Simple to drive. Yours to enjoy.
You do not need previous boating experience. Before you leave, our team explains how to operate the boat, use its controls and safety equipment, and follow the navigation rules on Lake Como. You will know how to set off, return and contact us if you need help.
Life jackets and a sun canopy are provided, so you can settle aboard and enjoy your time on the water. Choose a peaceful outing, share the views with your partner or bring your friends: the boat is reserved for you.
