Absolutely 5* Gilles went above & beyond to make a marriage proposal at sea the best surprise it could possibly be!!! It all went perfectly & she said Oui !! Fantastic boat & skipper all with a trip to the most beautiful location, nothing was too much trouble even providing champagne for the occasion. We would highly recommend Gilles! We will definitely be sailing with him again. Thank you Gilles

The trip was perfect and exceeded out expectations. We were able to help sail the boat, enjoy free cold drinks, swim in the ocean, relax on the front deck net and take a nap. Seb, the captain, was very friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible as to where we went and what we did. While we didn't catch or see anything, we were able to fish and look for dolphins and whales. Quite a magical day and fully recommend this experience with Seb and his boat.

Beautiful trip on the South of France. Very romantic. The boat was perfect and easy to drive. Highly recommend for people looking to explore the coast of France with autonomy to get away from the masses.

Marc and Valerie were amazing!! Their boat was immaculately clean and they were sooo extremely sweet and accommodating. The pricing that they offer for the amount of time of the rental is better than anything else we could find on any website. They had lots of fun toys/equipment for us to use and made sure we had everything we wanted for our day on the water! Even when we wanted cocktails in the middle of the water, they called over a bar boat. Don’t think twice!!! Definitely book this boat for a beautiful day out on the ocean :)
