Sirocco is a nimble 2020 Maxus 26 sailboat based in Port du Crouesty, your gateway to the crystalline waters and hidden anchorages of Brittany's Gulf of Morbihan. This intimate two-cabin cruiser sleeps six comfortably, making her ideal for small families or groups of friends seeking an authentic sailing escape without the formality of larger vessels. With her shallow draft and responsive handling, she's equally at home threading through narrow channels lined with pine forests as she is reaching across open water toward the Îles d'Arzon.

A week aboard Sirocco unfolds at a gentle pace, dictated by wind and tide rather than schedules. Your mornings might begin with coffee in the cockpit while consulting the onboard GPS and chart plotter to plan the day's route—perhaps toward Île aux Moines for a leisurely lunch, or deeper into the gulf's labyrinth of islets and peninsulas. The single head is compact but functional, and the galley's refrigerator keeps provisions fresh for simple dinners prepared underway or at anchor. The tender dinghy opens access to secluded beaches and tiny fishing villages where you can wade ashore for a glass of local cider or explore on foot.

Evenings are where Sirocco's charm truly reveals itself. Drop anchor in a protected cove as the sun mellows the granite cliffs, and the gulf settles into silence broken only by the occasional call of herons. With just six berths and two cabins, there's an easy intimacy aboard—no crowding, no queuing for showers, no sense of being herded. The 15hp engine provides reliable propulsion in calm conditions, but it's the sailing that defines your journey here, where the Gulf of Morbihan's variable winds reward attentive helmsmanship and reward you with the kind of serenity that makes landlocked life feel distant.
