This experience, in a nutshell

Given its favourable position, the destination is perfect for a relaxing holiday surrounded by nature. Embarkation and disembarkation will be in San Vincenzo. A few miles from the mainland is the Island of Elba, the largest of the Tuscan Archipelago. The planned itinerary combines short sails with sport, relaxation, nature, to discover unique landscapes provided by the microclimate of the island that welcomes spring and where the sea breeze combines with the blooms of the Mediterranean scrub.

For everyone, it will be possible to visit the picturesque local villages and hamlets, often characterized by craft markets or have dinner and enjoy a drink outdoors with friends.

On the days we have planned on board it will be possible to sail to discover the coves and beaches that have always characterized the island, experimenting in a few miles various gaits, moorings and maneuvers or simply dedicating yourself to relaxation or cooking on board.

I had wanted to sail to the Grenadines for a long time. I am overall quite satisfied with the holiday, despite a bit of tension between a crew member and the captain

Canary-Martinique Atlantic crossing. Adventure of a lifetime!

I am sorry to have to point out the serious shortcomings of the skipper in making the crew find a boat in order and safely to face such a long journey. No sail of respect, the bow old and worn, serious leaks of diesel in the bilge resulting in unbearable smell under deck, we finished the gas a week before arrival ... These are just some of the serious shortcomings of the skipper.----------------------SPOWER OF THE SKIPPER----------------------Caro Federico, I read your review and report the following. I did 7 Atlantic crossings, one of which was completely solo: I don't think I have to take sailing lessons. I can't hide from you that the relationships were difficult with the whole crew. What you call "old and worn sail" brought you all a day early to Martinique, so I do not consider your criticisms valid because with the facts I have shown something else. Unfortunately, contrary to what you told me, none of the crew was actually able to stay at the helm and in the only half hour in which the autopilot did not work there were several moments of difficulty. You boarded believing you were taking a regular sailing cruise and not an Atlantic crossing of over 20 days in the middle of the ocean. I can't even forget your behavior when after being sick in the bathroom you didn't bother to clean in the slightest and left the task to me. The only thing I would like to give you, in part, reason for concerns the loss of diesel, caused by a job done badly by the mechanic and then solved.
