We had a fabulous day trip on the kapalouest - with 12 kids in tow it could have been hectic but they had a ball and we felt safe the entire time. The crew were great, the boat was spacious and comfortable, and we really couldn't have asked for more - thank you!

We had a fantastic morning on Philippe’s boat - the boat is in great condition and engine powerful. He is a good host and accommodating to requests. We shall use the boat again.

Florent was an absolute gentleman. He organised someone to help translate on initial paperwork and handover. The boat is as advertised, clean , in impeccable condition, and well equipped with GPS and Fish Finder. We had a great day out and Florent was waiting at the berth to assist us on our return. I would highly recommend Florent should you wish to hire a vessel in La Rochelle. David Byrne.

Really pleasant sailing area, mostly sheltered thanks to the island of Oléron. Many points of interest to discover (Fort Boyard, Ile d'Aix, Ile d'Oléron with its small marina in Boyardville, Ile de Ré, ...). Very pleasant also to sail near other magnificent sailboats quite numerous in the bay.
Zone de navigation vraiment agréable, en majeur partie abrité grâce à l'ile d'Oléron. De nombreux points d'intérêts à découvrir (Fort Boyard, Ile d'Aix, Ile d'Oléron avec notamment son petit port de plaisance à Boyardville, Ile de Ré, ...). Très agréable aussi de naviguer près d'autres magnifiques voiliers assez nombreux dans la baie.
