Sailboat Merleblanc56 Dufour 38 Classic 11.4m

Departing from Locmiquélic, our Merle Blanc is ready to help you discover southern Morbihan. For the destinations: Belle-Ile, Houat and Hoëdic on one side, Les Glénan, Concarneau and Sainte-Marine on the other. All accessible on quick journeys. The Dufour 38 Classic is a very seaworthy boat, fast and easy to maneuver with a short crew (despite its 11m and 1.9m TE). It is equipped with semi-high seas for your safety. It is equipped with all the electronics necessary for peaceful navigation. A beautiful wardrobe for all weather: fullbatten mainsail in lazybag, GSE, Staysail and Jib as well as an asymmetrical spinnaker in sock. In terms of comfort, 3 large cabins, 1 beautiful saloon facing the side kitchen for conviviality. Annex (with HB if necessary) to reach the coast from the anchorage. On the leisure side, you will find an inflatable paddle and some equipment for snorkling. In short, enough to spend beautiful weekends and a beautiful week on the South Brittany Coast. Our sailboat is not rented for regattas.

Good boat. Very well prepared by its owner. Sharp knives, which is rare! A mention all the same for the aging teak deck and whose surface can become slippery when wet + joints that age and release black. Otherwise, it is a boat whose drainage in the cockpit and at the level of the skirt are not very well designed, therefore dirt and algae that deserve regular cleaning.

Excellent boat, very comfortable and well equipped. Just a problem with a new but capricious annex engine, reported to the owner who will make the necessary adjustments. Excellent cruise had with all weather!!

Olivier's sailboat is very pleasant to sail, reacts very well to the wind, the presence of the sock spinnaker and a real plus. It is an owner's boat that we feel very personalized, adapted, fitted out/equipped and ready for regular use. Olivier is very accommodating for the check in and check out times, It will be a joy to sail again on this sailboat if this time the engine of the annex works ?

Brilliant week spent aboard Merle Blanc. Even with all the comforts on board, the boat sails really well at all speeds, coming up very well against the wind. The boat is well maintained, we can see that Olivier really takes care of it. On the other hand Olivier is very accommodating and responsive, nothing to complain about!

Olivier is very welcoming and accommodating: thank you for the quality of these contacts! His boat is very well maintained, the sails in very good condition, as is the whole boat. Finally, small details that are ultimately not: many fenders (super safe), some condiments on board or others (cap, sailing gloves…) in case you forget them at home. I recommend !

We spent a very pleasant week with a reduced crew (2 people) in July 2020 on Olivier's sailboat. Very good battened mainsail. The sailboat goes well upwind notwithstanding its small draft (1.4 m). Overall, a very well maintained sailboat.

Olivier bends over backwards to solve a problem if it arises. Maximum flexibility during take-back. Fins, masks, fishing equipment, dinghy, motor, paddle option make Tiguidou a boat ready for cruising. A little effort for routine maintenance (greasing here and there, replacing light bulbs, ...) and a breeze jib would make Tiguidou a perfect boat. For rent for a great vacation.

Tiguidou is an Océanis 350 which fully meets its program. His landlord was very accommodating, cordial and reliable (+++). I fully and sincerely recommend this reference.

Very comfortable and safe sailboat with its shallow draft and exterior gps. Not efficient in light weather but no surprises. A bowsprit for the spinnaker will be welcome. Very good times spent with friends on tiguidou!

Quite a few things that didn't work on the boat: the fresh water pump, the guide bar, no dinghy engine. The boat is not very young and needs updating. (e.g. wall cladding) Otherwise Olivier was very welcoming and attentive to try to find solutions. very available. so that's a good point. We nevertheless had a very good week.

Very comfortable boat despite some technical malfunctions without too much importance. Without being a beast of the meadows, the boat is very pleasant downwind. Olivier is friendly and welcoming, all in all a good navigation.

Nice weekend on tiguidow which is a comfortable and family boat! Olivier is very welcoming and provides you with all the equipment of his boat! I recommend for those who advocate quiet Nav in exploit mode rather than regatta!

Olivier is always so welcoming and facilitating. Her boat works well, as soon as the wind passes 10 knots, very well equipped, with a very comfortable and bright saloon. Unbeatable value for money, for a boat that will allow you to discover the islands of the region with its small draft. To redo

Depuis tout jeune, je faisais beaucoup de planche à voile et dériveur, plus quelques sorties avec mon oncle qui avait (et a toujours) un voilier, actuellement en tour du monde. Après quelques semaines de location, nous avons sauté le pas et trouvé un premier voilier de 7m avant de changer pour LULU plus habitable et fonctionnel pour nos petites sorties loisirs en famille ou avec des amis. Très pris par le travail , nous profitons de LULU surtout pour des sorties à la journée sur l'Ile de Groix mais essayons de nous organiser quelques week-end plus loin vers Belle Ile ou les Glenan. -- 1992 (4 semaines) : equipier sur un voilier 15m, de Cannes aux Canaries
