A perfect week of sailing and discovery of a highly seaworthy catamaran. Bruno was key in planning the perfect trip in a region we did not know and made us very comfortable with a great handover. Un catamaran très marin et incroyablement confortable, et merci Bruno pour le programme de navigation et la très complète prise en main. Nous reviendrons !
Bruno is a great skipper full of kindness and patience even with the liveliest children, we had an extraordinary time in a dazzling environment he shares his love of sailing while adapting ah it's fleeting with astonishing ease truly a nice person to know
A big thank you to Bruno for the wonderful day spent. Everything was perfect
How lucky we were to come across Bruno, the best skipper! Everything was perfect, Bruno is super responsive, accommodating, efficient and ultra friendly! It's flawless, the boat is also very pleasant, spacious and well equipped. Looking forward to sailing together again while listening to Bruno's great playlist :)
Bruno is a great skipper, very friendly. We had a great day. The boat is fantastic, easy for multi-generation families, very well equipped, comfortable. The ride was magnificent, Bruno knowing the region perfectly. Experience to be repeated.
A week of family catamaran cruising - a great vacation. Thank you Bruno for your availability and for the advice you gave us. Renting your catamaran was a great experience... and enjoying your presence in your
We had a great day with Bruno and his boat. We were two families with 6 children aged 10 to 16 years old. Everyone was very happy, everyone found what they wanted: beautiful sailing between the island of Aix, Fort Boyard and La Rochelle, moments of joy and relaxation on board, swimming, escapades on land, lessons. exciting sailing experiences...full of good memories. We highly recommend Bruno and his beautiful catamaran!
Very good family sailing with Bruno, an excellent skipper, full of humor who knew how to adapt to our family and share his passion! We recommend Bruno and his Escapade boat. We lived 4 days with 9 adults without stepping on each other's toes.
We booked Bruno's catamaran for 1 day. It was an exceptional moment with complete peace of mind thanks to Bruno’s experience. The itinerary proposed by Bruno was also very good. Thanks to Bruno for his adaptability and sharing of experience. I recommend with my eyes closed!
We rented 3 days for a first family navigation. Bruno was great every step of the way, especially a detailed presentation of the cat and navigation tips. The cat is efficient and very pleasant to live with. A real success!
We spent 3 wonderful days on Bruno's boat, very comfortable, very well equipped and quite easy to use; Bruno welcomed us with kind attentions (a bottle of chilled Pinot in particular) and above all gave us his time to take charge of the boat (harbour maneuver and sailing at sea). He also gives very good advice on the steps to take and we spent a wonderful night at the anchorage on the island of Aix with a very nice little visit to the island, which is really something to do. Thanks Bruno.
sailboat ok, clean and very nice owner
An excellent welcome, valuable advice for having a good time, unfailing availability from a distance to respond to the little hassles of everyday life, help in handling the boat which gives confidence from the start of the cruise. What more? Thanks Bruno.
Bruno, a very friendly, welcoming gentleman who asks you to disturb him!! ???, in short, it's perfect, thank you Bruno
3 days and 2 nights in paradise. Bruno is not only very friendly but also a teacher and likes to communicate without ever getting upset during maneuvers, which is very pleasant. The boat is very comfortable and pleasant with lots of different spaces for everyone to enjoy. In short: to do again!
Great 3 day cruise! We wanted our daughters aged 2 and 13 to discover cruising, while participating in the manoeuvres. The whole program was completed to perfection on Bruno's super boat, who accompanied, coached and supported us :) Thanks again !
Great boat and great owner: Clear and fluid communication, super friendly welcome on a boat that sails well and is really well equipped. Everything is there for the crew to have a great time!
Thank you Bruno for granting my request for this day trip a little off the beaten track. To have been conciliatory and attentive. We understood each other and I thank you for that. Thank you also for the welcome at the pontoon on the way back.
3-night rental: TOP! Bruno is extremely helpful and gives very good advice on stopovers and anchorages. In addition the weather at the TOP!
Comfortable boat for cruising. Well equipped. Nice space to eat and clear view on the back. Friendly and responsive owner. Serious rental.
Fabulous 4 day weekend. A clean boat, maintained with all the comfort and performance expected. Bruno is available, accommodating and full of very good advice. the little extra that makes the difference, you arrive with prepared berths, comfortable bedding and duvets as well as towels available: royal. Thanks to Bruno and his Boat :)
Excellent weekend spent aboard Bruno's catamaran. The Open 40 is a good compromise between comfort and sailing sensations. In addition, Bruno is very accommodating and pays attention to lots of little details that make life on board all the more pleasant. I recommend without hesitation. THANKS, Thomas
Bruno is an owner as we would like to meet at each rental. (Welcome, availability..) We really had a superb stay aboard a comfortable catamaran, and recommend it without reservation.
4 day rental without skipper very nice welcome, very well equipped boat, very pleasant to live in port, at anchor and in navigation. runs well and easily 8 knots in 12 knots of wind. thanks to Bruno's advice, we took a cruise on the Charente to Rochefort, magnificent! La Rochelle play area very pleasant, islands, bitters and wind! easily accessible berth, free parking, delivery to the pontoon of a large area. we will come back without hesitation!
We spent 4 dream days (weather lady was also at the meeting) as a family with Bruno (2 adults, 5 children, 2 of whom were 19 months old…). Our skipper was very caring, communicated his passion for sailing to the whole family, made us an "ideal" program for sailing with children and manages all the maneuvers with great serenity and a great experience acquired over the course of his nautical career. The whole family was sad to leave the pontoon, the catamaran and Bruno… Book with your eyes closed! Thanks Bruno!
A moment out of time on Bruno's boat, with Bruno as skipper. This boat is super well laid out and very comfortable for 7 or 8. The berths are spacious, there is plenty of storage everywhere, you can do real cooking there. It is very efficient and comfortable even in heavy weather and Bruno is very welcoming, very open, very accommodating and knows the sea and the region very well. I recommend and will come back with pleasure to sail in Atlantic waters. Only downsides, the weather but here nobody can do anything about it! and the dinghy which deserves a slightly more powerful engine!!
We found a very well equipped, clean and functional boat, a friendly welcome, clear explanations and advice on the ideal program. Result: two days of family happiness in the pertuis Rochelais. Thanks to Bruno and his Escapade. Francis
