This experience, in a nutshell

The course is aimed at sailing enthusiasts who want to approach the autonomous management of a boat in many of the situations that can happen at sea.

We will put into practice the notions you have had in your previous experiences, whether they are theoretical or practical,

The

captain will operate with RYA

standards

You will have the opportunity to actively participate in a 10-day Full Immersion Sailing course on board a 54-foot boat perfectly equipped for any type of navigation

The aim of the course is to acquire theory and practicality in driving a sailboat in order to make you independent and safer in critical situations.

We will face mooring in

all its facets, at the wheel, with ropes on land, English, mooring in the port

An important and fundamental part will be to plan each navigation with reading and checking the

weather forecast. We will use the Nautical chart to locate the ship point and learn to locate our position on the map at any time. We will sail in a sea that is as welcoming as it is challenging, where it will be necessary to dose the sail area to sail safely and understand the right time to reduce.

A very important part will be dedicated to the roles of the captain in relation to the safety of the boat and its guests, as well as to the ordinary and extraordinary maintenance of the boat also for safety purposes.

We will do a night navigation simulating borderline situations that we could find at any time.

If you have attended a theoretical sailing course or obtained a boat license and you are still unsure about driving or renting a boat, perhaps this is the right experience for you.

The sailing experience with Manuele was magical. He is a formidable captain, attentive to everything around him, always transmitting confidence and passion in everything he does. An exceptional chef who surprises you every day with his dishes. Being able to share this experience with him was a privilege that I wish for everyone. He made me fall in love with sailing, I will definitely come back with him for more adventures.

This holiday aboard [hidden] was one of the best experiences of my life. It was the first time I got on a sailboat and initially I was a bit worried about not being able to sleep and not enjoy the holiday. Manuele, however, made me feel at home from the first moment, cooking excellent meals and taking care of each crew member. Manuele thought about the safety of the group at all times, taking us to coves sheltered from the strong Greek winds to ensure us a peaceful sleep and letting us explore wonderful places. Needless to say, once the holiday was over and she got off the boat, I immediately felt a very strong nostalgia! I can't wait to get back on board [hidden].

Best live aboard sailing trip I have done. The boat was exceptionally comfortable and everything clean and in ship shape ! The skipper was great at helping us learn the ropes to participate in the sailing if we wanted to. I loved having the SUP and snorkel sets on board to use when we moored in beautiful bays. It was terrific to catch fresh fish to eat along the way too. Thanks so much to Manuele for making my first trip to Greek Is such a wonderful experience.

It is difficult to find better: quality, hospitality, facilities, comfort and performance of the boat, courtesy and professionalism of the excellent skipper Manuele, sympathy and great culinary ability of the splendid Camilla, in short: five stars absolutely deserved. We can't wait to get back on board [hidden].
