Description of Maël's sailboat
Sailboat Ketch D'expédition Stervenn Mk2 13m
Hello, I offer sailing trips on my boat, Marie Lutin II, a 13m ketch with a capacity of 11 people (12 with skipper). A sailing school boat for ocean voyaging and expeditions, it will amaze you with its comfort both at sea and at anchor in the surrounding coves. Come discover the Calanques and sailing! As a nautical professional for over 15 years, I will accompany you to discover the wonders of the Calanques through a route adapted to your interests and the weather conditions. The goal is to sail and to have you participate in the maneuvers at your own pace, sharing with you this passion that drives me! You can steer, hoist the sails, and learn how to perform maneuvers! Or simply enjoy the comfort of a flush deck (open to the air) while letting yourself be carried away by the captivating sounds of the water. Swimming and snorkeling stops in the Calanques are organized according to your wishes and supervised by a certified lifeguard. Excursions are adaptable to your goals and desires; don't hesitate to contact me so we can define the recipe for an unforgettable day together! Here are the classic options offered: Day Trips: 10 a.m.–5 p.m., round trip to the Mucem (Musée d'Etudes Universitaires de la Musique), Vieux Port. Sailing in the Calanques Natural Park. Tour of Marseille harbor, anchoring (stops at anchor) in the coves of Frioul Island or the southern calanques. Discover sailing, the marine environment, and the reserve. Evening Trips (Sunset): 7 p.m.–10 p.m., round trip to the Mucem (Musée d'Etudes Universitaires de la Musique), Vieux Port. Sailing in Marseille harbor, tour and anchorage in a cove on Frioul Island. Sunset at anchor or at sea. Return at night under the city lights. Meals and drinks are not provided, but there is a refrigerator on board to keep your snacks cool. We look forward to welcoming you aboard Marie Lutin!

We had ann amazing day on the boat, really would recommend for a nice chill day! Maél was so lovely, and was so easygoing, recommended places to sail, and asked us where we would prefer! 10/10 experience
Can’t recommend Maël enough. Incredible day out. Lovely person with a lovely boat. If you see this it’s your sign to book!
Brilliant service. Great and helpful communication before hand and a fantastic experience on the day. Mael was really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Just a fantastic day, kids absolutely loved it.
We had the best day with Maël. He was very warm and welcoming, communicative, taught us about sailing and the nearby Calanques we visited. It was an incredibly windy day and it was clear that his experience and knowledge about managing the boat and the conditions were strong. We felt really safe and comfortable and had an incredible time. Would highly recommend!
We had a wonderful day aboard the Marie Lutin! Thank you, Maël, for being so accommodating and educational. Everything was perfect! See you next time!
We had an incredible day aboard Mael's sailboat! His presence and advice on the day's program were greatly appreciated. Those who wished could participate in the maneuvers and learn more about sailing. The whole group connected with Mael, and joy quickly set in on board. He taught us a lot, and his good humor and friendliness brightened up the already sunny day! The boat is very comfortable (mattresses for resting), and there were 10 of us (+ 1 with Mael). We had plenty of space, and the equipment provided was perfect for exploring the coves. A big thank you again, Mael, for this magnificent day. We will keep wonderful memories of it.
Mael is passionate and inspiring. He was fantastic, attentive to our needs and extremely kind. He perfectly coordinated this very special day. We will cherish unforgettable memories of these family moments. A huge thank you for these shared moments.
An excellent day with Maël on his beautiful sailboat! It all came together: exceptional weather, a sublime natural setting, a passionate skipper, and a group of friends delighted to discover the Frioul Islands in this way. An experience to be repeated as soon as possible.
We had a wonderful day with Maël aboard the Marie Lutin. Maël is very friendly, attentive, passionate, and a great teacher! I highly recommend this experience. Thank you again!
We had a wonderful evening, an experience I highly recommend if you're looking for something new at sea. The Skype user is very responsive, friendly, and offers good advice. The freediving instructor is also excellent.
A great day with Mael. Welcoming, educational, and super friendly. Our best day spent in Marseille.
We had a wonderful day on the sailboat with Mael. Mael communicates carefully and promptly. Throughout the day, he shared a lot of information with us about sailing. We enjoyed everything he shared with us. We visited beautiful bays, enjoyed swimming, and made use of the onboard SUPs, snorkels, and flippers. Thanks to Mael!
A dream day for 11 of us! After having the choice of three itineraries for our 7 hours on board, the day was a delight from start to finish. I 100% recommend Maël if you're looking for a perfect day on a sailboat ?
We had an incredible day aboard the sailboat! Maël is a very professional skipper, attentive to everyone, and extremely friendly. He was able to adapt to our wishes with great flexibility, while happily sharing his sailing knowledge. The boat is very comfortable and well-maintained, perfect for a day for 8 people. We loved this experience and would not hesitate for a second to book again. Thanks again Maël for this great time!
We had a wonderful day with Maël, whom we highly recommend. He is a very caring, accommodating, educational, and professional person. Thank you for this day, which will remain etched in our memories.
The day went wonderfully, with great guidance from Maël, who is a lovely person and an experienced professional whom I highly recommend. Thank you again for this birthday I will remember! See you soon ?
The day on the boat was fantastic. We were a group of 10, and we all had plenty of space on the boat. The tour offered was really nice. We were able to swim in several beautiful spots. Mael is a great skipper; he was fantastic all day. Very happy to have booked with him.
An exceptional experience on this sailboat with Maël who was very accommodating in organizing the evening and who was very educational, kind and patient in the way he taught us a few things about sailing. He is truly passionate about what he does and that makes these moments all the more enjoyable and authentic. Thank you again for everything, we can only recommend the experience!
A wonderful tailor-made family cruise with the best skippers! Maël is a passionate sailor, teacher and philosopher ;-)
Mael is a great skipper. My friends and I had a great time for my birthday. I recommend.
Great day with Maël! The boat is very spacious, ideal for groups. We had a great time despite a bit of a “sporty” navigation and some uninitiated people Great little coves
We had a great day with Maël, everything was perfect! The boat is spacious and really beautiful! We really enjoyed it, the day went by way too quickly.
Maël is just great!!! He welcomed us all with open arms and we had a wonderful time despite the rough seas. This sailing experience was just extraordinary. He accepted all the last minute changes and it suited our group perfectly! I recommend more more!!! See you soon Maël!!!
Superb outing with Maël, very welcoming and who ensured that the outing was in the best conditions. Thanks again !
Thank you for this family day (3 generations together) a professional skipper who knows how to share his passion and for all ages. Listening to everyone’s desires, sharing experience Excellent day to repeat We recommend it to you
A great day spent with Mael! Very attentive, flexible and happy to share his knowledge. We went to Friuli and were able to learn some navigation skills before landing in a cove. The boat is also very nice. To be done again without a doubt!!
Maël was an excellent skipper during the day spent on his boat. He shared with us many tips, anecdotes and stories about the region and navigation, and did everything to ensure that we had a pleasant time. A great experience, which I can only recommend!
We spent a Sunday with not very favorable weather, despite that Maël put us in the best conditions. Thank you so much !!
We are a group of 8 friends who booked a whole day (10 a.m. - 10 p.m.) on Saturday October 30 to enjoy the day and the sunset aboard Mael's sailboat. We couldn't hope for better than his warm welcome, the transmission of his passion for sailing (despite a light wind, Mael did his best to hoist the three sails and tack a few tacks), the discovery of new magnificent spots around Marseille with sharing some of his favorite sites for tranquility, scenery and snorkeling. All this in complete safety of course. A tailor-made program and a day spent in blissful mood, we will come back without hesitation! Thank you again for these good times shared.
We loved our day on Maël's boat, there was everything you needed to have a great day! Maël was very kind, passionate about sailing and shared his knowledge with us which was very appreciated!
We were welcomed very warmly. The day was excellent, Maël knew how to share with us and introduce us to his passion with a lot of pedagogy and kindness. The experience was enriching both in activity and in human encounters. Thank you for this day! :)
If you are looking for a great and human discovery of Marseille, I recommend that you make your reservation with Maël, his boat is top notch, Maël is accommodating, friendly and he knows a lot about the coves. He is also incredibly patient. ?
Magnificent day of boating towards Frioul and the creeks. Mael is a great captain, attentive and who will teach you the basics of navigation in no time!
Maël is a very professional super skipper, Respect for safety, patient with the children and makes them interested in the Navigation, very attentive to our expectations for this day at sea, discreet in short, we had a wonderful day with friends !! Thank you Mael
Maël did everything to make our trip on the sea go very well. He was very responsive to our needs. We hope to come back soon!
Superb experience! Maël's kindness made this day perfect. He explained to us the different possible outings on the day depending on the wind and the weather. We felt safe all along, were able to take the helm, learn a lot of things, while enjoying and resting (swimming in the creeks, nap during navigation). Maël naturally knows how to find the right balance between sharing his passion and leaving privacy to his guests. Thank you very much, we will remember this day for a long time.
The captain and his beautiful boat gave us full satisfaction. He is a friendly man, very pedagogical with the children by explaining the navigation to them and making them steer. Contact with the adults was very pleasant, we had a great day.
Mael is great! At the same time welcoming, educational and discreet, we had a wonderful time aboard the Marie Lutin. Another big plus, knowing that the Skipper is involved in social-educational projects, co-financed thanks to yachting activities, Bravo!
Mael is a beautiful person with a big heart, listening and very friendly contact. Magnificent experience to discover the Calanques and the world of sailing. Professional and pedagogue, we all very much appreciated this day during which we were able to participate in the maneuvers and enrich ourselves with his knowledge. The course of the day was decided jointly and the experience was very friendly. Safety remains one of its priorities. A great meeting!
Exceptional release! Great welcome, Maël is a very professional skipper who gave us good explanations on navigation and on the creeks. A very good day, I recommend 100%!
We had a great day in the company of Maël who was very professional and attentive to our desires. Everything was perfect !
Thank you Maël for this great day, everything was perfect. A great captain and a superb boat, a return to sailing with a lesson for all passengers, it's really the best ;) I recommend +++
A wonderful day with Mael. The boat is healthy and seaworthy, comfortable, with room to enjoy the exterior mattresses without interfering with maneuvers. The Ketch rig allows a didactic discovery of sailing, I recommend.
Thank you Maël for this superb memorable day at sea. Everything was perfect.
We had a great experience with Mael, simple and authentic. Mael is very accessible, discreet and very accommodating for schedules, meeting places and destinations. It was an excellent day at sea, all the participants were delighted.
