Skipperi Reviews 27

A fantastic opportunity for non boat owners to get out there !
Helpful staff and lots of fun!

We have been members now three years and every year service is better. It’s very easy to book a boat and start sailing. The mobile app is very good, and all instructions are clear, from check-in to check-out. Boats are always in good condition and we never had any issues with them.

Easy, boats in good condition, many ports, good application. An opportunity for experiences that not everyone has had, but now has.

Great service for boating without the hassle of owning a boat. This is our third season and we feel we’ve been able to get a boat whenever we’ve wanted (Helsinki area). The Academy helps ensure that users (me included) know how to navigate and keep the boats in good and clean condition.

Easy to use, no hassle. We can just take the boat out and don't need to concentrate on other stuff. The app is easy to use.

I've been really enjoying our Skipperi Fleet subscription. This summer is only starting but last year we explored several fantastic islands in Helsinki area. Lot's of boats and places from where to start the journeys. Great service!

Bergholmen is great place to go with Skipperi boat!

Good customer service at all times. Boats are in good shape and clean. Everything works well.

Thanks for the awesome experience. We just had our fist boat trip with Skipperi’s electric boat. The whole family is waiting for warmer summer days and chance to have a nice picnic and silent cruising with the electric boat 😎

I’ve been an active user since the beginning and really happy for the service! I love boating around Finland and I dont have to worry about maintenance or service. Customer service is one of the best I have ever used: the answer quickly, friendly and are very supportive. Thanks <3

Easy to use service with excellent customer support.

Skipperi Fleet service is the best choice for me. I am a member now for the fourth year and couldnt be happier.

I can have a boat whenever I want and go to the ocean or lake from varios different harbours. Nothing bad to say. Great service.

Skipperi-service is very easy to use and and offers a wide swlection of harbours in Finland. We have visited all of them and drive around 3000 miles per season around Finland.
And their client-service is super! 10/10 points😄

works, no easier/cheaper way to get on the waters for the season imo

Great service! Really convenient as everything is done using an app. Boats are in good condition and there is a lot of harbours to choose from. Highly recommended.

After using this service since they launched, my review has changed from five stars to one. Largely because I feel hugely disappointed with what was promised against what actually transpired.

This service should not be called “unlimited boating” but more appropriately something like “we’re going to nag you and treat you like a child and nothing is good enough”. Seriously, only sign up to this if you want to feel inadequate and as if everything you do is wrong.

I disliked their customer support when randomly mid season I had to cough up a few hundred bucks for fuel - false advertising and hugely money grabbing. Seriously, how desperate are they for a few hundred bucks? Are customers just ATMs to them.

It’s fun for a while but to be honest they don’t seem to understand that they’re a rental company that rents out mediocre boats. You wouldn’t be treated this way at a car rental company or Air b&b with compatible items being rented that are worth far more. I’ve been treated like a child from the start. You can expect the same condescending attitude from their staff.

Don’t bother. False advertising. Rude staff.

PS, don’t even bother cleaning the boats through and through - you still get moaned at and they’ll find anything to complain about.

WARNING - DO NOT RENT YOUR BOAT TO SKIPPERI

My friend and I rented our boat via Skipperi on August 24, 2019. The very reason is that the company is very clear that it is safe to rent through them. They assured us that we did not have to worry if something was going to happen to our fine boat. In that case, we would be insured against all types of damage.

Those who rented the boat hit a rock pretty badly in lake Mälaren. And there is no doubt that they were injudicious. It all ended with us having to pay SEK 6,000 out of our own pocket. It is totally unacceptable.

We know for sure that group hiring our boat did not use GPS, instead they looked at the depth gauge. Also. It is not the renter who has driven the boat but her friend instead. They have acknowledged that. In addition, we have followed the boat ride with tracker and it shows that the renter was close to hit another two rocks. You can then ask what would have happened if the boat had sunk ??? Then we would probably have had to pay everything. What kind of security is that?

Skipperi builds its entire business concept that it should be safe to rent out their boat via them. So why are they not taking their responsibility and demanding the money from the renter who has obviously misbehaved in several ways. It's really rogue. Now my friend and I are sitting with a lot of costs ahead. In addition, we lost the last warm days of the boat season as the boat was taken on turns for repair. So thank you for it. No.

Think very carefully before you rent your boat out via Skipperi. A very rogue company that does not take its responsibility in any way !!

WARNING - DO NOT RENT OUT YOUR BOAT HERE!
- Rented out my boat on August 24, 2019 with the information that this was safe and something would happen so everything was insured. It ended with the tenant leaving due and I had to pay SEK 6,000.

Preferably the senseless behavior of Skipperi that puts this cost on me as a boat owner. So I want to warn everyone who reads this not to rent your boat on Skipperi.se

- Firstly, the lessee did not use the boat's GPS, they used the depth gauge ??
- It is not the tenant who drove the boat, it was her friend.
- When I follow where the boat has gone they have been close to 2 reasons.
- What would have happened if the boat had sunk?
- Skipperi is a rogue company that does not help boat owners
