This experience, in a nutshell

A day of technical and didactic outing with a latest generation Hanse, armed with a Code Zero, with lots of electronics, in which we discuss and try to manage together the angle of attack, catenary, grease and warping with Vang Sheeting, with Tesabase, Backstay and Stiff Halyard. An outing for those who already know how to drive a traditional sailboat and perhaps also have a boat license and who want to try the TRIM of a modern rig. For everyone, the discovery of a more intuitive way of managing the sails inspired by the driving of the North Un.


Departing from Marina del Fezzano, one of the favorite ports for sailing schools, it is a day dedicated to field education, we turn in the Gulf of La Spezia in search of the most suitable wind, everyone is called upon to get busy. The skipper does not act as a teacher but makes his experience available to everyone for many small tricks in the different gaits, so as to manage the boat in a safe and pleasant way, both in a team and even totally alone, perhaps trying to do better than the Polari provided by the builder.


This is a technical day, for those who prefer to relax watch the program "A day all sailing in the Gulf of Poets".




There is a

multi-storey car park at the Fezzano roundabout, otherwise there is a slightly more expensive car park at the Marina.


Bring shoes with clean white soles not marking and sailing gloves; lunch not included while water/coke/wine/beer are available ready in the fridge!


Participants: picnic to be consumed on the boat, € 10 to be divided among the participants for each hour of motor

Cesare e un marinaio d'altura esperto, con totale fiducia abbiamo vissuto un'avventura miravigliosa durante il nostro viaggio di nove giorni. E simpatico e ha un grande senso dell'umorismo. E molto attento alle esigenze dei suoi ospiti e cerca di includerli in tutte le arrivita sulla barca. Mi uniro volentieri a Cesare in un viaggio futuro!

Giornata in barca a vela tra l’isola di Palmaria e Portovenere in compagnia del saggio e preparato Cesare. Ci ha sapientemente spiegato i principi della navigazione a vela e ci ha permesso di supportarlo in qualche gesto tecnico durante la navigazione della sua nuovissima barca. Bellissima esperienza.
