Tosco's word
The same rate of €500 per day should not mislead you: the Della Pasqua & Carnevali Dc 10S is a 660 hp motorboat, built to carry nine people or more toward Cala Violina or the Elba coast, with an excellent traveler rating of 9.2/10 across 26 reviews. The Beneteau Oceanis 40, on the other hand, is a more intimate sailboat for five to eight passengers, with electric winches and paddle board, but its included skipper and well-kept equipment do not offset the too-few reviews (only 7) and the extra fees for cleaning. If you want power and a large group, choose the motorboat; for a gentler sailing experience and complete equipment, choose the sailboat, keeping in mind that both require checking the skipper and capacity conditions.
