A sloop stands for relaxed boating: a calm pace, plenty of seating and enjoying the water together. On holiday you can also rent a sloop or a similar open motorboat, ideal for a day along the coast or on a lake with family or friends. With Ghesia you book from reliable local rental partners.

Who is a sloop suitable for?
- Families and groups of friends – plenty of seating, stable on the water and easy to get on and off.
- Beginners – a sloop moves at a calm pace and is easy to steer. At many destinations no licence is required for the smaller models.
- Those who want to relax – bring a picnic, moor at a little beach and go for a swim.

- Boating licence: in many countries no licence is required for sloops with limited engine power. Each boat shows upfront what is required.
- Deposit: if the rental partner asks for a deposit, the amount is shown with the boat.
- ID: bring a valid passport or ID card.
