I can only said that Serge was the best renter I have ever met. He has a strong experience in sailing and renting boat. He took a lot of time to explain how the boat was and even took time to make a small ride with us to be sure that everything was ok. If you want to have long discussion about boat you can if you also need to be quick for checkin Serge is very flexible. Regarding the boat, it is in perfect shape, really really well maintained. I am still looking for one but there is really zero negative point I can add here. I strongly recommend this boat. Also Seyne sur Mer is very easy to access by train from Toulon if you are coming from far.

We had an unforgettable day aboard the Octopussy. Alla and Oleg went above and beyond to accommodate our request for an itinerary. We came home with a great crop of fabulous pictures. From the very start, we felt spoiled. Alla greeted us with a beautiful fruit platter. While we brought food and drinks, Alla generously prepared a very delicious lunch for all of us. I have to mention another charming member of the crew—Bandi. This friendly Maltese melted our hearts. He enjoys socializing with the boat guests, but during the sail he would anchor safely by the man in charge (Oleg).During our day on board we enjoyed breathtaking views from the foredeck. Once anchored in the spectacular Villefranche, some of us took the paddleboard to a nearby beach, only accessible by water. We swam, saw beautiful fishes and enjoyed each other’s company. It was a very comfortable cruise, and Oleg is clearly a very experienced skipper. Do yourself a favour and book Octopussy you will thank yourself later.
