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

Our itinerary

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.

First experience on a sailing boat and the week with Luca makes me say "if I had done it before!!". He is a competent and prepared skipper, available and always ready to answer needs and questions. Wonderful company of the other travel companions and beautiful places. To be repeated 1000 more times.

Elba is a beautiful land, the sea alternates between green and blue and embraces the granite rocks that descend steeply into its depths. Luca is a real sailor, the wind and the sea are his true life companions, he skillfully juggles between peaks and knots to take his boat everywhere. He is a pleasant guide because he loves and knows his island and this allows you to appreciate it.

Despite the bad weather it was a beautiful and pleasant week! The most beautiful of all boat experiences. Luca is a fantastic Skipper, attentive, prudent and above all helpful. A very kind person. The boat, although small in size, is fantastic! Much more spacious and comfortable than other boats I have tried, larger. It has everything you need. The other 2 guests Emanuele and his son federico, 2 nice nice people. We had a great time. Everything perfect.
