boat hire in Pornichet · Seamaster — Seamaster 815 (1978)

Vincent is always very welcoming

Serious and friendly owner. Nickel boat. I highly recommend it.

Effective and well-detailed communication before and during the rental with Vincent. The boat is simple and well maintained, very good value for money!

Vincent made our arrival easy and took the time to introduce us to his boat. The boat was clean and the cabin bedding is particularly comfortable. Sailboat in good sailing condition, we were able to go to Noirmoutier and the island of Yeu while sailing between 4 and 7 knots depending on the winds. Good times in this maritime area.

Excellent stay aboard the Anneau en rit! Thanks to Vincent for his availability.

Vincent is a true Super Owner: he has very carefully maintained and made the boat reliable, which is impeccable. But that is nothing compared to his kindness, his availability and his long experience which he willingly shares. With complete confidence I vote 5/5

The boat is reliable, Vincent, pleasant and very available. Everything went perfectly.

We rented the boat for 3 days for two people. RAS very pleasant owner I recommend.

L'Anneau en rit is very well maintained and well equipped, nothing was missing! We had a very pleasant navigation between Pornichet and Noirmoutier. see you later !

Good location for visiting the islands.

Vincent's Seamaster is a habitable sailboat of a little over 8m which is a little dated but which Vincent knew how to perfectly maintain and renovate. It is seaworthy, enters the wave well and remains pleasant to steer even with heavy canvas reductions. We had it for a week and in different conditions, from calm to: "well, we'll have to take a second reef soon", without any particular problems. For its cleanliness, the condition and maintenance of the boat and its ease of use, I would happily return to sail on this Vincent boat which, in all the exchanges we had, was always responsive, very fluid in communication and very accommodating.

A well-equipped and clean boat, maneuverable and with a set of sails in very good condition. A attentive and very accommodating owner. We highly recommend.

The owner was very accommodating! We recommend!!

Very good weekend spent on this boat, which is well equipped and well maintained. Good communication with Vincent, whether it be handling the boat, advice on navigation, timetables, etc. Special mention for those who would like to sail with children: the cockpit is quite closed and safe, and you can put a travel cot in the saloon :)

We had a very good stay on this sailboat, two people plus a dog. We recommend Vincent and his well-refurbished Seamaster. Very warm welcome from Vincent, who remains available during the rental period to provide technical support if necessary. The boat is very easy to use and is quick to get started. It is well equipped: lazy jack, pilot, furling genoa, depth sounder, tablet with Navionic suspended at the entrance to the cabin... Which makes navigation and maneuvering easy even with a small crew. The boat is clean, healthy and the cabin rather comfortable The sailboat has, in addition to its inboard engine, an emergency outboard engine, which is a very good point in terms of safety. It can be used in the annex to provide great freedom when anchoring (be careful, it is a little big for the annex and installation can be laborious). For the organization of your navigation, we had between 5 and 15 knots of wind, we most often sail between 2 and 3 knots (GPS). We shouldn't be too optimistic about the Seamaster's speed, we recorded a short-lived peak of 5 knots on short reach in gusts of 20 knots.

Alright!

Great boat for a week of cabotage in the islands for two people. Great welcome from Vincent who will take the time to show you how the boat works. Don’t hesitate to ask him for advice on maneuvers :)

Thank you Vincent 3 days of exceptional sailing, Pornichet/houat. Comfortable and very seaworthy ship. Vincent is available and gives good advice. To do and redo ?

Excellent owner, friendly, warm and who takes very good care of his boat. Very good experience.

Great welcome from the owner

Vincent takes good care of his boat. These explanations for handling the boat are perfectly clear.

Great rental. An old sailboat very well restored. Vincent is very available and responsive in case of problems (which often happens on a sailboat): very pleasant. Strong recommendations

Vincent's welcome was really great. We took the time to do a few motor maneuvers in the harbor before heading out to sea, just to have the boat well in hand. The boat is clean and very healthy. It is certainly 45 years old, but it is well designed. The lazy bag, the furler and the return of the ropes to the cockpit make it perfectly usable for two. The Seamaster is ideal for an outing in Brittany weather. Well sheltered in the cockpit, we fear neither rain nor spray. Well trimmed, she is neutral at the helm and cuts her course at 5 knots upwind and probably 7 knots at full reach. Enough to go to La Turballe and come back in about 4 hours. Vincent loves his boat, and likes to share with those who love and respect the sea. A very nice day of sailing.

Very warm welcome from Vincent, who is very accommodating, and with whom communication is easy and efficient. The boat is clean and well maintained with the essentials to navigate and live on board for a week. Only small downside, following the rain during the week, the boat remains wet for a very long time. It is still quite acceptable.

Excellent boat for a first family. Vincent took great care of us. THANKS

Pleasant and comfortable boat, consistent with the description Very good welcome and communication from Vincent THANKS

Great weekend on Vincent's boat. As advertised, very pleasant boat, easy to handle. Owner very friendly and available!

Thanks to Vincent and his companion for their welcome. We were able to do an excellent little family sailing aboard the “Ring of Laughs”. Sailboat clean, safe, very well maintained and equipped. Vincent deserves the title of super owner!

Professional, very welcoming and friendly, don't hesitate ?

Very good stay on board, perfectly in line with the announcement and Vincent is very accommodating!

Vincent was very accommodating in the rental. The boat is reliable, easy to handle and perfect for enjoying a nice trip around the estuary and Noirmoutiers

Very nice experience at sea on Vincent's boat. First of all, an excellent welcome and excellent preparation of the boat by Vincent and his partner. The boat is very well maintained and everything is done so that the tenants have a good time at sea. Everything is in perfect working order and comfort. Navigation is easy and comfortable. The only small problem for me was the reverse gear of the inboard engine which makes certain maneuvers perilous. Vincent had warned me but I (only once out of the four arrivals/exits) had a little trouble in a narrow port. Note that the second outboard motor can also be used for the boat thanks to a chair in case which is very reassuring. Really a good boat and above all a great rental company. Thank you Vincent and see you soon I hope

Good boat, well equipped and comfortable. Vincent is welcoming and gives good advice. I recommend

I strongly recommend Vincent and his boat. The age is present (for the boat) but it is very well maintained and is very pleasant to navigate. We left with 4 friends, the proximity is there, enough to spend a very good time on the island of Yeu and Noirmoutier. Vincent is very pleasant and knows his boat very well, which is reassuring.

Vincent took the time to explain / present his boat to us. Sailing on the "Ring of Laughs" is easy and pleasant, I would gladly rent this boat again.

We were very well received by Vincent, the boat is as advertised and the equipment is very correct I recommend

Very good boat and owner

Vincent is very welcoming and very friendly. It was a nice experience.

Simple and efficient sailboat. Super welcome from Vincent, very accommodating.

The boat is not very new, but it has been completely renovated. There is everything you need and everything is in perfect condition. Vincent is a passionate person who does everything to make your stay as good as possible.

Very good exchanges with Vincent He did follow up on a problem on the engine side. The sails are of good quality, the boat was clean. The laughing ring has held up very well over time. Separate throttles and selector with idle high enough to take into account when moving in the port. The pontoon space near the sanitary facilities is practical. Safety equipment is in good condition, portable VHF only on board. Navionics tablet very comfortable for navigation

Vincent lived up to his reputation as a super owner. Arranging, friendly, good advice for navigating. The sailboat is pleasant, the sails in good condition. 2 of us sailed to Noirmoutier. This will have to be done over several days. Thank you for your welcome Vincent. Good wind and See you soon.

Vincent gave us a warm welcome, and provided good technical support throughout our stay. The boat is well maintained, but it has the comfort of the 80s and does not have modern navigation equipment. But for coastal navigation, with good preparation on the map, associated with the tablet, it does. The boat works well under sail, securing by force 5 to 6 thanks to its deep cockpit.

Compliant boat, good sailboat under sail, old original engine, very good communication with the owners.

Reliable and safe boat, perfect availability and welcome from the owners. We spent three very pleasant days on board, together, passing through Hoëdic and La Turballe.

A big thank you to Vincent for his welcome, his well-advised advice. Despite her age she is a boat that works well, well laid out, well fitted out, well maintained and recently refitted. Comfortable but there were only 3 of us. Perhaps also habitable at 4/5 if not large sizes. Rental to advise

Super boat, simple but very efficient for its size, well maintained despite its age. Basic comfort, but there is everything you need for 3 or 4 people. Vincent and his wife are accommodating and available. Perfect for a weekend or more between the islands of southern Brittany or Vendee. I will not fail to rent this boat again.
