Description of Bernard's sailboat

Translate to English (UK)

Sailboat Tes 28 Magnam Deriveur Integral 8.7m

The sailboat is brand new, and I enjoy spending as much time as possible on board.... This is one of the reasons why I go there as often as possible... “I only do co-navigation: I AM ALWAYS ON BOARD.” No smoking on board: Especially inside, In the event of a "crisis" exemption possible on the rear skirt if the weather is mild... Bring boat shoes... Life jackets compulsory for people who cannot swim or as soon as the swell rises... Price proposed for 1 couple: allow €50 per day & per additional person from the 3rd person (decreasing rate depending on the number of days). Personalized price proposal according to the composition of the family with children. The sailboat is super comfortable, with two closed double cabins with cupboard and fittings, a large and superb bathroom with WC and shower (hot water everywhere) An L-shaped equipped kitchen with large 40 liter refrigerated cooler and a 2-burner gimbal stove. Water capacity is 120 liters of water plus 20 liters of hot water in the boiler The interior is in solid blond oak with 1.87m headroom, a very friendly and comfortable saloon, numerous equipment and storage boxes, exceptional interior clarity thanks to its 8 deck panels and portholes… You can take a mini virtual tour on the website of the importer TESYACHTFRANCE. where videos show the interior, the beaching, etc... Its brightness is really one of its strong points. In fact, upon entering the saloon, a real feeling of well-being is immediately evident: natural light enters at will thanks to the balance of the porthole locations and deck hatches. All maneuvers are carried out in the cockpit and the sailboat is equipped with an autopilot and a state-of-the-art navigation center on the wheel console, with Wi-Fi forwarding possible on iPad for saloon watches. The emergency tiller is within easy reach in the very large jack locker on the starboard side with the sea anchor. With its shallow draft (38 cm) you can easily go up small rivers, rias, and go beaching with ease. Its large folding rear deck measuring 135 x 90 cm allows you to walk down to the sand or get back on board when swimming thanks to its integrated folding ladder... Considerable volumes everywhere mean that this 9.60 m sailboat with its folded skirt has nothing to envy of its even much larger rivals!!! Although a dinghy, the sailboat goes upwind quite well and is very ardent. A great sailboat therefore and that's why I was seduced and why I bought her, replacing her little brother, a magnificent TES720 which was sold the following season. PS: Refueling is done before departure and then upon arriving at the port on the last evening! Costs in general (port, fuel, food) are the responsibility of the tenants It is the participants who choose and pay for the nights at the ports (other than La Rochelle - free) to spend the night, unless you stay at anchor when the weather permits. You also have to plan for start-up and cleaning costs of 80 euros, knowing that I have to come the day before and leave the next day to re-prepare and maintain the boat...

We selected this boat, the 28 Magnam, for a trial run before considering a potential investment. Bernard is a fantastic skipper who allowed us to test the boat in rough seas. He knows his boat inside and out and gave us all the details. He was very attentive and a great teacher... it was perfect! A wonderful experience!

We spent 4 extra days with my wife on Bernard's TES28. Bernard knows his dinghy and the region very well, which allowed us to run aground on sandbanks and discover the islands of Re and Oleron differently. He is very educational and we learned a lot about navigation, tides, weather and fishing ?. In short, a very nice experience.

Thank you Bernard! A magnificent day (unfortunately the cruel lack of wind in the morning). Our host was able to liven up the day and bring his know-how to a technical body of water. Thank you again for all the little attentions. Good wind for the next outings. See you soon.

Two very nice days at sea with Bernard, who shows an exemplary welcome and flexibility. This boat with a shallow draft is in perfect condition and ideal for cabotage around La Rochelle, among the neighboring islands in particular, surroundings that the owner knows perfectly. Whether it is for a first experience at sea, a desire to discover the maneuvering of a habitable or more ambitious navigation, Bernard will make you benefit from his nautical experience and will allow you to learn a lot through practice. This in all relaxation and simplicity.

Bernard welcomed us very well. He knows the area very well and made us discover the different islands in complete safety. The stranding at Fier d'Ars was really nice and unusual. He showed pedagogy on navigation and taught us how to perform the various maneuvers. His boat is really very good for a couple with a child. The living space is very well thought out and ergonomic. It has all the options necessary for such a cruise. The dinghy side offers her a big plus in this area: possible grounding, entering and leaving ports much longer than a keelboat thanks to her shallow draft. We are very happy with this adventure with Bernard.

Thank you Bernard for this beautiful experience that corresponded exactly to what we were looking for: spend 2 full days and a family night on a boat. Thank you for letting us participate in the navigation and for sharing with us your experience and your passion for the sea. And thank you again for your welcome. Hope to see you.

Very very good stay, with a skipper passionate, flexible, patient, vigilant, attentive and caring for its guests, especially for our 3 children who were sailing for the 1st time. The boat is in perfect condition. In this way, the unique pleasures of sailing on a weighted dinghy have been safely discovered. Excellent. From the beginning (contact via Click&Boat) at the end of the stay, communication with Bernard was easy and very effective, greatly simplifying the organization of this trip.

We rented the boat a day. We were 2 people: my husband who does not know sailing at all and I am rather experienced. Everything went very well. Bernard has adapted his explanations to our two levels. I blocked the boat most of the day which was really great. My husband also a bit barred and dealt mainly with the genoa. Bernard allowed us to take his boat in hand. We also fished when the wind weakened. The boat is very well maintained. In short, a great day with Bernard. To do again!

A fantastic stay, Bernard is very friendly, easygoing, always in a good mood. He likes to share his passion, does not hesitate to leave us the orders of the boat and let us organize our ride. All under his watchful eye, so, safely. Thank you Bernard, we spent 5 days very pleasant and are ready to renew the experience. Say hello to Rémy :) Denis & Laurence

We are delighted with our stay. Great beginners with 3 children from 8 to 12 years, the bet was not won in advance that the whole family appreciates the navigation. But Bernard was a perfect welcome, warm and a great patience to explain the basics of sailing. He made us discover his passion with calm and humor and always listened to our desires or worries. The experience is to renew ... Thank you Bernard! Opinion of the children: "it's great, we love the boat!"
