Yacht charter in Villefranche-sur-Mer
BENETEAU — FIRST 38S5 (1995)
Description of Denis's sailboat
First 38,5 with Skipper - without Dashboard
Come with your bag, boat without a dashboard - and get away for a day or several days for a cruise on an associative sailboat with a professional skipper. Around 12m, beautiful boat in its design (Philippe STARK), in its layout (design combining curves and lines, wood and plastic, quality upholstery), in its equipment (most modern equipped with WIFI (with that everyone participates with their Smartphone in monitoring navigation and of the pilot), its fast orientation with a lead keel and a hight mast to take the slightest air in the Mediterranean weather. Particular attention is paid to maintenance and safety equipment with radar last generation. Boat designed in an associative framework which must allow its management. The state of mind allowing pedagogically the passing of the baton of experience and competence but also an atmosphere: benevolent and friendly sharing. The glass of friendship, the making by everyone of something to discover or take in common, that is what is sought on board. Regular day & evening outings (all year) but also short cruises (The French Riviera, Corsica, Liguria, Elba, Sardinia, Balearic Islands, etc.) and unusual accommodation from 2 to 6 days. On the site it's impossible for me to rate the cruises; request programs by messaging: Riviera, Corsica, Sardinia, Elbes, Sicily, Malta, Greece, Balearic Islands, Tunisia, Spain, Morocco ... It's same if you are alone to make an outing!!

Denis ist a very friendly and experience d skipper. He instructs with patience and let me do everything on board. Thanks for the great sailing trip!
We had a fantastic day sailing with Denis. Highly recommend
Denis was a great host and clearly a good and experienced sailor. We enjoyed the day and we were well looked after and Denis gave good commentary on the area. However we later hit some more challenging waters. Great at first, given we wanted some speed and adrenaline. Unfortunately my wife and girls were on the front of the boat and my wife nearly went overboard. We should all have been wearing bouyancy aids in my opinion.
Very pleasant afternoon. Denis is quite knowledgeable about the local environment. If sailing is important, check the forecast or get Denis's advice before going out when is the best opportunity for wind. Wind conditions can vary considerably day to day and within the day. Otherwise, the boat can cruise with the motor ensuring you will have good range in the allotted time. You may want to confirm if others will be joining your charter. Our unfortunate joiner fell seasick and then fell asleep onshore. As a result, we had to motor back as the light wind conditions did not give us enough time to sail after the lunch stop. Also, I encourage Denis to get a motorized dinghy for the Villefranch mooring. The rowboat, while romantic, is slow and tricky to access. All in all, a good outing. I can imagine on the right day with the right wind, it could be very special aboard Denis's boat.
