About the experience

The River Craft 50 Fly is a comfortable, elegant, and fully equipped yacht, refitted in 2021. It features a large bow cushioned area that can comfortably accommodate 12 people, allowing them to sunbathe while cruising. At anchor, you can choose to sunbathe on the bow or take advantage of the full-beam swim platform for dips in the water, equipped with three ladders. The boat has three cabins and two bathrooms, which can be used for changing if necessary. A spacious dinette area and a galley equipped with an oven, burners, a dual-station coffee maker, and three refrigerators are also featured. The aft quarters, sheltered by an awning and a privacy curtain, can comfortably accommodate 12 people seated in a horseshoe-shaped arrangement around the buffet table. Inside, there is room for another 8 people around the table. We provide guests with snorkeling masks, inflatable mattresses, stand-up paddleboards, and electric jet skis. During the cruise, guests can troll for bonitos, amberjacks, dolphinfish, little tunny, and tuna. All guests will be offered a welcome cocktail and an aperitif. We specialize in organizing experiential excursions to the Marine Reserves, particularly the Isola delle Femmine Marine Reserve at Capo Gallo, the Secca delle Formiche Marine Reserve at Capo Zafferano, the Ustica Marine Reserve, and the Sunset Aperitif.

    Completely blindsided. The captian was great and the overall day was incredible and Click&Boat initially made it easy for us to rent and book, but I do feel like the costs were not clearly explained at all. I was under the impression that the $461 would cover the boat, and then the driver mentioned that it would be $599 including gas, boat, and welcome drinks and appetisers. I had not originally saw that Click&Boat charged me the $461 already, so then when the captain charged me $599 I thought that was the full price. I was so wrong. I paid $461 through Click&Boat, $599 to the driver, and then found out that drinks were not included or appetizers and I had to pay almost $10 a beer. We ended up paying an additional $460 for drinks while also bringing our own on the boat. I can get over the amount we paid for the drinks because it is what it is, but I feel completely lied to by Click&Boat that we had to pay them AND the driver. I will actively tell all my friends family and anyone who will listen that Click&Boat is a SCAM unless y'all refund me the $461. If y'all do that and change your booking language to be more clear, I will use y'all again as we rent boats in every city we travel to multiple times a year. Paolo the driver was amazing and did his best. The only thing that I would be more clear on his AD is that you are NOT able to bring your own food/drink, and what the cost of it would be on board. Also, should definitely have mentioned what destinations we would be able to go to. We did not know we would only be able to go to Mondello beach or pay an extra $1,000 to go to another beach. We had a great time, but when you expect to pay $600 and end up paying $1,500- too large of a difference. please contact me at [email protected] to coordinate a refund of some sort.

    Zero communication, the owner was not clear and transparent and took advantage of the fact that it was the first time we rented a boat ... so I highly recommend to those who want to rent from Mr. Paolo not to trust and leave nothing to chance, rather to stay very careful and ask for all possible and imaginable receipts
