About us

Presentazione dello Skipper Francesco, skipper sotto copertura, tutti lo conoscono come Consulente Finanziario e Private Banker del il gruppo Banca Intesa. Serio professionista affidabile e preparato ma in realtà appena può toglie la cravatta e…….. Il suo incontro con la vela avvenne all’Isola D’Elba, molti anni fa: fu amore a prima vista, ovviamente! I primi rudimenti li apprende navigando con Piccoli Cabinati grazie al fratello Alessandro, allora Skipper professionista. Approdo scontato alla più grande scuola di vela del mediterraneo, il “CENTRO VELICO CAPRERA” La sua passione per il vento ed il mare crescono e si cimenta in piccole regate di circolo con monoscafi e piccoli catamarani, Il desiderio di mettersi costantemente alla prova lo porta a specializzarsi nella navigazione d’altura con cabinati di caratteristiche e lunghezze molto differenti fra loro con trasferimenti e Crociere.

Francesco is a reliable and scrupulous skipper, the boat is comfortable and comfortable. The itinerary was, albeit with some defections due to the climatic conditions, beautiful.

Northern Corsica: the sailing wonder!

The holiday was not up to the lavish expense (1039 + galley + ports) and the behavior of the skipper was unacceptable: I was attacked with swear words on the third day stopped in port for having asked for information on what to do. Arriving on the first evening, the skipper informs you that due to the weather you are not going to North Corsica. We think for the first few days, then the weather improves and yet we stay between the south-east of Elba and Capraia. He could make up for it by having us do numerous coves a day or the entire Tuscan coast, but the skipper didn't want to do much, he often slept or stayed in a room with his escort. I've never seen a skipper who takes the best room in the bow for himself, letting the payers sleep outside because of the heat, or in the dinette, since the rooms at the stern were hot and noisy. The roadstead holiday was therefore more in port. Never done so few boat baths. Finally, the indicated age for which I had chosen the 30-50 trip was fake, it was 41-68.

A week around the Island of Elba

Simply extraordinary, a connoisseur of the places, the wind, the sea. But there is something greater than the sea, which few have: a beautiful Soul. And that of Francis shines through in every gesture, in every smile, in every silence listening to his wind. Thank you for everything Conandante.
