Description of Laurent's sailboat

Sailboat Vindo 65Ms 11.95m 80hp

The Vindö 65 MS possesses that rare charm of Nordic sailboats designed for long voyages without ever feeling rushed. From the moment you step aboard, you sense it was conceived for sailing, not for showing off at the dock. At sea, it's a reassuring boat.

The Vindö 65 MS possesses that rare charm of Nordic sailboats designed for long voyages without ever feeling rushed. From the moment you step aboard, you sense it was conceived for sailing, not for showing off at the dock. At sea, it's a reassuring boat. The heavy hull and long keel filter the waves, allowing you to move forward smoothly and stably, with that feeling of being on rails that's sorely lacking in modern designs. Under sail, the ketch naturally finds its balance: with the mainsail reefed and the mizzen and genoa well trimmed, the autopilot does little work, and the boat tracks its course with a gentle heel, comfortable for both crew and children. The central cockpit and sheltered wheelhouse transform life on board. You steer in dry conditions, protected from the wind and spray, while maintaining an unobstructed view of the bow and sails, which makes you want to rack up the miles, even when the weather deteriorates. Under power, the large inboard diesel engine delivers effortless acceleration, maintaining a respectable cruising speed in surprising silence for a boat of this generation. Inside, the atmosphere is that of a small cruising yacht, warm and wood-paneled. The fine woodwork, light-colored paneling, and classic layout (deep saloon, proper forward cabin, and a comfortable aft cabin on some versions) immediately invite you to settle in, cook, consult the charts, and plan the next leg of your journey. This is a sailboat where you truly live, summer and winter, rather than simply a holiday vessel. A Vindö 65 MS isn't a boat in a hurry; it's a companion for your travels. It encourages you to extend your passages, to choose sheltered anchorages rather than noisy marinas, and to set off in the morning with a coffee in hand in the wheelhouse, letting the autopilot do the work while the boat glides serenely along in its wake.

Great host, Laurent was very knowledgeable and knew a lot about the local area. He had had a great demeanour so was a pleasure to be around. The boat is a beauty

I am 58 years old and have been sailing since I was 7 in Northern Brittany. I am currently training for my Captain 500 certificate. I am a sailing instructor and have experience sailing in the Atlantic. I crossed the Bay of Biscay on a Mini Transat boat, without GPS or an autopilot. I have participated in numerous winter training sessions in La Trinité-sur-Mer. I organized the first women's sailing race between Lebanon and Tunisia, the Route d'Elissa, in 2004. I now live in Marseille and am discovering the joys of the Mediterranean. I am the proud owner of this Swan.

Frequently asked questions
What happens in the case of bad weather?
If the weather does not allow you to go out to sea, it is better to postpone the booking and agree on a new date with the boat owner. For daily rentals, you have the possibility to subscribe to our Weather Guarantee in order to be fully reimbursed in case of bad weather (special weather report, storm, etc...).
Is fuel included in the charter price?
Fuel is not included in the rental price. Please contact the owner if you would like an estimate of the fuel cost of booking this boat.
Am I insured in case of problems with the boat at sea?
All boats available on Click&Boat are covered by at least a mandatory third-party liability insurance (RC), as required by applicable regulations. This insurance generally covers damages caused to third parties, but does not cover damages caused to the rented boat itself. In the event of damage to the boat during the rental period, the owner is entitled to retain part or all of the deposit left by the renter in order to cover the repair costs. The renter may, where eligible, take out a damage waiver insurance in order to protect their deposit. As a general rule, damages are to be settled directly between the renter and the boat owner. In case no agreement can be reached, the matter may need to be referred to the competent legal authority. Additional insurances (such as deposit waiver, assistance, etc.) may be purchased directly on Click&Boat at the time of booking, subject to the applicable terms and conditions.
