Central Dalmatian islands: Amazing week on a sailing boat

Carlo combines technical skills in the management of the boat with outstanding qualities in the management of the group. That is why my opinion is very positive. Some notes should be made to the boat, not his, but provided by the owner, perhaps not very suitable for cruising and with some work to do ... In essence, however, I would keep an eye on the other holidays where Carlo is indicated as skipper! Good.

Carlo is a skipper of great skill and professionalism! He took us to great places and managed to solve all the problems that the weather conditions and the boat itself presented. I recommend it!

First sailing holiday all 4 together (we have a 10 year old girl and a 7 year old boy) and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience! We had so much fun and thanks to Carlo we were able to enjoy the sea and the exceptional place as privileged, experiencing the sea and becoming one with it and with the tremiti fish. We saw nice seats and shared good time with Carlo and the rest of the crew really special. We appreciated the professionalism of our skipper, his approach with us and with the children, the firmness in the rules relating to safety and the availability of making us see the places we liked and in trying to meet everyone's needs. We hope to repeat the experience again.

Carlo is not only a skipper: he is an excellent host, who welcomes you with elegance, and professionalism and leads you to the discovery of these wonderful islands with the safety of the experienced sailor and those who know these places very well.we managed to see beautiful coves and bathe in wonderful waters without crowds (which we thought impossible) and we circumnavigated the islands by sail! Not to mention the excellent dinner on the ground, which will remain memorable. Surely we will come back for another ride to Tremiti and Gargano, but only if Carlo brings us!!

Carlo made us discover the paradise of Tremiti with great professionalism and passion. A very serious and prepared skipper, a lover of the Sea and sailing, who made us live three fantastic days of sea, from the most hidden beaches, to the morning baths without the crowding of the other boats, from the excellent dinner in San Nicola, up to the splendid sailing. Kind, caring, helpful, nice and ready to listen and fulfill all our wishes. A safety and a guarantee for a wonderful sailing holiday.

We have just returned from a tour of a few days between the tremors and the Gargano. In addition to the notorious and undisputed wonder of the places, our note of merit and our most important thanks go to the skipper Carlo who accompanied us in all respects during this week. We couldn't have asked for anything better. Prepared, polite, always kind and helpful. Attentive to our every need. And, not least, very attentive and tender with my daughter (6 years old). He transmitted to us his passion for sailing, making us fall in love with this experience. We absolutely recommend this tour and above all we recommend Carlo.

Beautiful holiday, the Tremiti are lovely. Carlo proved to be not only a skipper of great competence and experience, a very pleasant and very courteous person. I recommend the holiday and especially the skipper.

From 3 to 5 July we had a beautiful cruise to the Tremiti, we had a great time. Carlo excellent skkiper, attentive and patient. The boat great, very clean and comfortable. Surely we will repeat the experience!

Last weekend we had our first boat experience with our 5 and 7 year olds and we had a great time! Our skipper Carlo, thanks to his great experience for a lifetime, has guaranteed high comfort and very high safety both in navigation and mooring. For the duration of the holiday he was available, very attentive to the needs of all of us and very good with our children. The boat is very nice, spacious clean and above all kept very well in every little detail. We hope to repeat it as soon as possible. Highly recommended!!!

4 nights on a sailboat, very pleasant. Islands a bit bare, but if experienced by boat, are a beautiful discovery, enchanting coves and sea. Carlo excellent skipper, attentive and caring about everything. Our children aged 4 and 7 were thrilled with the experience. To be recommended, even for families.

It was a fantastic holiday full of adventure AND fun between nature and relaxation between baths and moments of sharing .... I felt at home.... Carlo a wonderful person very prepared and very attentive to the needs of the guests .... the boat very comfortable and clean.... I would say I can't wait to go up ..... good wind .... Francesca Fabrizio Francesco ..... a heartfelt hug to Carlo

It was the holiday I was looking for, fascinating places, crossings in the open sea, nature and a pinch of adventure. Thanks to Carlo for sharing with us the "secrets" of sailing, it was a pleasure to be part of the crew, work together to carry out the maneuvers, steer and learn to make a lover's gassa as it should be!

Sailing cruise to say the least spectacular, with stops at places that deserved to be visited. All combined with a group of very helpful and impeccable people in the activities at sea! The boat had the right spaces for life on board and did not lack any comfort. The skipper has always proved to be up to every situation, even in night crossings, as well as very experienced in navigation in the area.

We visited beautiful places. The skipper is very skilled in sailing. The boat, however, was not very clean and, unlike other cruises we participated in, the skipper did not take care of the preparation of meals and the reorganization of the kitchen, activities that were left exclusively to the participants. ------------------------------- RESPONSE OF THE SKIPPER ----------------------------------------------- Despite the written explanation received from the coordinators of Sailsquare, Gaudenzio continued to demand that the skipper act as a hostess (when this was not provided for in the card and in the price); he also forgot that the skipper still did an undue cooking shift on the 20.8 evening. On the subject of cooking, I also noticed that, together with his companion Caterina, he has always covertly criticized methods and choices concerning what others were preparing to cook, creating a considerable destabilization on board. On the subject of cleanliness on board, Gaudenzio never mentioned to me that the boat did not have the standard of cleanliness he expected - also because I would have promptly intervened on specific indications - but I never saw him participate, as others did, in any small cleaning activity on board after baths / eating, except in the evening in which they cooked him and Caterina. I believe, however, that doing 320 miles in 6.5 days with a 12-meter boat in 7 people, fishing, cooking, eating on board and with Gaudenzio and Caterina who have always pretended to sleep until after 09.00 (so I can not do anything until that time to make no noise) it is difficult for a skipper to keep the boat "shiny" !!!! I add, since the review appears, at the moment, "out of the choir", that I noticed a total absence of team spirit and that Gaudenzio and 'completely isolated in the cabin for long hours with his partner almost completely disinterested in the activities to support the management of the boat (in particular those evening / night). Although certainly a nice and pleasant person, I would not welcome Gaudenzio on board again, in particular if accompanied by Caterina, as the two did not appear to me suitable for the "life on board" in the presence of the needs of other people.

Really wonderful holiday! Very nice travel companions, Carlo excellent skipper, nice and easy-going! Croatia is a heavenly place... to be redone!!!

Very nice cruise: a boat in very good condition and comfortable, a very competent and friendly skipper, a crew at the top and a magnificent circuit through Croatia ... Thank you!!!

Thank you Carlo for a great holiday!!! I discovered Croatia with all its wonders; the blue cave, Split, waterfalls, small ports and old towns!! and thank you for these beautiful hours of navigation...

Carlo is a professional from whom you can draw the culture of the sea ... From how to sail to how to be together! It was a nice holiday. Dalmatia is beautiful and Carlo knows how to make you appreciate it!

It was a great holiday. Carlo is an experienced sailor and an eclectic skipper. Sailing with great fluency (he knows Dalmatia very well) he alternated tourist moments with pure sailing: beautiful "ride" with sustained mistral and "Gennakerata" on the way back. With Carlo I had fun, I relaxed and I had the opportunity to enrich my sailing culture. Finally, I would add that the boat is very beautiful, comfortable, fast sailing and equipped with a splendid red Gennaker. Thanks Carlo.

There is little to say about Carlo: very good on all fronts, experienced, competent, helpful and patient, able to promptly solve any problem. Great for those who want to take the opportunity to learn something about sailing, super boat!
