About this yacht
SailChecker Expert View
Who it suits This is a cracking choice for small groups or families wanting a modern, well-equipped sailing experience without the commitment of a larger yacht. At 11.8 metres with three cabins and six berths, it strikes a nice balance between intimacy and comfort for up to six people.
Real standout features The 2024 build means you're getting current tech, solar panels, inverter, and electric toilet show the owner thinks about comfort and sustainability. Racing sails suggest it'll actually perform well in a breeze, while the bow thruster and outside steering position make handling significantly easier, especially if your group isn't entirely racing-hardened.
Value and practicality A €5,000 deposit on a modern 11.8m is reasonable, and the spec looks solid for the size. You're getting a boat that won't nickel-and-dime you with gear failures mid-charter, solar panels particularly help keep energy costs down on longer trips.
One honest point We don't have the base location listed, so we can't advise on airport logistics or how accessible this yacht is for international visitors. Before booking, confirm where the boat operates and factor in any connecting flights or transfer times from your nearest major hub.

The marina & destination
Based at Port de Bormes-les-Mimosas, in Bormes-les-Mimosas, France. Freeride is operated by Open Sail.
Quai d'Honneur
Port de Bormes-les-Mimosas sits on the central Côte d'Azur, offering direct access to the Îles d'Hyères (Porquerolles, Port-Cros, and Levant) within a few hours' sailing; week one typically involves exploring these protected anchorages and the quieter eastern approaches to the Maures coastline. The marina works well for charters seeking relatively sheltered waters with established anchorages, though the Mistral can funnel down from the northwest and warrant careful timing. From here you can reach Saint-Tropez to the west or push east toward the Lérins Islands near Cannes, giving you flexibility depending on wind conditions and your experience level.
