Give this experience a try!

This experience, in a nutshell

A holiday out of the ordinary, on a sailing boat, with a few friends, that's the concept!

On board a boat set up with love and skill by Massimo and Corinna, owners and crew, with all those comforts and accessories that a normal and anonymous charter boat cannot offer. Together they will supervise the manoeuvres, the navigation, the kitchen, but above all you will be the crew, the protagonists.

Your wishes are the first thing to pack!

Those who have no experience will be able to learn the notions of sailing and the sea, the more experienced will be able to share experiences and refine techniques. The synthesis is to experience the sea from the sea.


THE FORMULA

COMFORT, privacy and adequate space are our concept of a boat, which is why we recommend cruising in pre-built groups of up to four people, divided into two comfortable cabins: a large owner's cabin in the bow with two bathrooms and a double cabin in the stern with a large private bathroom. Alternative configuration for 5/6 people in the two double aft cabins and a smaller forward cabin, all with private bathrooms. Joint management of the boat, coordinated and assisted by the crew.

We offer the FULL CHARTER formula


DODECANESE

Islands that are the offspring of ancient civilizations, classical legends and Hellenic heroes, but also among the most beautiful landscapes on the planet. This archipelago consists of about 220 islands and islets scattered in the Aegean Sea, of which 24 are inhabited. Maybe it's because of the particular light that surrounds them, the whiteness of the houses, the blue of the domes of the churches like the blue of the sea, the romantic streets full of flowers and life or the warm welcome of the Greeks, visiting the Cyclades is definitely a dream trip.

12 islands in the archipelago between Turkey and the Cyclades: the Dodecanese is a chapter in itself.

Islands that were part of the Eastern Roman Empire, governed by the Genoese, who fortified the islands making Rhodes impregnable to the Turks, who tried numerous times to conquer it, succeeding in 1522 and maintaining control until 1912, when during the Italo-Turkish war culminating in the occupation of Libya, Italy decided to hasten the end of the war by occupying the Dodecanese, making it the "Government of the Italian Aegean Islands". After 8 September 1943, the Dodecanese was attacked by the Germans who did not want to provide the Allies with a base of operations for the attack on Greece. It was not until 1947 that the Dodecanese islands were finally returned to Greece.

Today these islands preserve the signs of the various dominations and a strong Greek characterization, making them fascinating and very interesting, islands with crystal clear sea and coasts with beautiful coves, marinas and small villages on the sea that remain in the heart.

We will sail among the most beautiful of those in the North, avoiding the crowded Kos. The magic of Greece is contained in these small corners of the world, where losing the sense of time is normal.

Walking around the Cyclades - Exclusive boat

We had the most amazing family vacation around the Cyclades islands with Max and Cori this summer. Knowledgeable and accommodating at all times, they made our week with them the best and most memorable ever. They know the best islands, local tavernas, beautiful private beaches and coves. They even taught my husband how to sail and allowed me and my daughter to take the wheel. The whole week we spent with them was unforgettable, the food delicious and we can’t wait to do it again!

Esperienza meravigliosa all'insegna del relax, divertimento ma soprattutto alla scoperta del mare e della vita in barca a vela. Massimo e Corinna ci hanno fatto vivere un'avventura indimenticabile! La nostra settimana a bordo della bella e confortevole "io e te" è volata! Ripensiamo con nostalgia a questa splendida vacanza alla scoperta del mare, del vento e del buon cibo! Grazie alla loro esperienza ci hanno portato in splendide spiagge e calette mozzafiato dove abbiamo potuto rilassarci con un bel libro, passeggiare sulle isole, visitare cittadine di mare e/o fare snorkelling alla scoperta delle meraviglie del mediterraneo, o ancora, divertirci con il windsurf e il SUP ! Insomma ce n'è per tutti i gusti ! È stato bellissimo poter partecipare alle manovre durante la navigazione ed abbiamo anche avuto il privilegio di vedere dei splendidi delfini nel loro habitat naturale! Un grande grazie è stato bellissimo vivere il mare con voi ! A presto Giulia, Nathy, Mattia, Andrea e Giuliano

Cyclades & Microcicles: Wonders of the Aegean Sea - Boat 15mt

Vacanza indimenticabile con uno skipper di rara esperienza e simpatia! Massimo ci ha fatto veleggiare tra alcune isole di una bellezza mozzafiato: una vacanza che ha unito la possibilità di vedere calette stupende con ad una buona dose di divertimento, risate e buon cibo. Consiglio Massimo come skipper specialmente per chi la barca a vela la vuole vivere a 360° coniugando la voglia di vacanza a quella di "imparare" a vivere il mare da un'altra prospettiva. La passione di Massimo per la barca a vela e il mare è stata trasmessa a tutto l'equipaggio fin dalla prima traversata. Mi sento di consigliare Massimo al 200% e sicuramente torneremo a bordo della sua fantastica barca per nuove avventure e traversate insieme. Buon vento caro Skipper e grazie mille per la bellissima esperienza!

Massimo ist really a "sea expert" and with him I had the chance to learn a bit more about sailing and about the sea. I recommend this holiday!!
