Tosco's word
The AD Boats Salona 45 suits small groups of six who want a sailboat at €286 per day for cruising to Cala Violina or Talamone without overspending, though the skipper and licence requirements remain unclear. The Della Pasqua & Carnevali Dc 10S targets crews of twelve who prefer the speed of a 660 hp engine toward Elba, with a mandatory skipper and a €500 rate that climbs quickly with fuel. Overall scores are identical, but the sailboat's traveler rating is brighter, while the motorboat relies on 26 solid reviews; it all depends on whether you seek a calm, economical sail or a comfortable motorised outing.
