This experience, in a nutshell

For those who are fed up with cool sailing on floating campers and want an experience based on responsible and conscious but still fun nautical tourism!


Welcome aboard my 9 meter boat from 1974. My name is Luca and I am your skipper, The goal of my sailing proposals is to take you with me on a journey to discover life in harmony with the sea as I have been lucky enough to live it since childhood with my family.


The boat is not huge but has all the necessary spaces for a comfortable cruise for 4 people. Nothing is missing in the kitchen to prepare excellent meals, the bathroom extends throughout the beam with generous volumes and double bunks to sleep in comfort with a memory-foam top.


The strong point is the outdoor spaces, being a boat designed for offshore navigation for 6 people operating in the cockpit. The outdoor spaces between the cockpit and the deck up to the bow are truly generous with a sundeck with cushions at risk of becoming addictive to how comfortable it is ;) and the possibility of setting up a hammock during the stops to make the afternoon nap more pleasant.


A cruise suitable for those who, like me, love a dynamic and sporty life from which to draw energy and feel in harmony with nature, friends, following the wind, the sun and even the rain in some cases. A way to really appreciate the simplest things in life, the sense of participation in on-board activities where even washing dishes with sea water to save precious fresh water, becomes a unique experience with your feet in the water and the excuse to take yet another dip in the blue of the Elba sea. The determination to reach the goal by sailing even with little wind, the pleasure of enjoying the time available, what is always missing when you are on land and which is never of the same quality and intensity. What do you think?


Are you one of those who believed the sailboat was only for coolies, always with an aperitif in hand and hunting for the most popular destinations where to go shopping and party? I really hope not, because you would miss out on the truly unique, spontaneous and sincere aspect that only the sailboat and its life on board is able to offer you.


Without giving up the aperitif ;)


So for your next holiday, give it a thought, I'm sure you'll be fascinated. I look forward to welcoming you on board.



Fair winds to all, Luca

The program includes the circumnavigation of the Elbe to be carried out to the EAST or to the WEST depending on the weather conditions. If the weather permits, we could add a stop at the nearby island of Capraia, about 5 hours of navigation. Also depending on the weather conditions, we will linger more on the south or north coast based on winds and currents and consequent swell to spend beautiful quiet nights at anchor in the most beautiful and unspoiled bays of the island.

The itinerary may be subject to changes due to weather conditions and/or technical or logistical reasons, in order to ensure safety and a pleasant sailing experience for all participants.

Thanks to the seafaring experience and the adorable affability of the skipper Luca, we guests (3 strangers) felt at home from day one! It was a real pleasure to experience the sea as much as possible, spending almost always the night in the peaceful roadsteads of Elba. During the trip, Luca showed us the landscapes, history and peculiarities of his beautiful island. Thanks to a bit of favorable wind, we happily sailed during some trips. The best skipper and trump buddy ever! Thank you Luca and Buon Vento 🌬

Although it was the first time on a sailing boat, it was like coming home, to a person I had known forever. I rediscovered the essence of life: the joy of being together, the sharing of the table, the depth of encounters and the connection with nature. I enjoyed infinity sleeping lulled by the waves under a roof of sky and doing the figurehead at the bow. Luca is an extraordinary man as well as an excellent skipper in love with his land. He is a storyteller He is humble, generous and welcoming He smiled and laughed in the sun He has a heart as big as the world Sailing is his dress and his home If you want to immerse yourself in a holiday that is also a mystical journey, do not hesitate to set sail on the [hidden].

5-Star Skipper !! Luca was born at sea, and for generations they have breathed sailing and sea! An exquisite and exceptional person, he accompanied us for a week to discover the most beautiful places on the Island of Elba, his land that he knows perfectly. We also had the opportunity to go around with his boat "[hidden]", which also passed on to me the history of his family, it is a very familiar and serene environment. I highly recommend trying the sailing experience on Elba with Luca.
