We had a fantastic week sailing Serge’s Sun Light 30. We particularly enjoyed discovering Île des Embiez for the first time and learning more about Paul Ricard’s life and legacy. We also sailed over to Porquerolles and explored the beautiful islands and coastline around there. The boat was very well equipped and spacious enough for me, my wife and our 18-year-old son. Everything worked well, and Serge had provided plenty of extra equipment on board, including fishing gear, snorkelling equipment and a canoe, which gave us lots of opportunities to make the most of the sea. Serge was extremely flexible and accommodating with the handovers and took the time to explain everything clearly. He was a pleasure to deal with throughout. We had a wonderful week and would highly recommend both Serge and his boat. We would happily rent it again.

Super easy to organise the paperwork, great handover and walk round of the boat. Boat was excellent, loads of space, handled well and some good pace from the engine.

"Superb afternoon with Thierry! We were a group of 6, and everything was perfect. The boat is spacious and of high quality, and Thierry knows the area like the back of his hand. We visited very beautiful places and swam in stunning locations. Highly recommended for those passing through the area."

Really lovely boat just as pictured, clean and spacious with lots of room for 8 persons. We hired for a corporate event. Michael was responsive and really helpful with building an itinerary and suggesting lunch options. Would strongly recommend booking - we would hire again.

Absolutely perfect day. Our skipper (Sylvain) was the ultimate professional whilst also being personable and engaging. He constantly checked that we were happy etc. The boat was immaculate and we had a great day diving off and swimming in the most perfectly crystal clear blue waters. Definitely recommend this boat and company

Fantastic rental experience from start to finish. Jeremy was great with the handover and the boat was exactly as described, and in great condition (and cleaned between the 2 days of my rental!). My family had a great time over the 2 days we had the boat and we will be renting again next year!

Unforgettable birthday on the water! We had the most amazing boat day with our wonderful skipper Jean-Pierre. He was warm, professional, and went above and beyond to make my birthday special — even surprising me with complimentary wine and a birthday cake! The views were breathtaking, and his knowledge of the area made the day even more memorable, taking us to beautiful bays and underwater caves. JP has everything you need on board, including paddle boards, snorkel gear and more. Such a lovely man — we can’t thank or recommend him enough! We are already planning our next trip with Jean - Pierre.
