Overall, we had a really nice time! Especially our crew with skipper Sebastiano and all fellow sailors was a lot of fun! It was a nice trip together, swimming in the crystal clear water and diving with the many fish in the north of Corsica is just wonderful! I have to give one restriction for the boat. We got a different boat than originally announced, which was simply very old (over 25 years) and accordingly in some places also limited functionality and without comfort. We bought a second pot and plates. When sailing in stronger winds, we were careful because our skipper rightly did not want to challenge the stability of the old boat (a Beneteau First 40.7). The boat was actually a bit too small for 7 crew members, so 45 feet would certainly have been more coherent. Nevertheless, we are happy that we made this trip and very satisfied! They are simply great people who have come together here... Many thanks for this trip to our skipper Sebastiano and the great crew! Florian

The experience with Iacopo was overall very positive. He is an exceptional person, with a deep knowledge of the boat and the sea, capable of transmitting his great passion for sailing to the whole crew. Together with him we had a really good time. However, I leave some constructive ideas that, if improved, would make the holiday perfect for future guests: Alternative planning: Due to bad weather we could not reach Corsica, falling back on the Island of Elba. On this occasion there was no real well-structured "Plan B": we found ourselves making very long crossings (over 3 hours) without clear stops or intermediate stops for a swim in some cove. Relaxation management: Iacopo was often apprehensive about the wind, sometimes putting us in a bit of a hurry when we would have preferred to enjoy the tranquility of the sea. He is very good at making decisions, he just has to learn not to be conditioned by time pressure and to relax more. Comfort of the boat: The boat is correct, but it needs some small precautions to ensure adequate comfort for the crew (for example, an awning for shade is a fundamental detail that should be fixed). Iacopo has all the credentials to become a skipper of 10 cum laude in the very near future

Corsica was the planned destination, but the weather conditions did not allow us to reach it and so we stayed between Tuscany and the Island of Elba. Nothing to dispute about the choice to privilege safety: the skipper proved to be competent, prudent and attentive to navigation, and the decisions made in this sense were understandable. However, I would have appreciated a prior communication on the change of itinerary, since the evolution of the weather was already known before the start, perhaps with a short call to better manage the expectations of the group and avoid the moments of tension that inevitably arose. On a personal level, I sometimes found little willingness to confront and a certain nervousness in the face of the legitimate observations raised by some participants. Finally, the return was brought forward by a day due to bad weather. This choice is also understandable, but, considering the change of destination and the early end of the holiday, I would have appreciated some form of recognition of the difference compared to the experience initially purchased.
