The first extremely positive comment I spend on the COVID emergency. I booked the holiday before the COVID emergency. The management of the emergency period with possible reimbursement and / or postponements has always been very reassuring and easy, both by Sailsquare and Gianluca. The experience was beautiful and I recommend it to everyone. Professionalism of the skipper and quality of the boat perfect. The places are enchanting but living them sailing has a whole other flavor. Being able to help lead the sailboat even for a family that has never sailed was easy and pleasant. Strong emotions in complete safety. Thank you very much, Fabrizio Thank you very much

Gianluca? Ghost skipper! Great personal and holiday presentation card, but the reality was completely different. He was replaced shortly before departure without explanation. The program of the holiday almost completely disregarded: few stages, little real and little attention to the customer. Also due to a technical inconvenience has constrained the days preventing us from visiting the beautiful coves of the island of Elba. We thought we would discover unique places reachable only by boat Instead we saw less than those who took the holiday by land. The only good thing was a very good crew company. Luca & Barbara ----------------------------SUCCNDER RESPONSE------------------Cari Giovanni, Sandra and Luca, I am really sorry to read your non-positive reviews, for which in any case I collect all the ideas for improvement and thank you sincerely. First of all I apologize for not being able to have been physically present in the holiday, due to a personal problem that occurred this summer, know that I followed you throughout the route made, always in contact with the skipper I sent in my replacement, to avoid skipping the holiday. The sailing holiday, by its nature, does not have certain pre-established stages but general itineraries, which then the skipper will confirm or not based on the general weather conditions, being solely responsible for your safety on board. In your case the high pressure and the favorable marine conditions have meant that the proposed destinations have all been achieved: Giannutri, Giglio, Elba. Great I would say! On the other hand, the high pressure that insisted all week on the area and the consequent poor general ventilation over Italy ... they did not allow to sail much ... I'm looking for the way to book the wind but still I couldn't... I apologize instead for the cutlery drawer that has been rightly reported dirty. We have provided for immediate cleaning as soon as reported to us and also the purchase of an additional pan, as you requested, using your report, among other things, to give directions to the team that manages the weekly cleaning. It is now inspected at every crew change and thoroughly cleaned. Despite doing regular and maniacal engine maintenance, the alternator decided to abandon you in the middle of the week. I personally contacted all the couriers to be able to send the spare part to Elba, where you were but, given the period (3 days before mid-August ...) it would have arrived too late. So I asked the skipper to guarantee you (at my expense) a night on the quay in Porto Azzurro, to allow you to recharge your mobile phones and maintain the temperature of the refrigerator ... unfortunately better could not be done. I conclude by inviting you next spring (March / April) to spend a weekend with me in Riva di Traiano, it will be a pleasure to meet you in person and, I hope, earn a few more stars on Sailsquare. Greetings to all and good wind!

Gianluca non lo abbiamo mai visto. Lo skipper é cambiato 3 giorni prima della partenza senza troppe spiegazioni. Per il resto, vacanza decisamente al di sotto delle aspettative. Troppi porti, poca conoscenza dei luoghi, vela al minimo, pulizia al limite, problemi tecnici alle batterie/alternatore che hanno reso complicate molte giornate dell‘unica settimana a disposizione. Per fortuna il gruppo ha tenuto bene. Il resto, secondo ne, praticamente da dimenticare.---------------------------------RISPOSTA SKIPPER-----------------------------------------------Cari Giovanni, Sandra e Luca, spiace davvero leggere le vostre recensioni non positive, per le quali in ogni caso raccolgo tutti gli spunti di miglioramento e vi ringrazio sinceramente. Innanzitutto mi scuso per non poter essere stato presente fisicamente nella vacanza, a causa di un problema personale occorsomi questa estate, sappiate che vi ho seguiti in tutto il percorso effettuato, sempre in contatto con lo skipper che ho inviato in mia sostituzione, per evitare di far saltare la vacanza. La vacanza in barca a vela, per sua natura, non ha tappe prestabilite certe ma itinerari di massima, che poi lo skipper confermerà o meno in base alle condizioni meteo generali, essendo l’unico responsabile della vostra sicurezza a bordo. Nel vostro caso l’alta pressione e le condizioni marine favorevoli hanno fatto sì che le mete proposte siano state tutte raggiunte: Giannutri, Giglio, Elba. Ottimo direi! Di contro l’alta pressione che ha insistito tutta la settimana sulla zona e la conseguente scarsa ventilazione generale sull’Italia...non hanno consentito di navigare molto a vela…sto cercando il modo di prenotare il vento ma ancora non ci sono riuscito... Mi scuso invece per il cassetto delle posate che è stato giustamente segnalato sporco. Abbiamo provveduto ad immediata pulizia non appena segnalatoci ed anche all’acquisto di una padella aggiuntiva, come da voi richiesto, utilizzando la vostra segnalazione, tra l’altro, per dare indicazioni alla squadra che gestisce le pulizie settimanali. Ora viene ispezionato ad ogni cambio equipaggio e pulito a fondo. Nonostante faccia manutenzione del motore regolare e maniacale, l’alternatore ha deciso di abbandonarvi a metà della settimana. Ho contattato personalmente tutti i corrieri per poter inviare il ricambio all’Elba, dove voi eravate ma, dato il periodo (3 gg prima di ferragosto…) sarebbe arrivato troppo tardi. Ho chiesto così allo skipper di garantirvi (a mie spese) una notte in banchina a Porto Azzurro, per consentirvi la ricarica dei cellulari e il mantenimento della temperatura del frigorifero… purtroppo di meglio non si poteva fare. Concludo invitandovi la prossima primavera (Marzo/Aprile) a trascorrere un weekend con me a Riva di Traiano, sarà un piacere conoscervi di persona e, spero, guadagnarmi qualche stelletta in più su Sailsquare. Un saluto a tutti e buon vento!
