Beneteau Oceanis 51.1 in Puntone di Scarlino

Oceanis 51.1 in Puntone: heading for the Maremma

Departing from Puntone di Scarlino, the Beneteau Oceanis 51.1 opens the way to the Tuscan islands and stops along the Maremma coastline. I recommend it if you want to organize a crewed sailing trip, alternating days at sea and breaks at anchor, while keeping enough space on board for ten people.

A large sailing yacht designed for ten passengers

Built in 2022, this Oceanis measures 15.94 meters and accommodates up to 10 passengers, with 10 berths spread across 5 cabins. Its engine is 80 hp. The rental is offered without a skipper: you must therefore hold the required boating license and be able to sail independently. The listed rate starts at €567 per day.

For onboard comfort, the listing notably mentions a watermaker, hot water, a refrigerator, Wi-Fi and a USB port. Electric winches, autopilot, GPS and VHF complete the listed navigation equipment. Outside, you will find a sun awning, a spray hood, a table, a shower and a swim platform. The dinghy with its outboard motor and the paddle board also let you make the most of swims stops. The bow thruster, electric windlass and electric toilets are also part of the equipment list.

From Puntone to the Tuscan islands

From this port on the Maremma coast, you can consider sailing to Elba or Giglio island, depending on the weather, the rental duration and your itinerary. The description places Elba about 22 kilometers from Marina di Scarlino and mentions short legs, suited to a family pace, such as sailings broken up by stops. Talamone, Argentario and Giannutri mark out other possible landmarks further south; Cala Violina, for its part, reminds you that beautiful breaks can also be found near the coast. These destinations are not an included itinerary: it is up to you to plan the route and check the conditions before departure.

This sailing yacht will suit above all a crew capable of taking the helm and sharing life on board. In summer, I advise you to book early and plan the stages according to the wind and everyone's wishes. If you dream of a week among coves, islands and nights at anchor, this departure from Puntone deserves a place on your list.
