BLUEMAX 5.80MT WITH SUZUKY 40HP ENGINE, no license required, in Porto Santo Stefano or BlueMax open pro 19 without license in Porto Santo Stefano?
The two best-rated boats: Porto Santo Stefano · 8.1 vs 8,1
Tosco Two nearly identical 2024 BlueMax boats, but the Open Pro 19 comes out ahead for your wallet: at €190, it saves you €10 a day on an already low rate, and its value-for-money score of 7.9 beats the 7.3 of the BLUEMAX 5.80MT. The latter fires back with better equipment rated 8.2 against 7.6, thanks to its shower and refrigerator, and perfect traveler reviews (10/10 versus 9.8), which makes it ideal if you care about comfort on board and reputation. The BlueMax Open Pro, on the other hand, is the smarter choice for a group of 7 that simply wants to head out to the coves of the Argentario without breaking the bank, since its trips to Giglio are rated higher (8.1 versus 7.9); the difference is slight, so choose based on whether you prioritize equipment (BLUEMAX) or savings (Open Pro).
vs
BLUEMAX 5.80MT WITH SUZUKY 40HP ENGINE, no license required, in Porto Santo Stefano or Dufour 445 grand large with skipper in Porto Santo Stefano?
Two budgets: €200 versus €429 · 8.1 vs 8,1
Tosco The Dufour 445, at 429 euros per day, targets groups of 9 people or more who want a complete sailboat, skipper included, with paddleboard, diving and towable tube for cruising toward Giglio or Giannutri. The BLUEMAX, at 200 euros, targets crews of up to 7 who prefer a recent motorboat, no license needed, for simple swims from Porto Santo Stefano. Both show an identical overall rating of 8.1, but while the sailboat stands out for its outings and equipment (8.2), its deposit and unclear port fees weigh on it; the motorboat, with its 16 reviews at 10/10, nonetheless has gray areas on fuel, so choose according to your budget and your appetite for the open sea.

vs
Dufour 445 Grand Large with skipper in Porto Santo Stefano or Ryck 280 in Porto Santo Stefano?
Two well-rated boats: Porto Santo Stefano · 8.1 vs 7,8
vsBLUEMAX 5.80MT WITH SUZUKY 40HP ENGINE, no license required, in Porto Santo Stefano or Ryck 280 in Porto Santo Stefano?
Two budgets: €200 vs €400 · 8.1 vs 7,8
Tosco Two hundred euros separate these boats, and it changes everything: the BLUEMAX 5,80MT CON MOTORE SUZUKY 40CV, rentable without a license in Porto Santo Stefano for seven passengers, whereas the Ryck 280 requires a license and offers no skipper. The Ryck, longer and more powerful, is aimed at those who want to head to Giglio or Giannutri with full equipment, but its package remains vague on schedules and the deposit. If you want simplicity without paperwork, take the BLUEMAX and its perfect traveler reviews; if you have a license and double the budget, the Ryck offers more boat for eight people.
My advice: Porto Santo Stefano
The BlueMax open pro 19 at €190 stands out for its value for money, almost on par with the BLUEMAX 5,80MT at €200, both license-free and well equipped for seven passengers; the Dufour 445 grand large at €429 with skipper remains the smart choice if you want a spacious sailboat without a license. Watch out for the pitfalls: the Tornado 38 requires a license despite its skipper, a contradiction to verify, and the Ryck 280, recent and high-performing, is only rentable with a license and no skipper option. As for the Azimut 52, its 2003 build year and unclear license conditions dampen its otherwise excellent traveler reviews. If you want to sail without constraints, aim for the two BlueMax; for a large group, the Dufour; otherwise, the Ryck 280 is the best equipped but requires your license.
