About the experience

Departing from Arzal, I will be your captain on board to accompany you on various possible sailing routes.

A day trip will include passing through the lock and cruising on the Vilaine River towards Piriac-sur-Mer, Île Dumet, or Penerf.

A weekend trip, depending on the wind, will take us towards Quiberon Bay and the islands of Houat or Hoëdic for an overnight stay, or we can stop at the ports of Crouesty, Port Haliguen, or La Trinité-sur-Mer.

The aim is also to help you improve your sailing skills:

- essential maneuvers and knowledge for piloting a sailboat
- orientation relative to the wind
- reefing and speed management
- mooring and much more!

    Vincent is passionate and enthusiastic. Between providing sound advice, he knows how to delegate the boat's handling when the situation and the helmsman's skill level allow, and how to smoothly take over in more challenging moments. A perfect balance of passion and teaching skills in a very friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to discover the joys of sailing without the hassle.

    Three days spent with Vincent, from Crouesty to Houat, Hoedic, Belle-Île, Quiberon, and La Trinité-sur-Mer. Sun every day, but also with varying degrees of wind, dolphins, and a great mackerel catch⛵, all in a good mood and with the precision and rigor necessary for sailing. ? The boat's bonus: its electric motor for calm weather ? The skipper's bonus: a great teacher and knows all the best places in Quiberon Bay ? I recommend without hesitation!! Thank you Vincent for these 3 days.

    Thank you for this wonderful, timeless moment of sharing experiences, exchanging ideas about navigation, and sharing your passion for sailing! Thank you also for your teaching skills, patience, and attentive attitude with both adults and children! One adult and two children, aged 8 and 11, came to discover sailing on a sailboat, and we were delighted. A beautiful, sunny weekend from Arzal to Houat, with a sailing trip perfectly tailored to the wind and weather conditions by Vincent. A wonderful experience! Thank you for this wonderful weekend!

    Excellent day! There were four of us plus Vincent for a trip from Crouesty to Houat. We all took part in the maneuvers following Vincent's clear instructions. There was a regatta spirit: the autopilot was not activated and Vincent is constantly looking to optimize the boat, which has shown us a whole range of tricks. Good, friendly conversations. We recommend!

    We have just spent an excellent, very exotic weekend with Vincent on his sailboat, TOP! Vincent is a very welcoming person, very educational and he talks a lot which is very pleasant. We learned a lot about sailing, he is very passionate. We had a good laugh too! Going through the lock is really a nice stop to do. We were able to take the helm, raise and lower the main sail, set up the genoa. We made our stopover in the small port of Quiberon with a visit, a little drink on the terrace, and in the evening a great restaurant facing the port! I recommend 100% if you want to escape for a weekend!

    A great weekend! Vincent was super welcoming. He suggested that we spend the night, before our departure, in the boat at the dock in order to start the adventure as much as possible with great sensations. He taught us a lot in 2 days. We were able to take the helm, raise and lower the main sail as well as the genoa. Visit the island of Hoedic at its best. Super nice little restaurant. Head full of memories, new sensations, and thank you again Vincent for your kindness and this great first experience in a sailboat.

    A great experience with the very friendly captain Vincent. Sailing, for real! Don't expect to spend 2 days sunbathing on deck, you'll participate in the navigation! If you want to enrich your sailing experience, go for it. Vincent knows how to share his sailing expertise with good humor and generosity. We went from Arzal to the island of Hoedic where we spent the night at anchor in a bay. Hoedic is a very nice place where the 3 of us spent a good evening in a small restaurant. Vincent is always reassuring despite the adventures related to navigation: lack of wind, timing of the tides, night in the swell... a beautiful trip which will be cherished memories. Thanks for everything Vincent.

    We had an excellent sail with Vincent, who introduced us to living space aboard his first 27 which, despite its small size, offers beautiful interior and exterior spaces. Vincent is extremely welcoming and warm, he gladly shares his good plans, his experience. He was able to concoct a navigation that exactly met our expectations. In two words, it was great!

Despite rough seas, the day at sea went very well, the departure as well as the arrival with the passage through the lock is very pleasant! I highly recommend this sea trip!

    We had a great day at sea with Vincent. Our 2 children (and the parents!) loved the beautiful navigation on the Vilaine then to Piriac, along the beach of the gold mine. Vincent is very educational, he adapts the navigation to our desires, shared his experience with us and gave us good advice so that we can all progress. It was a real pleasure, thank you again.

    I spent a pleasant and wonderful day with Vincent. The possibility of learning and having all the advice possible around sailing, navigation and everything that may be related is just more than at the rendezvous. Vincent is a captain who knows what he is doing and you will be guided as needed to get the best advice. I highly recommend the sea trip with him and his boat which even in light winds advances without problem. We were able to take the time to chat, eat together before leaving and all this in a good mood. I wanted to discover the cabin for the first time and I'm not disappointed, it comforts me to continue sailing. A big thank you to Vincent who knows how to accompany you so that everything goes as well as possible and that the day is great.
