Top 30: Bateaux en Maremme : Sans skipper

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).

Tosco The Lagoon 400 S2 from Punta Ala comes out ahead of the Hidden Tuscany Note (8.0 for both, but 8.6 vs 8.8 on equipment and especially 8.9 vs 8.0 on traveler reviews at 9.4/10) and it targets groups of 9 people and up, starting at €843 per day. The Bali 4.3 Anemos, on the other hand, is newer (2021) and more affordable at €556 per day, but it only sleeps 8 people and its extras (arrival pack at €850, skipper at €229/day) push the bill up. For a small group sticking to a budget, the Bali; for a large table ready to pay for comfort, the Lagoon.

Tosco The Lagoon 400 S2 from Punta Ala takes the lead on the boat and the experience: score 8.0, equipment 8.6, trips to Giglio or Giannutri, and 9.4/10 from travelers. It suits anyone who wants a recent, complete catamaran without a skipper, while accepting that you need a license and that deposit conditions should be checked. The Cranchi from Scarlino, rated 7.9, appeals more to groups who want the option of a skipper, with a more flexible formula.

Tosco On price, the Bali 4.3 catamaran from Marina di Grosseto comes out lighter at €556 per day, with a well-equipped 2021 boat and 8 berths, ideal for a group of 5 to 8 who want a recent boat without a skipper, provided they hold a license. The Cranchi Mediterranee 41 from Scarlino, at €900 per day, is more expensive and older (2003), but its traveler rating of 9.8/10 from 29 reviews and its 12 spaces suit a large table of 9 people or more better.

Tosco The BlueMax Open Pro 19 in Porto Santo Stefano wins on budget: €190 for the day for 7 passengers, no license or skipper needed, with a sunshade, shower and fridge on board, and a traveler rating of 9.8/10. The Bali 4.3 Anemos from Marina di Grosseto, for its part, appeals with its 13 m catamaran sleeping 8 and its more recent equipment, but it requires a license, costs €556 for the day, and quickly adds up with extras (arrival pack at €850, skipper at €229/day). For a day out with friends without a license, it's the BlueMax; for a week with family and real sailing comfort, it's the catamaran.
