This experience, in a nutshell

A new SAILBOAT adventure to discover the SEA OF SARDINIA among wild lands, archaeological sites, pristine beaches.
Sun, marine activities, friendships, loves, joy, relaxation, music and relaxing navigation to discover everything, everything that is called BEAUTY .

After the very green island of Elba (first stage of this journey) we will break the 12 hours of navigation with a stop in the middle of the sea, away from everything, at the Lighthouse of the Rock of Africa to continue in the surreal silence, under a celestial vault as you have never seen, to reach LAVEZZI early in the morning.

The extreme south of Corsica and the north of Sardinia will welcome us with their gigantic granite sculptures and their calm and transparent waters. We will slowly discover the beaches of BUDELLI, RIZZOLI, SANTA MARIA, LA MADDALENA and CAPRERA .

Pushed with full sails by the summer wind we will descend further south entering the heart of the Sardinian sea towards the smallest state in the world, the Queen of Sardinia, the island of TAVOLARA . A growing amazement, wonder and desire to dive will arise from our eyes upon arrival in SAN TEODORO, OROSEI, CALA LUNA, GOLORITZE .

Reached the Port of ARBATAX we will continue to explore the whole SOUTH EAST COAST to the extreme South, VILLASIMIUS , to taste local foods, participate in cultural events, songs, dances, excursions and guided tours that will also become part of our unforgettable journey .

And then they, the dolphins , the protagonists of this parallel dimension , the sea, where even time passes differently, almost forgotten, marked solely by the rising and setting of the sun.
They will often guide us, they will be present in our videos, in our souvenir photos ... and then they will feel their nostalgia for winter.
Nostalgia for that freedom that we will have shared with strangers, strangers that we will hold tightly against that last day when we reluctantly should part as indivisible friends .
They, the dolphins, the protagonists of the sea, are still there waiting to greet us again. They will come close to us and meet our eyes as joyful readers of our hearts .

See you soon, Luca.

Seductive weekend on a sailing boat on the island of Elba

Gruppo e posti meravigliosi, peccato per la barca che necessitava di manutenzione, da rivedere anche la pulizia che è la cosa più importante.

Esperienza positiva relativa al gruppo e ai posti incantevoli che l’Isola riesce a regolare che sono stati “ L’ ALBERO “ portante di questo viaggio. La barca lasciava molto a desiderare riguardo pulizia trovata nel momento dell’imbarco senza parlare degli innumerevoli disagi avuti a bordo. Tengo a precisare che non sia stata la mia prima esperienza in barca a vela , quindi pur essendo in possesso di tantissimo spirito di adattamento ( avuto da tutti i compagni di viaggio) tengo a precisare che dormire con la puzza di gasolio in cabina ( cito solo uno dei tanti disagi avuti) non è il top! Forse sarebbe il caso che la barca venga revisionata 😉

L'aspettativa di questo "seducente" weekend in barca a vela è stata disattesa: all'ultimo minuto Luca si è rimpiazzato con un amico skipper, poco male perché ci siamo trovati bene, ma pensavo di navigare con lui. In effetti sin dall'inizio la comunicazione non è stata lineare, dal sito non si palesava la remota possibilità di cambiamenti, al contrario Luca si è presentato bene! La barca pur essendo strutturalmente vecchia è valida, ma non ha rispettato i requisiti che Luca ha richiesto all'equipaggio in chat: pulizia e ordine. Si è presentato un problema costante in sentina, per cui a tratti c'erano delle folate di odore di miscela e il sostituto skipper ogni poco era a svuotare la sentina. Lo spirito di adattamento dell'equipaggio (9 in tutto), ha reso l'esperienza unica, ed io di buon grado ho dormito nel sacco a pelo nel pozzetto sotto un cielo stellato, peccato che la dinette esterna fosse più corta di me! (L'alternativa era dormire in cuccetta in tre strette come sardine).

Mi dispiace tantissimo dover dare questa valutazione complessiva perché la destinazione e il gruppo sono stati veramente strepitosi. Abbiamo trovato da subito un affiatamento incredibile e ci siamo trovati d'accordo sempre su tutto, e non è affatto scontato, trovandosi in 9 in così poco spazio (troppi 9 per lo spazio a disposizione su questa barca!). Il principale tasto dolente purtroppo è stata la gestione di Luca. Ci ha avvisato solo un giorno prima di partire che non ci sarebbe stato lui, ma sarebbe stato sostituito da Mauro (che si è fatto in 4 poveraccio ma in alcune situazione è stato anche lui in difficoltà). Il motore della barca perdeva olio internamente quindi c'era un gran puzzo d'olio all'interno. La barca era molto sporca e i ripiani erano pieni di roba scaduta e semiconsumata lasciata lì chissà da quanto tempo. Il motore del tender non partiva, per fortuna cercando informazioni sul manuale online sono riuscito a farlo partire io altrimenti non saremmo mai potuti scendere a terra o portare in spiaggia chi non sapeva nuotare. A bordo cera un sup, ma c'era solo mezzo remo. Oltre a tutto questo, quando abbiamo manifestato a Luca il nostro disappunto per queste cose, sia durante il nostro viaggio tramite messaggio, sia una volta a terra dove lo abbiamo finalmente incontrato al nostro sbarco, il suo atteggiamento è stato quello di minimizzare tutti i problemi. Detto questo, per fortuna lo spirito del gruppo e la bellezza dell'isola d'Elba hanno comunque vinto e siamo riusciti a buttare tutto sul ridire e portarci a casa un weekend fantastico. Peccato solo che con un po' di cura in più da parte di Luca (sia della barca che della comunicazione), sarebbe stato veramente stratosferico.
