Capraia and Corsica with sailing instructor

The skipper is the one who ruined my holiday, despite the wonderful weather and the excellent relations with the rest of the crew. Despotic, arrogant and offensive, he made us get to Elba at night, and then left immediately -in spite of every complaint- preventing us from seeing even a single beach because in his opinion "the beaches of Elba are ugly" (!). Once in Baratti where he had decided to go, he forbade us to go ashore threatening otherwise to leave us there. According to him, it was too late (there were two hours left) compared to the scheduled time of departure, which he had not communicated to us. I suggest choosing a holiday with this skipper only if you like YOUR opinion on YOUR holiday counts zero.

Skipper prepared from the sailing point of view and able to manage situations related to navigation. Absolutely poor organizational and management skills of the staff on board. With a "sanguine" and extremely rigid character, but also sometimes "offensive". The 25/08, the last real day of vacation, was ruined by the attitude of the skipper and consequently the whole period was heavily conditioned. On the contrary, the entire crew was a great experience.

Fin dall'inizio alcune informazioni di organizzazione sono state aleatorie: registrati su sailsquare eravamo in 7 ma a bordo ci siamo ritrovati in 9. Eravamo 6 di equipaggio pagante più skipper/comandante, armatrice Elena e marinaio. Durante la vacanza sono emersi alcuni problemi dettati da irrispettosi comportamenti da parte di Elena e marinaio, a partire dalla spesa per la cambusa a cui non tutti hanno partecipato ma bevuto e mangiato si, al non presentarsi a bordo dopo essere scesi a terra all'ora concordata e al fatto che fumavano negli spazi comuni all'interno della barca. Al momento dello sbarco ci è stato detto che avevamo causato un danno a un display del gps. Chiediamo una prova che lo attesti e un parere di un tecnico e se effettivamente ci sono problemi, siamo disponibili a sanare il danno. Allo stesso modo chiediamo anche copia del contratto stipulato a bordo. Ma Elena si rifiuta e scompare. Inacettabile.

8 seats and we were 9. In addition to the commander there was Elena and her boyfriend who was on the contract BUT NOT ON SAILSQUARE and did not participate in spending on galley / water / diesel. BE CAREFUL not to scrounge alcohol (especially) and food and not to believe in: "don't worry, we organize ourselves", the conditions in which the tender is driven and the absolute NOT respect of the internal common areas where they smoked. Worry about when you hear the phrase "who breaks pays".coincidentally the penultimate day begins to fix a working display (exposed to the sun throughout the holiday and which is covered only that day) where there is a bubble. At check out Elena tells us that this damage must be verified by the technician. I ask you for a copy of the contract and I say that if you prove that the damage is caused by us you can contact a lawyer and ask for compensation.elena refuses and disappears. For your protection: the fridge floods every day, a toilet is always broken and a light does not work.
