Yacht charter in Hyères · Herbulot — Beaufort 14 (1975)
Description of Nico's sailboat
Sailboat - 15m — Herbulot - Beaufort 14
Warning! /!\ Pirate Ship /!\ This isn't your typical sterile, Formica-like, Ikea-style, white gelcoat boat! Aluna is a boat like no other! Unique, incredibly charming and comfortable, with vintage equipment and many repairs done with whatever resources were available. A 15m ketch, completely refitted and redesigned by the owner in 2017, using limited resources. The presence of someone familiar with the boat is essential given the number of unique features of this vessel. Two double cabins are available (I'm keeping one for myself) plus the possibility of adding a berth in the saloon, but 6 people on board is already quite a lot! A boat made entirely of wood, with a "homemade" interior, toilet and hot shower, and a porthole with a view of the fish (a big hit with the kids). The dinghy has a good engine (when it works—don't you have a friend who works on Mercury outboards?) allowing for waterskiing and wakeboarding. Snorkeling equipment (tank, wetsuit, fins, mask, snorkel), fishing gear, a two-person canoe, beach toys, an air compressor with 15 meters of hose and a regulator, and even a six-person life raft (not serviced since 2019... but it's indestructible, right?). The skipper/captain has a friendly atmosphere: musician, smoking allowed, alcohol allowed in moderation, maximum speed 10 knots, no straining the shrouds! And the engine is only started in emergencies! Long live silence and slow living... Available for charter to offset the costs of this money pit and free up funds for general maintenance! Boat can be seen at anchor in the harbor on the Giens peninsula. More photos and videos available upon request.
