Yacht charter in La Rochelle · John G. Hanna — Tahiti-Ketch (1961)
Description of Serge's sailboat
Sailboat John G. Hanna Tahiti-Ketch 10.8m
Your stay aboard this romantic sailboat will remain etched in your memory. His Tahiti-ketch plan, drawn up in 1923, has long been the reference for circumnavigations. Illustrious names have recounted in detail their solitary journeys around the world: Bernard Moitessier (Marie-Thérèse II), or even Jean Gau (Atom). Our Djamous, built in 1961, sailed until 1975 between the Aven and the African ports, from which it takes its name, which means buffalo in Chad.

A great day out - even responded to a Mayday ! You are in good hands with Serg- very knowledgable and an interesting character The weather needs to be good to fully enjoy the beauty of this boat
A memorable stay on the DJAMOUS, with its fair share of misadventures for novices like us. The owner is passionate about his experience and helped us get to grips with DJAMOUS. Thank you and fair winds! :) Elody and Jérôme
An old rig for enthusiasts: mizzenmast, staysail, bowsprit, staysail... Forgotten words in modern sailing. Plus, it easily reaches 6 knots. A joy!! Many thanks to Serge for his welcome.
Magnificent sailing aboard Djamous, with which we wanted to set off on a tour of Africa. Serge is very kind, I recommend!
How can a rental for sailing in the Pertuis be transformed into a moment of sharing full of humanity? Ask Serge and his Djamous: they will be the actors. To live!
We had a great day on a boat that has a lot of character and a long history that Serge, its skipper, shared with us. We recommend without any hesitation.
Exceptional boat, exceptional skipper. Serge is patient, funny and competent. I highly recommend!

A 64 ans, Djamous est mon 2ème voilier et vieux gréement. Equipé en catégorie 1, hauturière, je le skippe en solitaire au large de La Rochelle. J'aime par dessus tout partager que ce soit au port ou en mer. Toute l'année j'en propose la location a la navigation pour 4-5 personnes. Seuls les enfants de plus de 10 ans, et sachant nager, sont acceptés. Djamous se prête volontiers aux séances photos, selfies, filmages, publicités, mariages, anniversaires, etc. sous tous les angles, extérieurs comme intérieurs : tout est beau. De plus, chanteur au repertoire 60-90's, j'anime a la demande tout evenement. Succes garanti ! Comme ecrivait Baudelaire (L'invitation au voyage) : "Là tout n'est qu'ordre et beauté, luxe, calme et volupté".
