    Bertram 38 Special de 1988, 12 m et 860 ch, très bien équipé (GPS, sondeur, pilote automatique, annexe, douche extérieure, réfrigérateur) ; l'âge du bateau tempère la note.

Our opinion

Bertram 38 Special: heading out to sea from Punta Ala

Departing from Punta Ala, this 12-metre Bertram lets you enjoy a day at sea in a small group, with a skipper on board. I would recommend it for alternating cruising, anchoring breaks and swims, without having to take the helm yourself. The stated rate starts at €1,800 per day.

A classic yacht, designed for the day

Built in 1988, the Bertram 38 Special is a motor boat with 860 horsepower, designed to accommodate up to 8 passengers on a day trip. It has a double cabin and two berths for any nights on board; the description also mentions a saloon and a kitchen. The spacious cockpit and the large sunbathing area at the bow offer spaces to settle in during navigation or enjoy a stopover.

On board, the listed equipment notably includes a bimini top, an outdoor table, speakers, an outdoor shower, hot water and a boarding ladder. The kitchen is equipped with an oven or stove and a refrigerator; a 220 V outlet is also indicated. For navigation and manoeuvres, the listing mentions GPS, depth sounder, VHF, autopilot, electric windlass and a dinghy with its outboard motor. The swim platform completes the layout for breaks in the water.

A day at sea from Punta Ala

From Punta Ala, you can consider a coastal cruise to Cala Violina or, depending on the itinerary, set course for the islands of the Tuscan archipelago, such as Giglio. Further south, the Argentario, Giannutri or Talamone offer other landmarks for imagining a trip, but their feasibility depends on the time available, the weather and the agreed route: nothing indicates they are systematically included. The rental is advertised with skipper, so the trip is accompanied rather than self-sailed. The listing also states that a boating licence is required; I advise you to check before booking who this condition applies to, since a skipper is provided.

With eight places during the day and only two berths, this boat is best suited to a group that wants to spend time on the water without planning a cruise with several nights on board. For a summer date, it is better to ask early about availability and specify the desired stops: I find this helps to build a realistic day, suited to the conditions of the day.

With 8 places but only two berths, the Bertram 38 Special seems to me built for a day at sea from Punta Ala, not for an extended cruise. Before booking, check who the required licence applies to if a skipper is included: better to clear up this small point.
