Overall rating
This sailboat is perfect for gaining confidence before moving on to larger and more expensive boats. Highly maneuverable and safe, it offers a wonderful sailing experience. On board, the comfort remains that of a boat from the 1970s: simple yet welcoming, the experience is reminiscent of a "nautical camping" feel. It's always nice for a few days of adventure, but it's true that we would have difficulty spending a week or more on it. Note: To fully enjoy the boat, it is recommended to have at least two people if you are not a sailing expert or do not know the boat well. Indeed, all the halyards are located at the mast (without a return to the cockpit), and since the mainsail is not on a slide, it must be manually assisted when raising and lowering. This makes the maneuver difficult to manage solo for a beginner who must maintain a course while hoisting the sails at the other end of the boat.
Overall, everything was fine
Mickaël and Julien, who jointly manage Sweet Pirate's Borgnefesse, were very accommodating and friendly before, during, and after the charter. The preparation and handover were extremely easy and seamless; I was delighted with the experience. The boat is a lovely little sailboat that sails well and easily. The equipment on board is simple and basic, perfectly adequate for us. We also included the inflatable kayak that serves as a tender, which made accessing ports and cruising easier. Thank you, Julien, Mickaël, and Sweet Pirate!
Great experience with the rental of this nice little boat! The reservation was very easy, and the owners are really cool and available. No bad surprises, everything went perfectly. I recommend without hesitation!
