How do you receive your small boat? For over 20 years, we’ve been shipping your small sailboat to the most remote areas: Tahiti, Noumea, California … or Brehat, Corsica, Peloponnese, UK … whatever your location, we have the solutions to get your boat to you.

Many of you ask us, “But how do you do it?”

Here are a few examples to set the tone. Whatever your destination, we take the same care in preparing your little sailboat or boat.

How are L’Atelier des Gazelles boats delivered?

First of all, it’s true, we prefer to welcome you to the Ateliers de La Gazelle Des Sables. It’s an opportunity for us to show you what goes on behind the scenes, and to take you on a tour of our unusual production site – a beautiful setting, rare technology… it’s well worth the detour. In that case, allow a good 2 hours – we’re as chatty as ever! And your beautiful Gazelle or friendly Lascar deserves a little concentration to get you ready for her christening. Sail fitting, trailer presentation, engine operation – everything is gone through in minute detail, so you’ll be up and running in no time. We love sharing these magical moments with you.

As a second option, when the calendar allows, we can join you: Patrick or Marie will deliver your small boat themselves. Once again, we’re here to support you in this momentous occasion.

Delivery Europe

A little further away? Then one of our partner carriers will take over. Our network of local partners enables us to deliver easily within 48 hours throughout the European Union. And always with the greatest sense of service. Our small boats are often transported exclusively by tarpaulin-covered truck, with tailgate: you can be sure of peace of mind during transport and unloading.

Overseas delivery

And for sea shipments, all our small sailboats can benefit from an unbundled offer, more economical than using a full container. In this case, we take care to pack them in pallet boxes. In 15 years, we’ve never had a single surprise on arrival: only the smiles of overflowing emotion.
