Le Brigantin, moored in Hyères, is an old tuna boat built in Vendée in 1940. After a magnificent career as a tuna fishing vessel, cargo transporter, and diving travel, it is now the source of beautiful sea outings to the Golden Islands, off the coast of Porquerolles, with a capacity to accommodate 26 people and a 3rd category.

It is beautifully maintained by its current owner who now wishes to hand over the helm of this traditional sailboat to a new Captain... It's up to you to take over! This sailboat is currently operated in the NUC category (Commercial Use Vessel - division 241).

It is therefore an old working boat that is operated during the season for day trips, with much success for over a decade.
