One of the first questions everyone asks when planning a boat day in Saint-Tropez is: which boat for how many people? The answer depends on more than just the headcount. The type of outing, the age of the group, the budget and the desired comfort level all play a role. Here is the complete guide to matching the right boat to the right group size in the Octopussy fleet.
2 to 4 people: the Zodiac Medline 7.50m
For a couple or a small group of up to 4 people, the Zodiac Medline 7.50m is the ideal choice. Manoeuvrable, fast and affordable from €750/day, it allows you to explore the coves of the gulf with complete freedom. With or without skipper for those holding a coastal licence.
6 to 8 people: the Zodiac Medline 9m or Axopar 37
The Zodiac Medline 9m accommodates up to 10 passengers with a cabin and toilet. The Axopar 37 Sun Top is the sport day boat option for groups of 6 to 11, with its integrated Sun Top and impressive 45-knot top speed. Both are available with or without skipper.
8 to 10 people: the Med 42 or Fjord 40
For groups of 8 to 10, the Med 42 is the all-inclusive option: skipper, drinks, towels, paddleboard and snorkelling kit all included. The Fjord 40, with its Scandinavian design and fully equipped wet bar, is perfect for groups who want a social day on the water. Both include a professional skipper.
