Albert and his wife were very helpful to organize our turn in advance and to resolve an engine problem. The boat is well suited for persons who love to sail.

A really excellent experience - Albert is amazing, great English, great owner - the boat was lovely and really well maintained- I would recommend this experience to everyone
Me and 3 friends rent Albert's boat for a sailing trip from El Balis to Minorque. We had a wonderful time on Pim-Pam, the boat is very performant, pleasant to helm and very well maintained. It has good equipment to support a long trip in autonomy. Some navigation tools consist in mobile phones and tablet, but they are connected to devices onboard allowing to get AIS data and sonar on navionics. The battery pack is impressive and allowed us the spend the entire week without any energy problem, charging phones and using autopilot and fridge all the time. As well as the water tanks. Anchor holds well and windlass is powerful which is very reassuring too, and very appreciated The boat itself is quite performant, going upwind with a very correct tack angle. In terms of sails, maybe the front sail is a bit small in comparison with the main. But with the wind condition we had (3-4 Bf) we reefed the main and the balance was good. In general it was a seamless and very pleasant experience to rent Albert's boat. He was very helpful starting from the check-in to the end, and gave us very valuable advises on where to go and what to do. El Balis marina is also super convenient, easy to reach by car. Clubhouse is very nice too... I definitely recommend.
From check-in to check-out, Albert helped us at all times to make the trip a 10/10. The boat has very good navigation, highly recommended!

Albert is very kind and friendly, I recommend him 100% for all kinds of outings.

Albert is attentive and responds quickly to any situation, a luxury of an owner. The Pimpam is a great boat, with the trots expected in a charter, but it resolves very well. A good experience.
All perfect! Thanks Albert!
Albert joined us as a skipper and gave us a small sailing training. It was just an amazing day.
A pleasure to hire Albert's boat. We had a fantastic day and the skipper who accompanied us was very attentive and taught us how to drive a boat with these characteristics. 100% recommended

Very good experience, Albert at all times very attentive, I recommend 100%

Very new boat very well equipped, sails very well with two reefs, also with the solar panels you never run out of energy. Good engine that reaches 6-7 knots. The only drawback is the gear lever that doesn't look good in neutral, and sometimes plays it for you. Cleanliness and communication very well.
The boat, despite being only 20 years old, is a very good and well-maintained sailboat, if you really like sailing it is a very good option

Communication with Albert Hasifo impeccable at all times, comfortable boat and haggler. a 10
