Description of Rubén's sailboat

Sailboat Beneteau First Class 8 7.85m

Rent a boat in Ferragudo and meet your dream holiday ⛵ The tour is different every day. Depending on the weather and the time, we choose the best option for you to have an amazing day. 🌄 Do you want to enter the caves? Our boat is too big to enter the caves, but we can stop near and you enter with the kayak that we have onboard. 🍔 You can bring your own drinks and food onboard 🌮🥗 ⛽ Fuel is not included in the price. The price variates between 25 and 40 euros. 👨‍✈️ You can rent this boat with or without a captain. If you don't want a captain, you can drive it but is mandatory for you to have a boat license, according to the Portugal Government. If you want a captain, the captain is paid also in the day. For half a day is only 70€ and a full day it´s 100€. Now you pay for the booking and on the day you pay for the captain, the fuel and 5 euros person the enter in the boat. because to enter the boat you need to pay for a taxi boat that will let you on the boat 😎⛵ I hope to sail with you soon. PS: if this boat doesn't suit you, you can check our other boats in my profile 🚤⛴🛶

Leonardo and Raphael were so welcoming, kind helpful and informative. We really enjoyed our day. Beautiful trip to caves for a swim and kayak and then to Lagos for lunch and sailed all the way back. Lovely boat and two charming hosts. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing day seeing spectacular views that we would only be able to experience from the boat. Our skipper Jose was fantastic and took us to see cool caves that we were able to swim in. He told us information about the places we were visiting and was very accomodating! We had so much fun and would definetly go again.

Had a great experience with the team, starting with Miguel who was very patient in explaining all my concerns regarding the rental and making the process so much easier to David and Bruna, who accompanied us as our skippers. Will definitely be back. Thank you all. ♥️

We had a great sailing time, wind on the first day and light breeze on the second day. Sails could get a refresh but the hull is sound and the ship handles fairly the swell.

We spontaneously wanted to use the Portugal vacation for our first sailing experiences. We found Ruben's boat and had a very experienced skipper and instructor in Dick (thanks again Dick). It was a wonderful day with glorious sunshine, although still a little chilly in February, it was a memorable day of sailing and our enthusiasm for sailing has only grown. Greetings Conny + Andre

Nice friendly owner, also very flexibel, no problem. The boat is a sensitive and sporty sailer which handles very well. However is does need maintenance here and there. The ship has no toilet and we thought it had, which was difficult for the ladies on board. The main sail is bulky and quite old and has to be renewed. However because of the excellent sailing properties of the ship, we had a wonderful day.

WARNING ⚠️ SCAM!! , Rubens, on the day of booking, told us that the boat is not ready and postponed until August 5th. Arrived at the appointment, no one!! And he tells us on the phone that he wants to postpone again and asks us for our Iban. We blocked the transfer!!!

We took this boat but we did not take into account that the speed would depend on the wind and we had a day when there was no wind at all, so we were going very slow. Our boss José recommended that we go to a very cool place that was closer so it would take less time and so we could take advantage of the day and we loved it. José was super friendly, he helped us a lot, he talked to us and explained many things to us. I would definitely repeat but maybe I would think about taking a boat that had a motor, because sailboats depend a lot on the weather. Despite that, we had a great day and I recommend everyone who goes to the Algarve to spend a day by boat to see extraordinary places that could not be seen any other way. I recommend taking biodramine because you are quite dizzy, especially when standing still.
