BlueMax open pro 19 license-free in Porto Santo Stefano

BlueMax Open Pro 19 in Porto Santo Stefano

From Porto Santo Stefano, this license-free boat gives you the freedom to cruise along the Argentario promontory and choose your stops throughout the day. On board, you can reach coves, take your time swimming, or consider a trip to the island of Giglio, depending on your wishes and the sailing conditions.

A compact open boat for seven passengers

The BlueMax Open Pro 19 is a 5.8-meter motorboat, built in 2024 and powered by a 40-horsepower engine. It accommodates up to seven passengers and is rented without a skipper: the listing states that it can be driven without a license. It's an interesting option if you want to sail on your own, while keeping in mind that you need to get familiar with the boat and follow the instructions given at departure.

For on-board comfort, the listed equipment includes a sun canopy, an outdoor shower, a refrigerator and a swim ladder. The sunbathing areas at the front and rear let you settle in between swims. The rental is advertised from 190 € per day; the renters' rating is 4.92/5 based on 15 reviews. The indicated time slot is approximately 9:30 am to 6 pm. A lunch served on board can also be offered in the morning at the time of booking.

A day between the Argentario and the open sea

Setting off from the port, you can cruise along the Argentario coast, stop off in coves and reach Porto Ercole. The trip to Porto Ercole is said to take about 40 to 45 minutes each way. For an outing more geared toward the open sea, Giglio is also mentioned, about 45 minutes of sailing each way. These durations remain indications: plan your route according to the weather, sea conditions and the time you want to devote to breaks. The rental is self-service, without a skipper, and the model is described as drivable without a license.

I would recommend this boat to a small group or a family that wants to explore the Argentario at its own pace, without organizing a guided outing. In the summer season, it's best to book in advance and confirm the times, the possible lunch and the sailing conditions before setting off. It's a lovely way to keep the day flexible, with the port of Santo Stefano as the starting and return point.
