boat hire in Malta · Acquamarina-06 — Bavaria 40 Cruiser (refit 2016) (2009)
Description of Gilles's sailboat
Sailboat Acquamarina-06 Bavaria 40 Cruiser (refit 2016) 12m
is a Bavaria 40 (12 meters) equipped for high seas cruising : Solar panels, watermaker, rigid tender .... It can comfortably take 7 people on a trip in the best safety conditions. When chartering, I accommodate for only 4 people on board, occupying the two double cabins aft, with a private bathroom. Perfect for two couples or a family with 2 (or 3) children. The boat is only rented with its owner and skipper on board. I am a qualified coastal and offshore cruising instructor and I can take you for a coastal cruise or a long voyage, to initiate or perfect you in sailing or let you enjoy the trip without participating in the maneuver. For the spring of 2021, the boat will be available from Golfe Juan during school periods and from Golfe Juan or Ajaccio during zone B school holidays. For summer, cruises are possible in Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily and Malta. The boat will be based in Ajaccio, the schedule is on Ajaccio's announcement. I invite you to let me know about all your questions and navigation projects or the organization of festive events in the port or at sea via the Click & Boat messaging. Looking forward to welcoming you to our region. See you soon on board!

It was a great experience! We enjoyed each moment! I’m very appreciated Gille helped me with my sickness and eventually I felt amazing! It was a birthday of my beloved person and Gille gave me a special offer. Thank you so much! Now we have marvelous memories and photos from Malta!
Excellent experience with great skipper Gilles!
Gilles was the most wonderful host. He got back to me quickly on our very last minute request! He was extremely attentive and made it easy for us to have a gloriously blissful day. The day we spent on his boat was by far the biggest highlight during our time in Malta!
Gilles! You were amazing and we truly enjoyed the day trip with you and your home! Loved the sailing experience and water activities. It was a great day and best last charter in Malta for my friends and I. Forever grateful for the wonder relaxation of a day we got out of it! Hope to see you around in the future! Recommend this fully if you are looking for a calm and relaxing adventure! This is his home and Gilles was very accommodating! Thank you 😊
Gilles was amazing. Firstly, the price was very reasonable. 3 cabins, a nice deck with lots of places to rest inside, snorkel gear, fishing equipment, storage, it’s his home that he happily shares with us. He has a nonchalant nature about him in a good way: he cares for us, and he hosts people on his host not just for money but also because he enjoys it. He took us where he suggested and the places we saw such as the caves were breathtaking. Gilles was super friendly and let us use the boat how we pleased in a responsible manner. He is a professional and I highly recommend him and his boat
Our day with Gilles was absolutely perfect, and so much fun. He is an excellent shipper as well as a pleasure to be with. The boat was also in perfect condition. I strongly recommend Gilles, you won’t regret it! :)
Excellent trip, magnificent views, the boat is superb, Gilles is very nice! We had a blast!!
We had a great day with Gilles. He welcomed us very well and we felt very comfortable. We recommend 100%.
An exceptional day, out of time with Gilles on his boat. We had a good time for my bachelor party. The landscapes are incredible. Gilles knew how to completely adapt the program according to our wishes. The boat is magnificent, sunbathing at the front, aperitif at the back in the shade. Aperitif prepared by Gilles as well! The paddle and masks provided allow you to fully enjoy the sea. Only one question remains: when are we going back? Thank you Gilles for sharing your passion for navigation and your joie de vivre. Goodbye!
Fantastic, Giles is a perfect captain, I would like to return in the future!
We had a great time with Gilles. Everything was perfect. Thank you again for making this EVJF so memorable!
Wonderful!
Gilles is a very pleasant skipper, with a sense of service, hospitality and the customer! Very well equipped boat, you feel very comfortable on this one, warm atmosphere on board, in complete safety. To advise, to do again, to follow in his round-the-world trip! Good luck to them both ... see you soon ?
Pargait and delicious welcome from the skipper!
We were a group of 9 friends, we had a great day. Gilles is super welcoming, very flexible for the course of the day, he listens to the wishes of the group. There is something for everyone, lazing on the boat, learning to sail or more sport with the paddle! Super good atmosphere, we highly recommend it was great! Gilles is an enthusiast with whom sharing is at the rendezvous!
Great afternoon spent on Gilles’s boat as part of a bachelorette party, Gilles is very friendly and welcoming!
Great cruise with Gilles, who was particularly welcoming and full of little attentions as part of our friend's EVJF. Very communicative and pleasant, we were able to discover sailing with his great instructor advice. I highly recommend.
Top day, good humor, friendliness, weather. all were made available for us to have a comfortable day. Gilles is very pleasant and made us participate in the maneuvers of the boat to the extent of our skills. I recommend with pleasure
Travel as a couple with a teenage girl. We spent four very pleasant days with Gilles on his Bavaria 40. The owner, captain of the sailboat is a great professional, we can perceive his anticipation of the phenomena, which allows us to navigate in complete safety. Gilles explains to us everything we want to discover, learn or revise about navigation. He is very calm and an educator. Guests can therefore be active on their boat or let themselves live, everyone will find what they are looking for. Gilles delighted us (because he is a gourmet) and as we shared the same musical tastes, we were able to share that too! We therefore actively recommend sailing on the Aqua Marina with Gilles. Do not hesitate, you will have a good time there!
