    A superb experience!! Alain and his wife are a very welcoming and discreet couple. They showed us around the area while being readily available to answer our questions. It was very pleasant; the boat is very comfortable, with the option to charge your phone and play music on board. I highly recommend an experience on this boat!

    We had a great day with Alain and his wife on the boat! They were very welcoming and showed us a good time. Despite some wind we anchored off of a beach in a calm area for swimming and lunch which was very pleasant. Would definitely recommend to anyone traveling to the area and looking to get on the water!

    A wonderful day spent with Alain! He expertly guided us throughout the entire itinerary with a cheerful attitude. The welcome was warm and friendly from start to finish. Having recently obtained my coastal license, I particularly appreciated his advice and his sharing of experience, always with kindness and enthusiasm. We very much hope to repeat the experience very soon. Thank you, Alain!

    The reception was cool and began with the question: "Where are you having lunch?" We mentioned that we'd like to get something to eat in Porquerolles. Alain is a fast taxi driver; he can't get anything done without going full throttle. He was accompanied by his wife, who acted as his assistant and was scolded by him for every little mistake she made while anchoring or docking. Due to his low frustration tolerance, the mood on board wasn't particularly good.

    Alain and Marielle were perfect hosts, They made sure we didn't miss anything, advised us of very nice spots and are basically nice and pleasant people. I recommend this boat with your eyes closed, it is brand new, has all the necessary equipment and the foredeck is very pleasant.

    We were delighted with the warm welcome given to us by Alain and his companion for our trip to sea. The boat was recent, well equipped and perfectly maintained. We had the pleasure of exchanging and having some historical and cultural explanations of the places visited. Thank you for this beautiful walk.
