An alternative to boat ownership
Cédric, 47 years old, a shopkeeper in Southern Brittany, once owned a small boat in his youth, but he hadn't had one for a long time and was thinking of buying one. With Liberty Pass, he finally found the alternative that suited him. "We never have room on a pontoon or it takes years of waiting. Taking it out to sea and putting it in the water and taking it out again each time is complicated and you have to be able to store it. I don't have the car and the hook for that. Right now, I have a boat, a Bombard 6.50 with 115 horsepower, for the year, which is like mine." he summarizes.
Alexandre, 35 years old, who sails in the Mediterranean, on a SeaRay 270 SDX for the stroll, the aperitif and a little wakeboarding, finds the economic solution. "It costs me less than just the berth, when everything is included, even the boat. For the amount of money I spend on it, I wouldn't have gotten that boat!"
Navigate as you wish, when you wish
With a maximum number of 6 subscribers per boat, access to the boat is not a problem. Any excuse is good to go sailing "I've never had a single problem sailing. I go out on average three times a week. I work every morning and sometimes by 1 p.m. I'm done and by 2 p.m. I'm out fishing. My wife and children start to want to come. We go to the Glénan for a picnic. Before, we used to wait for our friends to call so we could go out sums up Cedric.
Alexandre insists on the ease of the Liberty Pass booking tools. "The Liberty Pass application and the reservation schedules are hyper simple and ergonomic. We are autonomous and we don't lose 1 hour each time for the check-in like in classic rental."
A boating professional at your service
The other advantage for the Liberty Pass subscriber is to be relieved of technical problems related to the boat, and even to benefit from the assistance of a professional. "Everyone takes care of the boat, because it's a bit like his own. But if there is a problem, we call Stevin, who manages Liberty Pass in Concarneau, and he comes. The other day at 7am, the boat was a bit deflated and I couldn't find the right nozzle for the inflator. I called him and 10 minutes later, the boat was inflated and I was on the water. There is no need to refuel* in Concarneau, Stevin takes care of it. No hassle, the service is great!" concludes Cédric.
*the amount of fuel is the responsibility of the customer. Fueling procedures are different at each base.
