About me

Mi chiamo Francesco e sono proprietario e skipper della mia splendida barca. Sono curioso e soprattutto entusiasta, che cerca la piacevolezza nelle cose che vive, di viverle con semplicità e di condividerle con gli altri.

My experience

Sono sempre stato affascinato dal mare e soprattutto ho sempre desiderato viverci a stretto contatto. Per questo, nel 2002 ho deciso di passare dal windsurf alla vela conseguendo la patente nautica, così da avere una barca tutta mia. Da allora ho partecipato a regate d'altura (come la 'Roma per tutti' 565 miglia e 'La Mini Giraglia'), conseguendo anche ottimi piazzamenti, ho attraversato e continuo ad attraversare tutto il Mediterraneo. Ho fatto decine e decine di traversate; dalla Francia a Nettuno e poi da Nettuno, dove è ormeggiata la mia barca. Mi muovo abitualmente verso Sardegna, Sicilia, Pontine, isole Flegree, arcipelago Toscano e Corsica!

First experience on a boat, really a nice surprise. Too bad for a day of rain and rough seas that did not allow us to carry out the entire program.

Life-changing experiences: Four days in the Pontine Islands with photographer on board

Relaxing holiday despite the not exactly favorable weather that did not allow us to fully enjoy the natural wonders of the Pontine. On the other hand, we were rewarded by an unexpected encounter with dolphins that filled our hearts with joy, a [hidden]-sabi moment par excellence. Experienced skipper and very helpful, patient and attentive. We had the pleasure of enjoying sailing, complete with a practical lesson. Well maintained and clean, comfortable boat (even without the frying pan). All also seasoned with useful tips on how to make videos and photos that can convey the right emotions of life at sea, and beyond. Overall a very positive experience, definitely to be repeated. Thank you Francesco on our behalf. Valentina, Vittorio, Linda and Gianni.

Life Changing Experiences - Week in the Pontine Islands with photographer on board

Francesco is an experienced skipper with a thousand adventures on land and sea to tell. Panoramas and hidden corners of Ponza and Palmarola definitely live up to expectations; Francesco is generous with advice on how to best capture these moments. On this trip, the weather conditions caused the renunciation of Ventotene and drastically reduced sailing, In general, I would not recommend the experience in August: better to choose other periods.

Clean and very pleasant boat, with teak deck, capable, kind and demanding captain the right way, who also made us sail and maneuver :) and he took us to beautiful caves with the dinghy. Second time for me at the Pontine but with new discoveries and always a water and wonderful views.. No desire to go ashore. Recommend!
