What a 6 hp day looks like
With 6 hp you don't cross the sea: you potter around the mouth of the Vie river on the Vendée corniche, with the Île d’Yeu straight offshore, picnic on board, swim at anchor. An oceanic westerly regime, the channel entrance negotiated with tide and swell — the operator adjusts the day's area accordingly.
Booking smart
License-free boats go fast: demand peaks from June to September, with the Saint-Gilles sardine as the gourmet stopover, and the port's fleet can often be counted on one hand. The calmer morning slot is also the most pleasant.
