Boat rental in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie · Beneteau — First 31.7 (2002)
Description of Gérard's sailboat
Sailboat Beneteau First 31.7 9.5m
Hello, Pipistrelle and I invite you to discover life aboard a sailboat. You can simply spend the night, sail for a half-day, or sail for a full day. Or better yet, depart from Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie and spend a few days exploring the Île d'Yeu. This 9.50-meter sailboat can accommodate 6 people. It is very well-equipped, and you'll find all the necessary comforts on board. I will accompany you throughout your stay so that you can enjoy it to the fullest. Swimming, fishing, hiking, or cycling—a wide range of activities await you. I will take care of the supplies and prepare simple and varied dishes for you. Pipistrelle has been sailing since 2010 as part of a community program, mainly from March to the end of November. For any questions, you can send me a message via the website at Click&Boat. Whether you're a regatta fan or a cruiser, we're waiting for you. See you soon.

We had a great time with Gérard, he got us involved on the sailboat and explained how it worked. We recommend this outing.
A truly relaxing afternoon, a truly enjoyable time on board. Our skipper, Gerard, is very attentive, professional, and easygoing. We highly recommend the trip aboard the Pipistrelle!! And we'll definitely be back!
A superb sailing trip! Gérard is an exceptional skipper: educational, patient, and very professional. He takes the time to explain things, answer questions, and is truly great with children. We had an unforgettable time in perfect weather. My husband will remember his 40th birthday and loved co-sailing! Thank you for this wonderful experience!
Thanks to Gérard for this last-minute boat trip: super responsive! Very informative and just wanted people to enjoy this experience even if it wasn't too windy ? I hope to see you soon.
Very good stay with Gérard who allowed us to participate in the maneuvers and explained everything to us well. Very warm welcome. Walk on the island of Yeu as a bonus. I recommend without hesitation. We had a great time!
A very good trip at sea with Gérard We had a wonderful time at sea with Gérard on August 7th. He is welcoming, friendly, and takes the time to share his passion. He allowed us to participate in the sailing, which the whole family really enjoyed. A pleasant boat and a great atmosphere on board. Thanks again!
We had a wonderful time with Gérard! He was a great teacher and had a great atmosphere. We'll be back!
Very good. Gérard is an excellent skipper. While our voyage ended with a more than easing wind (and we had a schedule to respect), he was able to rig a symmetrical and asymmetrical spinnaker in record time. Result: My daughter was able to take her surfing lesson on time! To do again!
Lovely little ocean outing
A very pleasant afternoon discovering sailing with Gérard. We were able to participate in setting up the sails, testing knots, steering, and helping with the speeds on board. It is clear that Gérard is passionate about sailing and enjoys sharing his passion, while adapting to his crew. We are already planning to go out again!
Gérard is truly pleasant and patient with children. He knows his stuff, and we recommend him 200%. Thank you, Gérard, for this shared experience, and see you next year for another experience at sea!
A wonderful day spent in the company of Gérard. Despite the less-than-exceptional conditions, we had a great time. Gérard is very friendly and shared his passion for boats with us. Thank you.
A very pleasant afternoon aboard Gérard's sailboat. We were lucky enough to see dolphins. Gérard let us learn the sailboat maneuvers, and it was a great experience! We highly recommend it!
Thank you for this great time Gérard, we loved the experience! We recommend it 100%
Thank you Gérard for this beautiful escapade aboard your sailboat, for your explanations and for the communication downstream and during the trip. It was very pleasant! To do and to do again.
Great experience aboard Gérard's sailboat. Very helpful and caring, we had a great time. I recommend without hesitation.
The boat is splendid. Gérard is very nice, welcoming and passionate! The trip is very interesting. I highly recommend it!
Great family sailing experience with the very friendly Captain Gérard.
A very pleasant afternoon stroll. Good winds, good boat and good skipper.
In the top !
Thank you very much, great welcome and great ride for the 3 of us (couple with 6 year old child), the proposed short half day format was well balanced for our son. Thank you also very much for letting us participate in the maneuvers and sharing your passion!
Great time spent with family. Gérard is very pedagogical and trusts easily even when you are a novice. Great conversations. I highly recommend. For our part we will keep this contact!
Great time with Gerard. We learned a lot of things. It was as pleasant as it was interesting, we will come back with pleasure!! Go for it!
We really enjoyed this day of sailing. Gérard trusts, willingly gives the instructions and the helm to the volunteers. The boat is nice, the conversations too, and all that in a perfect good mood! Thank you Gerard, we will come back with pleasure!
A great moment of discussion, laughter and sharing. Gérard is a passionate and fascinating man before becoming an experienced skipper. Thanks again and well done.
I offered a night and a sea trip to my parents on Gérard's boat. They were very well received and came out very happy with their little getaway!! Participation and explanation of the navigation adapted to beginners and very good atmosphere! Very reasonable price, highly recommend! Many thanks for them :-)
A great time spent with the family. Gerard immediately puts you at ease. He is also very willing for us to be an actor in the outing and therefore easily leaves us in control. He subtly guides everyone and transmits his knowledge in all humility. Top !! Thank you very much we highly recommend.
Very pleasant afternoon spent on the boat. Gérard does not hesitate to trust us to let us hold the helm. To be repeated over a longer period of time!
Beautiful afternoon with Gérard, welcoming and passionate…. To recommend
Very good afternoon on the boat, a real pleasure to learn and discover the boat under the advice of a very welcoming and educational owner.
Superb ride along the coast, with explanations of the operation of the sailboats and full of good humor. Full of discussion and sharing, I would gladly do another round with Gérard!
Fantastic !
great ride with Captain Gérard
Great outing with Gérard and my children. Gérard is very patient and pedagogical. It will remain a great memory for all of us. Thanks again for everything ! Nice continuation.
Thanks to Gérard for this beautiful afternoon of navigation. As soon as we made contact, Gérard put us at ease. Gérard is a teacher and doesn't hesitate to hand over the helm and perform a few simple manoeuvres....while remaining attentive and vigilant. Too bad we weren't able to share a drink with Gérard on the way back, but he had to prepare his boat for the next customers....that will be for next time!
Many thanks for the ride! Quick booking and responsive and more than friendly communication. With superb weather we took advantage at 6 with Gérard, of a more than pleasant ballad. We will repeat the experience for sure!
Thank you for the moment of pleasure (Nino) and for the mackerels
Gérard took us on his superb First for family sailing. We feared a lack of wind and strong heat at the start and finally a light wind rose allowing us a pleasant navigation between the island of yeu and the coast all day. We were able to participate in the maneuvers and discover the secrets of sailing, we even sent the spinnaker on the way back. Angling for mackerel and pollack is a little extra... Gérard is a sailboat pro, you can go there with your eyes closed. Great experience, to do again!!
A truly magnificent day. Gérard is very friendly and handles his boat perfectly. To discover
Great day, Gerard was perfect. Bonus of the day: 20 fresh mackerels and a good tartar in the evening!
Magnificent outing to the island of Yeu with Gérard who knows how to sail his first 31.7 perfectly, a super boat that is well equipped and fast also in light airs. Communication at the top especially for a very late reservation and adaptation to our needs. I highly recommend sailing with Gérard who likes to share his passion for the sea. I wish you success in your projects!
We spent an unforgettable day with Gérard. Beautiful weather for sailing, Gérard is listening. We will be back.
Excellent and friendly welcome
Great experience. Gerard introduces his passion, participates in manoeuvres, at the helm. Too bad the weather was not very favorable. (lack of wind)
Gerard gave us
Wonderful sailing day with Gérard. We will come back with pleasure. Thanks again!
Welcome to the top by Gérard and very nice navigation -
