Description of Anthony's motorboat
Motorboat Jouandoudet Guppy 520 Open 100hp
This robust and maneuverable 5.20-meter motorboat is ideal for a family outing, a day of fishing with friends, or a relaxing outing in the heart of Arcachon Bay. Easy to steer, it will suit both beginners and more experienced sailors. The Guppy 520 Open offers a beautiful living space thanks to its open layout. It features bench seats at the front and rear, comfortable upholstery, a practical storage locker, and a sun awning to protect you on the sunniest days. Thanks to its V-shaped hull, this boat guarantees good stability even in slightly rough seas. With its engine of up to 100 hp, it allows you to move quickly from one point to another in the bay while maintaining moderate fuel consumption. The boat is equipped for your activities: a tackle locker, a swim ladder, and an anchor. Whether you're a fisherman or a fan of quiet coves, you'll find what you're looking for on board. Departing from Grand Piquey, you'll have a front-row seat to explore Bird Island, Cap Ferret, the Cabanes Tchanquées, and the Banc d'Arguin. A pre-departure briefing is available if needed.

Overall rating
Despite the owner's kindness and warm welcome, I was accused of not having filled the fuel tanks, even after providing proof of payment. This gentleman accused me of not having refueled. The boat stalls constantly, doesn't idle, and consumes a lot of fuel. Having spent days on the boat where the fuel lasts all day, this one isn't cost-effective. In short, we took advantage of half the day to avoid this kind of accusation and paid full price. Unfortunately, even after refueling, which costs an arm and a leg, until the dock (about 10 minutes), according to the gentleman, I didn't refill.... I don't recommend it.
Anthony is super friendly and responsive. Everything went well! I recommend him.
