Very positive experience. I returned home regenerated!!! Hospitality, organization, accommodation, competence, advice and teachings during navigation really of quality. Skipper also very prepared in managing situations and people, always available to teach us, to involve us with trust in a nice way. and fun. Good weather, just the right wind, and great luck with travel companions known on the spot but who turned out to be very nice and with whom we shared laughter both on board and good times on land. Highly recommended everything. Thank you guys for this nice mini holiday.

Great if you are really interested in sailing in an immersive way! Federico, the skipper, is a cultured person and very prepared on the subject: he satisfies every kind of curiosity about sailing. He has a decisive character, sometimes tough, but he knows how to meet the requests of the crew and gives good advice on what to visit.
