Yacht charter in Ars-en-Ré · Valiant — Vanguard 620 (2006)
Description of Philippe's RIB
Rib Valiant Vanguard 620 135hp
I do not rent for half a day which corresponds to 3 hours of navigation because there are too many constraints. Please note the time ranges given by Click & Boat are theoretical. We are constrained by the tides. Given the location you can leave around 3.5 hours before high tide and return maximum 3.5 hours after. Look at the tide times to know what time you want to leave and return in order to schedule appointments. Moored at the pontoon in the outer port of Ars en Ré, this boat is ideal for Ile de Ré: - take your family and friends to lunch at La Patache, have a picnic at Trousse Chemise, at Banc du Bucheron or eat an ice cream at La Martinière in St Martin, - go water skiing, wake boarding or tubing, - go get some fish in the sluice or some crabs at Les Baleines, - tour the Ile de Ré, - Go to Ile d’Aix Navigation is made easier by the presence of a Lowrance HDS Live 7 GPS sounder with the Active Imagin 3 in 1 probe Approved for 17 people, I only accept that you take on board 10 people maximum. This is the number of self-inflating vests on board. The boat is regularly maintained and the 135 HP Honda 4-stroke engine changed in 2024 with electric controls runs like clockwork. the following latest works have been carried out: In 2024: - repair of the seat in front of the cockpit - engine change with a Honda BF135CV DLDU with electric controls for more flexibility - change of speedometers and rev counters - change of control handle to an electric version with trailing position - creation of MNA 2000 network and connection of navigation instruments to it (counters, GPS) - overhaul of the 2 electric inflators - bow repair below the waterline In 2023: - Repair of the ski mast well - change of control handle - Complete change of seat foams with open cell foams and backsplash repair, - Complete repair of the electrical circuit and control buttons, - change electric inflator pods - Change hydraulic steering joints - starter change - addition of gasoline water separator filter.

Prices exclude fuel but consumption is reasonable considering the 4-stroke. At the end of the rental, the boat manager brings 2 jerrycans and you pay in cash for the gasoline paid pro rata. The boat is rented clean and must be returned clean. If you do not wish to clean it, you will be asked for an additional €20. I left a mask and snorkels if you want to go see the funds.

We had a beautiful day, watched dolphins toll around and went waterskiing!! Perfect boat for our group (7 people).
Great day out at sea. Very easy check in and check out. Different to many rental shop including Blondeau next doors there is no need to fill up on petrol in one of 3 harbours in the island before returning the boot; the owner does it for you and charges the price without any surcharge.

Naviguant depuis mon enfance, j'ai enseigné également la voile aux états unis durant 3 mois à Marthas Vineyard. Je pratique tant la croisière hauturière avec des amis que la navigation côtière ou la plongée en apnée. La mer est ma seconde nature.
