About the experience

Hello,

The rental includes our skipper, whom you will need to pay on site (€300 in addition to the price shown in the advertisement). Fuel is also the responsibility of the client.

I am offering this magnificent, brand-new Jeanneau Leader 36 for rent, delivered in May 2020. This 11.60m motorboat has 5 berths on board, but you can also charter it for the day, with family or friends, with a group of up to 10 people (1 skipper + 9 guests).

You can explore the French Riviera, the beaches of St. Tropez, and the Hyères or Lérins Islands. Large sunbeds at the bow and stern of the boat will allow you to make the most of the day, and the hardtop will protect you from the summer sun if needed. A table in the outdoor saloon allows you to enjoy lunch with your loved ones (which we can arrange upon request). The boat is located in the port of Sainte-Maxime (83), but departures are possible from a coastal strip stretching from Cavalaire to Saint-Raphaël (the time and fuel cost to reach the departure port will be at your expense).

The boat is equipped with twin 270hp diesel engines. Day rentals are available in July and August. Outside of July and August, shorter rental periods are possible.

Please feel free to contact me for further information.

See you soon!

    Perfect day on Philippe's boat! The skipper Daniel was great and served us an excellent aperitif. This rental is highly recommended for anyone looking for a day or more on the water! The room was ideal for my son's nap. We will be back next year. Thanks again

    Can't say more than other reviews already have. Just book it, you won't regret it. I looked up just about every boat listing available in this price range and this was head and shoulders above the rest, and delivered. Boat is very comfortable and clean. The biggest part overlooked with booking boats is fuel costs. This was by far the most fuel efficient boat we've been on. Other boats we were considering estimated around 3-4x the fuel expenditure as this one.

    Our experience with renting a boat from Phillipe was exceptional! He was very friendly and his communication was very clear and transparent. The boat was exactly as described: large, spacious, high quality and well equipped including aquatic activities. We rented the boat for a day and had a wonderful time - Daniel, the skipper was very nice nice and it was easy to communicate with him. We had a very nice lunch at a restaurant recommended by Phillipe, followed by some afternoon snorkelling. Overall this was a great day out on the water. Highly recommended!!

    We had an absolutely amazing day on the water! The boat was fantastic, and our skipper Daniel made it even better – he took us to the most beautiful spots and spoiled us with delicious local treats. Everything was relaxed, fun, and perfectly organized. Big thanks to Philippe as well – super easygoing and helpful from the start. Would do it all again in a heartbeat!

    We had a wonderful day aboard the Tripalpha. The boat is pleasant and well-maintained. Daniel (the skipper) showed us some beautiful coves, and lots of thoughtful touches awaited us on board: aperitifs, rosé, paddleboarding, and more. Thanks to Philippe for his responsiveness and perfectly clear information, which made planning easier. An experience to be repeated very soon!

    The evening before, we unfortunately received word that our boat had technical problems and that our booking could not go ahead. The owner, Philipe, did everything he could to arrange another equivalent boat, resulting in our booking going ahead as planned, and we had a fantastic day at sea. The skipper, Daniel, took great care of us. If you're looking for a boat, look no further and book this one.

    Given that it was the first experience, I would say that everything was very easy. Thanks to Philippe, with a few messages we agreed and he provided me with all the necessary information. We spent a nice day in the company of Daniel, a skipper who was always available and polite and attentive to our needs. The kids (10 and 15 years old) had a great time. I really think we'll be back.

    Our party of 7 people had an unforgettable day enjoying the cruising the coastline around Saint Tropez. Captain Daniel was the perfect host with his local knowledge and friendly smile. He took us to calm spots where to swim in turquoise water and poured plenty of rose on board. The boat was well equipped, clean and space was comfortable, and provided good shade too. Philippe was very responsive and timely in communication during the planning phase. Despite a very unsettled weather, it all came together with plenty of sun and fun. We look forward to our next trip.

    Philippe was very easy to work with during the booking process. We booked the boat the day before and were lucky enough to find this one. Daniel was our skipper for the day and he was also fantastic. He prepared a couple snacks for us, brought out champagne, and took our photos. He took us to a really nice spot where the water was crystal clear and great for swimming. We stopped for lunch at this cute restaurant on the beach and then went for a swim again before heading back to the dock. Both were a pleasure to work with and we’ll definitely book with them again!

    We had a wonderful day on Philippe's magnificent boat. Communication with Philippe was excellent and he listened to all our wishes. Skipper Daniel was fantastic. He was very helpful and looked after us very well. He showed us many beautiful places along the coast of Saint-Tropez. We were able to swim with thousands of fish, sunbathe on the boat, have an aperitif on the boat and eat in a restaurant on the beach. This day will be unforgettable for my wife who celebrated her 50th birthday on the boat. We highly recommend this excursion. Thank you Philip and Daniel.

    We couldn't recommend more highly. Philippe owns the boat and manages the booking process through this app. Philippe is super responsive and helpful - I'm new to boating in Sainte Maxime and I asked too many questions but Philippe was always completely patient and understanding. Daniel is the skipper and a perfect gentleman. He ran the day so the five of us could have a great deal of fun but importantly had our safety always in mind. The drinks and wine on board were much appreciated although not really necessary with the great restaurant recommendation. Importantly the boat is fast, very comfortable, spacious and even very fuel efficient. We used less than 150 litres for the day. Thank you Philippe and Daniel for a very special day!

Daniel our Skipper was friendly, caring and very knowledgeable about the area. Philippe’s communication was excellent and prompt replies to any questions I had. We celebrated my Husband’s 50th birthday on board and we could not have picked a better way to do it. Thank you Philippe and Daniel. Fantastic!

We enjoyed a lovely day of boating, swimming, drinking Champagne & Rosé! Beaches, relaxing, sunbathing and an amazing lunch in a very private and secluded restaurant!!
