RiB hire Sardinia

[Minor Incident]

Hi all, been a while

I'm going on holiday to Sardinia in a few weeks and interested in anyone's experience of hiring an 8 to 10m RIB for a day on the water.

We are staying near Porto Rotondo on the date we are looking to hire.

If you have a recommendation for a reputable boat hire company in that area and what I should be considering as payment, I'd be happy to hear from you.

Thanks Gary

There are several RIB hire places in the SW corner of Porto Rotondo. I don't remember the names but have walked past them plenty - easily found on google and bookable in advance, or you could just walk up. You definitely need current ICC and passport for bareboat charter. VERY nice area. Prices are very cheap: about €200/day at the smaller shabbier end, say 6.5-7m and 5-6 years old, and €4-500/day for a swankier rib, say 8m and 200+hp and ~3 years old. At 10m you are verging on them insisting on a skipper rather than bareboat.

we used one where the small footbridge was, sorry can’t remember their name but easy deal it was in June.

Thanks and good to hear from you, Rafiki tells me you're well

I've taken a look at your suggestions for an 8m + RIB and found one at €350 for a Cayman Sport 26 (2023) so will likely go with that.

All the best Gary (cannot seem to login to my ogaryo account at the moment)

Thank you, I'm considering booking in advance through Click Boat
