurbished and well maintained. The boat was clean and spacious and comfortably accommodated our group of 8 for a day out at sea. Lorenzo was very warm and friendly. We had the most beautiful day sailing on the Taipan with Lorenzo and would not hesitate to recommend him.

    We got along very well with Lorenzo. Polite and helpful boy, always inclined to joke, he gave us an experience as friends and not as guests. Definitely recommended for one or more days on the boat dedicated to relaxation and fun.

    We had a beautiful trio with Lorenzo and were very happy with our day at sea. A cozy boat with a nice deck at the bow and stern and a ladder at the back to swim from, would definitely come with Lorenzo again!
